Melbourne, March 29 – Melbourne racegoers at Sandown on Wednesday could not help but be impressed by the win of exciting prospect Here de Angels, a $90,000 purchase for Slade Bloodstock from the draft of Yarraman Park Stud at the 2005 Magic Millions Yearling Sale.
The lightning fast son of Dehere (USA) sped over the 1000 metre journey in a mind blowing 54.67 seconds, becoming the first horse to break 55 seconds at the track.
Second throughout, the Lee Freedman trained three year-old powered clear over the concluding stages to win by three lengths prompting jockey Corey Brown to declare he’d been ‘low flying’.
Here De Angels has now won four out of four starts and seems back on track after self destructing at the barrier on January 27, when he went berserk and ended up taking no part.
Sent for remedial schooling he appeared a much calmer competitor on Wednesday and the indication is that he may go to Adelaide for a race or two over their carnival.
By Dehere (USA) from the Kenmare (Fr) mare Angelic Belle, Here de Angels was purchased privately as a foal from his breeder Lisa Randle and raised at Yarraman Park.
Yarraman Park will present an outstanding colt by Dehere (USA) at the 2007 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale.
Lot 424, is an eye catching chestnut colt from the Group Two winner Raise a Rhythm and is a full brother to Listed winner Oamaru Rhythm.
