Smart three-year-old Public Attention (Written Tycoon) is on a path to the Gr.1 Randwick Guineas (1600m) after an impressive first-up victory in the Gr.3 Eskimo Prince Stakes (1200m) at Randwick on Saturday. Ridden by Chad Schofield, the Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr-prepared son of Written Tycoon sat just off surprise leader Linebacker (NZ) (Super Seth) and forged clear of his fellow Kiwi-bred over the concluding stages to score by just over a length. The well-related grey colt has now won two of his five starts, and previously boasted a Group Three placing behind Angel Capital (Harry Angel) in the Caulfield Guineas Prelude (1400m) before finishing fifth in the Gr.1 Caulfield Guineas (1600m) won by Private Life (Written Tycoon). Racing in the familiar navy blue colours of Coolmore for a syndicate, Public Attention was bought by Tom Magnier for $160,000 from Carlaw Park’s Book 1 yearling draft at Karaka 2023. “I’ve said to the Coolmore boys that he’s a better physical horse this time in,” Price said. “We were nursing a little bit of shin soreness after each run last time in, even after the Caulfield Guineas where he did have every chance, he still pulled up like an immature three-year-old. “We did our best with him last preparation, but he’s a better horse this time in and you saw the benefit of that. “I think the second horse, now gelded, is nearly a Group One horse and I think it is going to be good form. So he goes to the Hobartville (Gr.2, 1400m), into the Randwick Guineas.” Bred by Sir Patrick and Lady Hogan, Public Attention is by Written Tycoon and is the first foal out of the twice-winning Commands mare Legramor (NZ), whose dam Katie Lee (Pins) made New Zealand racing history with her unprecedented double in the Gr.1 New Zealand 2000 Guineas (1600m) and Gr.1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m). “If you have a look at his family, he’s one of Sir Patrick Hogan’s families and it’s a beautiful 1600m New Zealand family, and I think he’s got 1600 written all over him,” Price said. Jockey Chad Schofield nursed the colt around the home corner at his first attempt racing clockwise and was impressed with the feel the colt gave him. “He’s stunning. I loved him since the first time I rode him at track work and then obviously I was really impressed with his two trials,” Schofield said. “He’s just a beautiful colt with a great attitude, great action. He’s lovely to ride and it was great to see him do that today over a distance like that because he’s only going to get better when he gets over further. “He just jumped, put himself on the speed and dropped the bridle as well. I just love the way he flattened out down the straight and was very strong through the line. “He wobbled a little bit around the corner the first time Sydney way, but I just waited for him to gather himself, and then he just kept lengthening really nicely, and he gave me a terrific feel.” View the full article -

Australia took the spoils in Saturday’s eagerly anticipated trans-Tasman sprint clash at Te Rapa as Here To Shock (NZ) (Shocking) and Bosustow (Blue Point) filled the quinella in the Gr.1 BCD Group Sprint (1400m). The presence of 11-race winner Here To Shock and last-start Magic Millions Guineas (1400m) hero Bosustow added international spice to an elite field of sprinters, which also featured top-flight Kiwi talent such as Grail Seeker (NZ) (Iffraaj), Savaglee (NZ) (Savabeel), Luberon (NZ) (Embellish), Waitak (NZ) (Proisir) and Babylon Berlin (All Too Hard). But in the end, the local contingent was unable to repel the Australian invasion. Here To Shock broke only fairly from gate eight, but his star Australian jockey Nash Rawiller allowed him to stride forward down Te Rapa’s long back straight and move into second spot on the outside of Savaglee. Free-going mare Babylon Berlin took up her usual front-running role and clearly led the field up to the home turn, when Here To Shock cruised up alongside her. Rawiller turned his mount loose after the 300m mark and the $500,000 race was all over. Here To Shock roared away, opening up a four-length winning margin. Bosustow finished strongly out of the pack to take second in an all-Australian quinella. Standout three-year-old Savaglee was a long head away in a gallant third, with the same margin back to the fourth-placed Waitak. Here To Shock was the only ride at Te Rapa on Saturday for Rawiller, who is easing back into riding after dislocating his shoulder in a fall on the Sunshine Coast in early January. “I’m rapt to come and win a Group One in New Zealand today,” he said. “I’ve had success whenever I’ve come here in the past. “I’ve had a month off with a bad shoulder injury. I’ve tried to do all the right things coming back from that. I just thought he was the perfect horse to come over and kick off on. It puts a smile on your face when they don’t let you down.” Here To Shock has now had 35 starts for 12 wins, seven placings and more than $2.6 million in stakes. He has won three of his five starts as a seven-year-old this season, including the A$1.5 million Alan Brown Stakes (1400m) and the A$1 million The Supernova (1400m). “I’m a bit blown away by him,” Rawiller said. “He’s shown that he can do that. He’s just racing with so much confidence now and has won some very good races in this preparation. “You sense he could go back to Australia and be very competitive in a Group One while he’s fit and confident and others might still be on their way up. He’s really got his tail up, this horse. He’s turned his career around and he just gives you a lot of confidence going forward.” Here To Shock’s part-owner Rob Slade paid just $70,000 to buy him from Cambridge Stud’s draft at Karaka in 2019. He is trained by Ben, Will and JD Hayes, who are also lining up a shot at the $3.5 million NZB Kiwi (1500m) at Ellerslie next month with Evaporate. “It’s so special to come here and win this race,” Will Hayes said. “I’m just so proud of the team and everyone back home. This horse presented so well on raceday today and it was a terrific ride by Nash. “It’s my first time here at Te Rapa, but with that long run into the first corner, it gave Here To Shock a nice chance to find his rhythm and get across when he could. He got a bit of cover. He was slightly overdoing it early, but as the race went on, he got more and more comfortable and then gave a good kick at the top of the straight. He was really dominant today. “We picked out this race and came over because we thought he was well placed. It’s good to see the form stand up. He’s replicated that good form from his Supernova win. He’s incredibly consistent. “We can’t thank New Zealand racing enough. With the prize-money on offer, it was a no-brainer to come here today. It was a hit-and-run mission on this race, because we’ve got some plans for him in the autumn in either Melbourne or Sydney. We’ll just space his runs, because we know that works for him. “But we’re looking forward to coming back over again next month with Evaporate (NZ) (Per Incanto). Let’s hope we can pinch another one.” Both the BCD Group Sprint and Pakenham’s Supernova are legs of the Sport Nation Champion Sprint Series, which concludes with the Gr.3 King’s Plate (1200m) at Ellerslie on March 8. Here To Shock has now earned 10 points, which gives him an equal lead alongside Gr.1 Sistema Railway (1200m) winner Crocetti (NZ) (Zacinto). Here To Shock completed an incredible Group One double at Te Rapa on Saturday for Rich Hill Stud stallion Shocking, who also sired the equally dominant Herbie Dyke Stakes (2000m) winner El Vencedor (NZ).
