Tomorrowland completes hat-trick

10 November 2014

Speedster Tomorrowland completed a grand day for WS and their former resident Fast ‘N’ Famous with his victory at Te Rapa. The farm graduate provided the stallion with his third winner on the card following the earlier successes of Arrow In The Sand and Irresistabelle.

Tomorrowland has now won three of his five raceday starts and he didn’t have it easy this afternoon. He was forced to work overtime to lead from a wide gate and held a strong gallop to beat the WS-owned and bred Sports Illustrated, another daughter of Fast ‘N’ Famous.

Trained by Danica Guy, Tomorrowland was bought out of 2012 Karaka Select Sale for $8000. He is a son of the Pins mare Needled, a sister to the Gr 3 Cuddle Stakes winner Rhysess.
