Fast N Famous Proving Just the Ticket for Adrian Clark

24 February 2012

WS sire Fast N Famous is proving just the ticket for well-known Cambridge based bloodstock consultant, Adrian Clark.

In 2010, Clark purchased 5 yearlings at the National Select Sale on behalf of Nearco Stud, two of which being fillies by Fast N Famous.

On Saturday, both of these fillies line up in the Gr.3 Lowland Stakes (2100m) at Hawke’s Bay.

The first selected yearling, now called Consummate (see picture as yearling), earned her place in the field by smartly shedding maiden ranks over 2000m at Riccarton Park by 1 ¼ lengths last week.

The second entry has gone a step further still and is none other than January’s electric Gr.3 Desert Gold Stakes (1600m) winner, Quintessential.

The Corner with Garry Chittick

My wife views my daily activities, never a week passes without “why are you in such a hurry?”. Well, I respond, I have used a great deal more time than I now have available. I believe the message, race a horse whilst you can remember the jockey’s name should be implanted as an enjoyable addition to our bucket list.
