Born To Sea impresses in Listed debut win
Sea The Stars’ half brother Born To Sea made a taking debut to win the Listed The Irish Field Blenheim Stakes at The Curragh today, subsequently earning varying quotes for next year’s 2,000 Guineas. Sat 10th Sep
I did my best to tell everybody that he wasn't expected to win first time and not to be expecting too much!. His brother (Sea The Stars) was beaten first time out and we don't send them out to win first time - it's about getting a nice experience. The first run is about education. To win a Listed race first time is pretty good. He's more precocious then his brother and could have been out earlier - as early as April. We deliberately waited with him until July when the plan was to run here on Oaks weekend but he got sore shins the week before the race. Here he is, much later than he should have been, and this wasn't an ideal day as he doesn't like the wind much. However, he has the ability to overcome these things and Johnny said the pace was slow and he did well to quicken off that pace. He won comfortably and was quite green, which is understandable.
