3 y gr c Dark Angel – Anna Law (Neil)
High class 2 year old, he made his debut at Tipperary in April last year, winning a 5f maiden by ½ l from Wodao, then followed up in May at Naas taking a 5f stakes race by ¾ l from Mehar. He was then a bit disappointing at Royal Ascot when 7th, beaten 4 ¾ l behind The Ridler in the 5f group 2 Norfolk stakes, then was 5rd in a 5f listed race at Tipperary, beaten a short neck in a 3 way photo behind Wodao.
He then went to Chantilly and stepped up to 6f in a 6g group 2 finishing 2nd beaten 3l by stablemate Blackbeard, then in August won a 6f group 3 at Deauville, beating Manhattan Jungle (received 4lb), 1l. 3 weeks later he was third in the 6f Group 1 Prix Morny at Deauville, beaten 2l behind by Blackbeard again. He finished the season with a 2nd in the 6f Group 1 , Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket, again beaten 2l by Blackbeard.
He should win decent sprint races again this season.
