As we stated in an earlier post: 5 Frankel 2yos to Follow in 2019 there will always be a surprise or two. It is with great delight we mentioned Ilka Gansera-Leveque has a Frankel two-year-old housed at St Wendred's Stable, Newmarket. Amtiyaz is a bay colt out of an unraced mare who used to be in training with William Haggas, in the same ownership with Mr Saleh Al Homaizi & Mr Imad Al Sagar. He was sold at the yearling sales for 200,000gns. I'm so willing for this March foal to have ability and put Gansera-Leveque on the map. Such a lovely lady, hard-working, and a qualified vet among her many talents.
Great to see trainers big and small having a chance to shine.
Having a quick look at Frankel's categorised by trainer I was surprised to see Sir Michael Stoute has a bumper crop of potential stars.
In fact, he has 10 Frankel 2yos at Freemason Lodge Stables.
