Gold Star Hero
Race entries
Following the huge success story for us last Summer, that was RED ZONE HERO, (now racing in Hong Kong, with the new name of HELENE WARRIOR) in winning twice and showing himself to be a virtual pattern class performer, his FULL BROTHER was always going to be firmly on our radar at Book 2 of the Tattersalls yearling sales.
Training update: A beast of a horse who looks guaranteed to improve as a 3yo next year he looks like he could make up into either a top class sprint handicapper (he’s ALL speed) or maybe, even, a Group performer. Lead them a merry dance last time in the LISTED Harry Rosebery Stakes for 4f of the 5f contest. Next year could easily seem him graduate into a black type performer.

Red Zone Hero aside, this colt is also a half-brother to the Group 1 performer Son Of Rest and being by STARSPANGLEDBANNER., our colt could represent exceptional value in a year or two’s time, having been knocked down in our direction for 100,000gns.
Starspangledbanner is now the sire of 7 Group 1 winners after Beauty Eternal won the £2m Group 1 Champions Mile in Hong Kong on April 28th: https://www.racingpost.com/bloodstock/seven-up-for-starspangledbanner-as-beauty-eternal-makes-group-1-breakthrough-aEdSv1K1MYgX/
We definitely weren’t disappointed when we went to view him, in fact we’d happily pigeonhole him as a much better model that his year older sibling. Having recently sold Red Zone Hero for a multiple six figure sum, to continue his racing career in Hong Kong, we knew we’d have to dig pretty deep, given the pedigree update* and horse model upgrade. Who better to send the colt to, than Red Zone Hero’s trainer, the Epsom Derby winning trainer, Michael Bell?
