Cracking Man

Purchased from the Goffs Premier Yearling Sale, where we purchased our Group 1 winner and Champion European 2yo 2013; TOORMORE Group 2 winner VENTURA TORMENTA and dual Group 2 winner KOOL KOMPANY.
One of the least fashionably bred colts in the sale, was actually one of the very nicest individuals in the sale, certainly in our top half dozen of all 450 lots. A quite sensational, quality, individual with a big walk, this colt hails from the fantastically successful Mickley Stud (consignors of Havana grey no less). We were delighted when Karl and Kelly Burke approached us at the sale to see if we’d like to share this colt with them, such is the regard that they hold this fabulous colt in, a son of their Group 1 Prix Morny winner, and now stallion, UNFORTUNATELY.
He’s a FULL BROTHER to the sharp 2yo LISTED performer and Karl Burke trained, LOOKING FOR LYNDA. We’re led to believe by the breeders that this colt represents a much better individual than this colt’s elder sibling, suggesting his ability levels could significantly usurp the family’s achievement, to date.

Training Update: Took a little longer to come to hand than expected. We’d once thought he could be an early season 2yo debutant, showing up well on the gallops. He’s still immature, you’d say still green in his races. He will improve and mature both physically & mentally. We’ll carry on over the Winter, so he’s instant action and should earn his corn. Current Timeform Rating 74.
