Group 2 Glory for September Yearling Sale

There was Group 2 glory in the Gimcrack Stakes for September
Yearling Sale graduate Cool Hoof Luke at York, adding to the sale’s impressive record of
producing two-year-old winners.

The son of Advertise was dropping back to six furlongs from
seven furlongs, and was ridden with real patience by Oisin Murphy, travelling
into the race strongly and asserting for a three-quarters-of-a-length victory. 

It was a second win for the Andrew Balding trained
two-year-old, who won on his debut at Chelmsford in June. He had shown a high
level of form in his next two starts, finishing fourth in the Group 2 Coventry
Stakes at Royal Ascot, and followed that effort with third in the Group 2
Vintage Stakes at Goodwood.

He was purchased for €20,000 at the 2023 September Yearling
Sale from Vinesgrove Stud by Andrew Balding, and holds an entry in the Group 1
Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket next month.

The 2024 September Yearling Sale will take place on the 24^th
and 25^th of September, with Part II taking place on 26^th
September.
