Absolute Star (Dark Angel x Absolute Blast filly) opened her account this afternoon at Doncaster by winning the Weekend Winners On At The Races Handicap over 1m. The 4yo filly has been disappointing on the whole as I had high hope each time she has run. Her 3 Novice runs were all decent but since then she had been beset with niggling problems. However this time around she got a clean run into the race with regards training and won well in the end. Always in the right place she had a smooth run through the race before making slightly hard work of it, she won the race well in the end by 1 & 1/2 lengths from Cancan In The Rain. We will see what the handicapper does to her and let her progress through out the rest of the season. Lets hope Absolute Star can build on this as she is a filly I've always held in some regard. 

DAYDREAM EXPRESS became a stakes winner bred by AppleTree Stud yesterday when she won the Siedler & Kowalski Malermeister GmbH Hoppegartener Stuten-Meile (Listed Race) at Hoppegarten in Germany this afternoon. DAYDREAM EXPRESS was sold at Book 2 in Tattersalls October sale 2021 for 300,000gns to Blandford Bloodstock and John Gosden, she did not quite scale the heights for the Gosden team and was offered for resale when sold out to Germany. The whole family have took time and she is realizing her potential having turned 5 this year, she is already a winner of 4 races before this success we hope there is more to come.

Blast The Dream followed up her recent success at Southwell by snatching victory at Newcastle this evening by the shortest of margins. She manage to win the Best Odds Guaranteed At BetMGM Handicap over 1 mile by a short head from West Tyrone. Although she travelled well through out the race she hit a flat spot at about the 2 furlong pole where her opposition got first run on her. Jack Mitchel balanced her well and once she had got her act together she really was motoring at the line to win on the nod. The race will bring out more improvement we hope as she is still learning her job and we look forward to seeing what the handicapper does before making a plan, although there is sure to be a little break on the horizon before a summer campaign.

Blast The Dream opened her account early yesterday evening when winning the  5 pm Win £1M With BetMGM's Golden Goals Fillies' Novice Stakes (GBB Race) over 1 mile at Southwell. Given a nice smooth ride by Jack Mitchell she did the job nicely winning by a  strong 1 and 3/4 lengths. Blast The Dream will probably have a little break now before a summer turf campaign.
