Sir Owen and the Go Bloodstock team were thrilled on Saturday as 4yo FRANKEL Colt SIR DELIUS hit the afterburners in the Doomben home straight under top weight to post an impressive win in the Group 3 Chairman’s Handicap. Under a confident ride form Tim Clark and a perfectly executed race by Waterhouse / Bott racing – SIR DELIUS rocketed to the head of the betting markets for the Caulfield & Melbourne Cups.
We are thrilled for all partners involved to see our new acquisition kick off his Australian career in style and all roads now lead to the first Tuesday in November with the Melbourne Cup a race Sir Owen has coveted since placing with SECOND COMING many years ago.
While the Melbourne Cup is THE race, our scopey and lightly raced son of FRANKEL is ever improving and has a big future ahead in the Australian middle-distance / staying ranks. With Cox Plates, Caulfield Cups and Melbourne Cups to consider – we cannot wait for the Spring. The dream is alive.
