25/26 3 year old season

[hesi]

Despite the doom and gloom merchants, hopefully we will see a vintage season for 3-year-olds.  Like wine, they come along every so often, 22/23 was our last and probably the best in recent times

Legarto - Australian Guineas, Pennyweka - dual Oaks, Prowess - Bonecrusher Stakes, Vinery, Pinarello - Queensland Derby, Sharp 'N' Smart - Derby, Wild Night, Maven Belle, Pier, Devildom, Sacred Satono, Dynastic, Devastate, Desert Lightning, Mark Twain, The Intimidator, Cognito, Waitak, Best Seller, Polygon, Lickety Spilt, Mr Maestro, Cruz Missile, Denby Road.

Let's follow this through over the season and see how it plays out as the Spring racing fast approaches

I'll add in a couple to start

Avantaggia - impressive trial winner at Avondale

Quantum Legend - won like a good horse first up at Te Rapa on Saturday

Avantaggia trial Te Awamutu 26 August 2025

The third horse looks OK too.

I thought Shoma went as well as the winner when running second at Te Rapa, and I will be all over it next time, as they have big raps on the winner.

I like the look of the Roger James trained Steezy, will follow with interest. Trial behind Avantaggia was fairly decent.
