Frankel - Stud Career

[PNkt]

I agree, I don't think he'll be leading sire on number of winners. A lot of mares he has been sent have "traditional" pedigrees and aren't likely to produce early sorts.

Another batch of names and trainers added. Roll on the Flat

Any news about when his first ones are sent out?? Exciting times.

 

[PNkt]

Nothing yet. Gosden has indicated that the Colt out of Chrysanthemum might be ready to run by the end of May.

The impressive looking filly out of Platonic (Ed Dunlop trains) has been named BINT BATAL.

Here's a link to a picture of what she looked like in mid-March

Here's a piece on the owners of Cunco, Don Alberto Corporation Ltd:

Any idea what their silks look like Princess?

 

[Bluesky9]

Cunco ? What sort of name is that?

 

[SaveTheHumans]

Chrysanthemum did well, winning her 1st two starts, over a mile and 7f, along with Frankel's record you would be hopeful Cunco could be up to winning on debut.

Cunco ? What sort of name is that?

It is a commune and city in Chile, and as Don Alberto Corp is based in Chile I am assuming that is where they are at.

But there's nothing dodgy about it, I'm sure they pay all their taxes etc

A bit like calling a horse "Bradford" or "Scunthorpe" I reckon

It looks cold in Chile

I can't find any pictures of the silks at the mo, but apparently they are black and orange.

Anyone care to guess the odds on Cunco ?

 

[TopClass]

Very exciting but let's give him time and let's see how they mature, they're going to be fascinating at 3 and 4 given the mares he's been paired with!

10/11 for you Redcat.
