2023/24 Season Recap

Exciting 3-year-old Ducasse couldn't have been more impressive in breaking his maiden on Wednesday at Warwick Farm. While it may have taken the son of Trapeze Artist seven runs to notch up a win, Ducasse has always shown the stable good talent having been close-up in some of the feature 2-year-old events last Autumn before a narrow third in the G2 Callander-Presnell S. last preparation.&nbsp;<br /><br />First-up off just the one trial, Ducasse began well before being restrained by Tommy Berry to settle at the rear of the field in the running. With the leader setting a strong tempo, the promising colt was able to get into a rolling rhythm before commencing a run on the turn. Afforded a lovely ride by Berry, Ducasse was able to angle into the clear and unleash a powerful turn-of-foot to run out an impressive winner by over two lengths on the line.&nbsp;<br /><br />Speaking after the race, Berry was full of praise for the talented colt suggesting that he has a big preparation ahead. A $280,000 Inglis Easter Yearling Purchase in partnership with Julian Blaxland Bloodstock, Ducasse is a member of the stable's Winkurra Colts Syndicate.​ <br /><br />Congratulations to his winning connections.&nbsp;<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://racing.racingnsw.com.au/FreeFields/VideoResult.aspx?MeetDate=2024Feb07&amp;VenueCode=MTMxMDQw&amp;RaceNumber=2&amp;MeetingCategory=Professional&amp;VideoFileType=FullReplay" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Watch Race Replay</a></span>

DUCASSE A CLASS ABOVE

Consistent 4-year-old gelding Mr Extreme was a tough winner at Kembla Grange on Saturday at his third-up run of the campaign. The lightly raced son of Extreme Choice strung together two decent efforts at his two runs back this campaign and was coming into Saturday's run with fitness on his side.&nbsp;<br /><br />He certainly needed that fitness edge having dictated the race from the onset when setting a strong clip in the early and middle stages. After a reasonably fast run race, the long straight at Kembla Grange may have proved worrying for onlookers but he put it a gutsy effort to stick his nose out and take the race by a small margin on the line.&nbsp;<br /><br />Having had just the nine career starts, Mr Extreme is now a two-time winner and proving to be a consistent galloper for his connections.&nbsp;<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://racing.racingnsw.com.au/InteractiveForm/HorseFullForm.aspx?horsecode=MzMwNDcwMjUwMA%3d%3d&amp;src=horseform&amp;raceentry=ODg4NTI2NTAwMA%3d%3d" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Watch race replay</a></span>
