We have seen many remarkable successes from this exceptional racehorse and sire.
But what will 2019 hold for the potential stars of this two-year-old season?
Throughout this formative season, I will update the most notable Frankel two-year-olds (2yos) of this 2019 season.
Worthy of note:
Herman Hesse - John Gosden
This good-looking son of Frankel was well backed on debut at Great Yarmouth but never really figured giving the impression he needed the run. This homebred from Lady Bamford wasn't given a hard race and sure to improve on his second start. Herman Hesse is a lovely physical specimen. Definitely, a horse to keep on side and I suspect will go well take some beating next time out.
Heaven Forfend - Sir Michael Stoute
Quite unusual to see Sir Michael Stoute have an early two-year-old (2yo). It made me consider Royal Ascot is on the cards. Time will tell if that is the case. However, this son of Frankel ran a sterling race on debut at Newbury. Racing in the familiar silks of Cheveley Park Stud, this homebred is out of a six-times winning mare [Heaven Scent] who was similarly owned and trained. A durable racehorse who raced 27 times, winning at Group 3 and placed at Group 1. Heaven Forfend wasn't best served by a wide draw at Newbury, which saw his run on from some way off the pace. He did little wrong finishing runner-up to John Gosden's Light Angel. I can see Heaven Forfend running in the next couple of weeks and expect a bold show. Whether that is at Royal Ascot or an alternative venue, only time will tell.
