COMMENTS AND PROSPECT:

SATONO ALADDIN was trained by Yasutoshi Ikee with a record of 8 wins, 5 seconds and 3 thirds in 29 starts, winning distance from 1400M to 2000M including the success in 2017 Yasuda Kinen that denied LOGOTYPE and RED FALX with Yuga Kawada in the saddle. SATONO ALADDIN visited HK for three occasions where he finished 11th in 2015 Hong Kong Cup, 7th in 2016 Hong Kong Mile and 11th in 2017 Hong Kong Mile. The son of DEEP IMPACT commenced stud duties in 2018 at Shadai Stallion Station and shuttled to Rich Hill Stud, New Zealand with 6 black type contests winner including New Zealand Oaks and Australian Oaks winner PENNYWEKA, 2023 Karaka Million 2YO champion TOKYO TYCOON. His service fee for Southern Hemisphere in 2023 is NZD$ 45,000 and JPY¥ 1 million for Northern Hemisphere in 2023.

THE ABSOLUTE was purchased by John O'Shea at NZD$ 60,000 in 2022 NZB Karaka Book 1 and got his training in Sydney. He took part in 2 barrier trials where he finished 5th in a 742M session (7th Mar 2023) with James McDonald in the saddle, then won an 800M session (20th Mar 2023) by racing behind the pace under Brett Prebble on good going. The bay colt looks more muscular that his full-brother FLASH POINT while former Caspar Fownes’ top class trainees THE DUKE and SKY FIELD as his dam family members. THE ABSOLUTE should be most effective in middle and sprint events
