FIRST FOALS

Toronado a Timeform 133-rated dual mile Group 1 star

TORONADO (IRE) - 2010 bay horse
An unbeaten seven-furlong juvenile Group 2 scorer whom Timeform rated 113p, Toronado became one of the leading milers in Europe at three and four years of age.

One of the fastest and best sons of the dual Derby and dual Breeders' Cup Turf hero High Chaparral (by Sadler's Wells), he stands at the National Stud in Newmarket and covered 152 mares in his first season. He also shuttles to Swettenham Stud in Australia.

He beat Havana Gold by four lengths in the Group 3 Craven Stakes on his seasonal reapperance at three, finished fourth behind Dawn Approach in the Group 1 2000 Guineas at Newmarket, and then failed narrowly against that same rival in the Group 1 St James's Palace Stakes at Ascot before gaining his revenge with a half-length win against the chestnut in the Group 1 Sussex Stakes.

Timeform rated him 133 at three and 127 at four, the latter a season that began with defeat of Verrazano in the Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes at Ascot. He then chased home Kingman in the Group 1 Sussex Stakes, was pipped by Charm Spirit in the Group 1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp and was favourite when finishing down the field behind Karakontie in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Mile on his final start.
His dam, Wana Doo (by Grand Slam), won twice in France, she is a half-sister to the Group 1 Racing Post Trophy winner and successful 2016 freshman sire Casamento (by Shamardal), and she is out of Wedding Gift (by Always Fair), who was a pattern-placed stakes winner in France.

Those who appear in branches of the third generation of the family include the Australian Group 1 scorers French Clock (by Rancho Ruler) and Heart Of Dreams (by Show A Heart), both of who are geldings. Such Style (by Sassafras), Toronado's third dam, was a half-sister to the Grade 1-placed Group 2 Prix Hocquart scorer Regency (by Dancing Brave) and also to Britannia's Rule (by Blakeney), the Oaks-placed Listed Lupe Stakes winner who produced four stakes-winners at stud and whose descendants include the Group 3 Rockfel Stakes winner Name Of Love (by Petardia).

The useful first-season results compiled by Casamento, who looks likely to do better with his three-year-olds than with juveniles, offer encouragement also for the prospects of Toronado, even though the pair represents different sire lines. He looks likely to get some good freshman results in 2018 even though his best results are also likely to come with three-year-olds and older horses.
