Derek Brugman of Mayfair Speculators gave us a brief
rundown of the Mayfair offerings:
Lot 1 Valedictorian
“This colt by VAR has had his issues, but he has unlimited
potential.”

Lot 2 Power Of Peace
“He was gelded after his last start, a suggestion by his
jockey who thinks he has lots of ability.”

Lot 8 Morning Catch
“He’s a nice horse who has recovered from injury. He’s back
in full work and doing well.”

Lot 9 Valderama
“Rock Of Gibraltar filly who made a good
debut and was then got caught out by the
turn at Durbanville in her second start. She is looking for further, will win her fair
share of races.”

Lot 10 Dalai’s Promise
“Unraced filly who has had a few gallops for Brett
Crawford, needs a bit of time but he is happy with
what he has seen so far.”

Lot 13 Strategic Power
“Good form prior to his last run, he’s a horse that
could still win a few races.”

Lot 14 Unnamed
“A colt by Trippi out of an Al Mufti mare. He’s a late
maturing horse, a good three-year-old prospect."

Lot 16 Fast Finish
“A very well bred filly by Dynasty who was injured
after her first start, she is over her injury, ready to
race and has shown potential.”

Lot 20 Super Performer
“He is a gelding by Dynasty who won a good race
over 1400m last time and is bred to go 2000m. He’s
a good prospect.”

Lot 21 Lustrous
“A good-looking, unraced two-year-old by Seventh
Rock.”
Lot 22 Clear Winter Day

“A filly by What A Winter who badly needed her last
outing. She shows good ability at home and should
go close next time.”

Lot 24 Jailhouse Rock
“He’s a colt by Dynasty, a nice sort looking for more
ground. He could develop into a decent stayer.”

Lot 26 Silver Coin
“Very well bred debut winner, and recently won
again after being gelded. Derby was too far for him.
A good sprinter miler who is still highly regarded
and will probably now develop into a good horse.”

Lot 28 Seventh Rule
“Consistently placed gelding who has had knee
chips removed. Operation was very successful
according to vet reports and he has a good prognosis
for racing.”

Lot 31 Khopesh
“A very smart, unraced colt by Jackson. Stable likes
him a lot.”

Lot 32 Syndey Opera
“A good broodmare prospect by Bernardini.”

Lot 36 Starflash
“A two-time winner by Pathfork who showed good
ability before below par last few runs.”

Lot 37 The Barry Burn
“He got a superficial injury at stables which required
a bit of stitching but no serious damage was done.
Back in work and should win his races.”

Lot 38 Consul Of War (AUS)
“Back in full training after an injury. Just touched off
after gelding last time, will get a trip and a smart
colt in the making if all goes well.”

ADDITIONAL ENTRY
Bountiful Strength
“Nice colt by Jackson who won last Saturday over a
trip short of his best. Looking for further, could be a
very nice prospect.”

On the funny side

Lot 38 Consul Of War (AUS)

“Back in full training after an injury. Just touched off
