"A Ripper"
This mature colt by Kbenjar
from the Chariot mare Rippling
Steel looks the part and will be
sure to run as an early two year old.
His pedigree has traditional highlights
with Star Kingdom dominant
in both families and the added bonus of
a double cross to Habitat.
He is also free of any Northern
Dancer bloodlines.
Buyers will be well aware of the speed
and stamina that has been bred into this
colt through the deeds of his sire, Kbenjar,
who won the Listed VRC Sutcliffe Stakes
and possesses an international pedigree.
His trainer, Paul Perry said, “He
was the most promising horse I ever trained.
Truly a Group One performer“. The
colt’s grandsire is the ill-fated
St Covet, the dual Group
I winning sprinter/ miler who won the AJC
Sires Produce, VATC Caulfield Guineas and
the Black Opal Stakes as well as running
2nd to Danzero in the Golden Slipper (G1).
On the mare’s side, the Bletchingly
horse, Chariot, was himself
one of the fastest horses trained by the
legendary mentor Tommy Smith.
This colt is the first foal of Rippling
Steel, a very fast race mare who
won her Maiden by 8.8 lengths. He was born
on 20th October 2004.
