International / 01.04.2023

Doncaster (GB), Saturday

Billy Loughnane, 16, had never been in the saddle on an unraced 2-year-old. This young coach should have a great season. On Saturday, he won the Brocklesby Stakes, the first race for 2-year-olds in England. He contacted Influence of Dodi (Pearl Secret), who behaved like an old veteran for the occasion. Immediately at the head of the line, Robin dominated the 400m from the Brysland resident post. At this time, favorite, Valadero (Starspangledbanner), kept his explosive speed and then made the hole. But Billy Loughnane didn’t give up, and Daddy’s influence managed to find the evidence he needed to track down his rival and dominate him by the neck.

History of Rugby

Toddy’s Impact is named after Scotland’s second-row XV, Toddy Weir, who died in Charcot aged 52 in November. The Associates of the Cross Channel Racing Syndicate have decided to donate half of the colt’s proceeds to the Toddy Weir Foundation. Robyn Brisland can now dream of the first team with Doddie’s Impact: “It really is a lovely story. I really hope his owners have great success with him. Let’s dust off our top hats and think about Royal Ascot…”
