This son of Balko is out of a Passing Sale mare and won his maiden by sixteen lengths. He was coming to challenge the long-time leader at the final fence with some purpose before that challenger fell at the last leaving this fellow to come home a wide margin clear of his rivals. It was a classy performance and an ideal debut to see him progress to better things as the way he developed into the race and quickened to challenge and battle will stand to him going forward.
