Kameko 2yo bolts up on debut

Kameko’s juvenile son Highland Ranger, who was born, raised and grazed at Tweenhills, hammered his opponents in a Southwell novice on debut last Saturday. He looks a very smart prospect. 

Highland Ranger started as 6/4 favourite against 13 rivals over 1m on the Tapeta and quickened clear from 2f out to win by 5½ lengths. He’s trained by John and Thady Gosden for Mr and Mrs Manchester and N. Wrigley and was ridden by Rab Havlin. 

Highland Ranger recorded the fastest furlongs for each of the final two, despite being one of six horses who recorded strong fractions over the first furlong. It will be fascinating to see where he goes next. 

Highland Ranger was bred by The Jalela Partnership at Tweenhills, out of winning Canford Cliffs mare Jalela. The mare has also produced very useful winners Our Havana and Bishop’s Crown, both by Havana Gold. 

Highland Ranger was sold by Tweenhills fat the Tattersalls December Foal Sale for 37,000gns to Torard House Stud. He was resold by them at the Tattersalls October Book 2 Yearling Sale for 140,000gns to Blandford Bloodstock. Well done to all those involved with the colt.
