Starspangledbanner Juvenile Draws Clear At Newmarket

Sixtygeesbaby (2g Starspangledbanner – Field Of Stars, by Acclamation) built on a promising debut to run out an impressive winner of Friday’s six-furlong novice stakes at Newmarket.

Fourth over the same trip in August, Tom Clover’s charge was well-supported as he took on 10 rivals on his second start. The chesnut raced prominently under Neil Callan and improved to lead before the two furlong pole. Pushed along a furlong later, he went on to win in fine style, recording a winning margin of four lengths.

Owned by O Humphrey, the son of Starspangledbanner was sold by breeder Airlie Stud and Mrs Sonia Rogers as a yearling for €125,000.
