Super
One emerged as one of the new stars of Singapore racing with a barnstorming
debut win in Sunday's S$90,000 Make Your Own Magic 2YO Stakes at Kranji.
A $190,000 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale purchase, Super One also scooped
a S$30,000 bonus for his connections with the race being a leg of the Aushorse
Golden Horseshoe Series.
A member of the Michael Freedman stable, Super One was sent out the warm
favourite after a smashing trial recently and after showing speed throughout he
let his natural ability do the talking and he cruised home for the easiest of
three and a half length wins.
After seeing his youngster win a trial by almost ten lengths, Freedman went
into the race feeling hopeful without being too over confident.
"Barrier is one thing, the race is another."
"He's a natural runner and showed outstanding speed again," Freedman
said.
"I think I will stretch him over longer at some stage, but for the time
being I will stick to short sprints."
Freedman said Super One would run in the next leg of the series on turf in
three weeks before being aimed at the Golden Horseshoe series final.
Winning rider Craig Newitt said Super One was just the horse he was looking
for.
"I've waited for four months to get a good one," Newitt said.
"And I think I've finally got one!"
"He has all the attributes of a very good horse. He's quick, runs fast
sectionals while travelling so relaxed and is so professional even though he's
only two."
Super One is the latest racetrack star for Yarraman Park's sire star I Am
Invincible.
He was purchased by Freedman in partnership with New Zealand based bloodstock
agent Michael Wallace for $190,000 from the draft of Broadwater Thoroughbreds
at the 2014 Gold Coast Yearling Sale.
Super One, raced by Andre Lim of Super Easy fame and other partners, is the
first named foal of his dam, the unraced Tale of the Cat mare Tails Wins and
was bred by Reg Kemister.
Tails Wins is from the six time winning and stakes performed US import Multiple
Wins, a daughter of stakes-winner Princess Sybil from the family of Group I winning
European sprinter Les Arcs, winner of a Royal Ascot Golden Jubilee Stakes.
Tails Wins has a weanling filly and is in foal to Sebring.
Super One was the first leg of a winning double at Kranji for I Am Invincible,
who also sired three year-old filly Divided House to win over 1200 metres for
the Cliff Brown stable.
