Timeform Review
The Two Year Olds So Far This Season
As we head into the Christmas period 24 juveniles have climbed into triple figures in the race for Timeform Champion Two-Year-Old honours.
Earthquake is one of four in the top two-dozen for last season’s Champion Sire Exceed And Excel with stablemates Mohave and Careless sneaking onto the list along with Mick Price’s Jabali.
Price has three of the top two-dozen currently under his care, perhaps the most interesting of his runners the recent debut winner Nordic Duke.
Nordic Duke put up a handy performance on debut and looks a decent contender for Blue Diamond lead-ups but his immediate racing future is under a cloud.
Snitzel sits level with Exceed And Excel on this measure, with four making the list for the son of Redoute’s Choice, headlined by Brisbane-based filly Oakleigh Girl.
Oakleigh Girl, who showed plenty speed winning at Flemington over Cup week, is out of Oakleigh Plate winner Miss Kournikova and is due to step out again this weekend in the Calaway Gal Stakes at Doomben where she will be out to stamp herself as the horse to beat in next month’s Magic Millions.
