3 br c Deer Impact – Rhododendron ( Bob, Cliff, Cod, Martin, Neil, Steve)
Top class 2 year old who made his debut at the Curragh in June last year, finishing 2nd in a 7f maiden, beaten 2 ¼ l by Crypto Force, then got off the mark in July at Naas winning a 7f maiden by 2l from Shadowed. In September at Leopardstown he won a 1m group 2 by 1 ½ l from Caroline Street (received 3 lb), and finished the season with victory in the 1m Group 1 Futurity stakes at Doncaster in October, beating Epictetus 3 ½ l. He holds entries in both the English and Irish 2000Guineas, and both Derbys and will be a major player this season, though with plenty of stamina in his pedigree he is likely to be most effective at 1m2 f to 1m 4f.
