The post-haste start by Cambridge Stud shuttle sire One Cool Cat has risen to even greater heights with his third individual black-type winner within a week coming when
Diglett (One Cool Cat-Rich Gift, by Cadeaux Genereux) scored a short-neck win in the Listed Premio Alberto Giubilo in Rome overnight.
Diglett (ridden by Germano Marcelli) defeated Lui Rei (Reinaldo-My Luigia, by High Estate) & Capo Carbonara (Choisir-Dreaming Rose, by Spectrum).
Last week One Cool Cat was represented by the stakes winners
Knavesmire and
Icesolator.
The 2003 champion European 2yo by Storm Cat, One Cool Cat has had 10 individual winners in his stud career to date in the Northern Hemisphere.''
One Cool Cat's first New Zealand-bred progeny are 2yos in August.
One Cool Cat (USA)
was the leading New Zealand-based first season sire during the Premier session with 24 lots selling for $4,625,000 at an average of $192,708.
Sir Patrick Hogan of Cambridge Stud said the Northern Hemisphere race results being achieved by One Cool Cat's progeny in the Northern Hemipshere will certainly give great encouragement to Australian and New Zealand horse trainers to expect early-running types next racing season.
