Blackbeard

In Europe, it's been very interesting that Persian Force has really come to the fore in terms of winners.

I suppose he and Blackbeard were really the horses with big numbers and the two-year-old CVs to really sort of be fighting out the first crop size premierships by winners, but it's really been Persian Force that's to the fore at present by winners, but also getting a stakes winners as well.

This is the son of Memas.

He stands at Tally Ho, another just terrific job that the So Callaghan family has done by getting these horses launched.

Very smart.

And again, one of their sires to the fore, as I say, in the first crop sires up there in Europe this year.

Persian Force Blackbeard we've discussed.

Probably the horse that's really uh surprised given his two-year-olds was his bayside boy he's the son of new bay of course this great dubawi line is just absolutely dominating everywhere now bayside boy was a a group one place two year old a group two winning uh two-year-old of a group two uh winning two-year-old for for tam valley for roger varian He of course then trained on to win a Queen Elizabeth stakes as a three year old over a mile.

Nothing.

By Blackbeard, Captain James Cook, he was 100 to 30 on debut show, nothing.

A little bit more for Roscommon on latest.

And kind of...

And he had his first winner in the Juddman's, it looks as well, a big milestone there.

Yeah, and Blackbeard progeny as well.

The best Blackbeard I think to run so far and Blackbeard is a no-name ever.

So it'd be interesting how that works out.

And the relationship with Khaled Abdullah's Judd Monty, the late Khaled Abdullah's Judd Monty operation.
