Rathasker grad Newsman takes the EBF 1m Maiden for 2yos at Gowran

21 Sep 2015

Newsman showed good progress from his first run to finish second in a Roscommon maiden last time and he took another step forward to defeat Mittershill. He is the first produce of the winning Undulant Way whose three winning siblings include the Listed Chester Rated Stakes and Listed Esher Stakes second Midas Way. Trained by Johnny Murtagh for Qatar Racing, Newsman was bred by Matt Brazill of South House Stud in partnership with Rathasker and was sold under the Rathasker banner at Goffs foal sales. Undulant Way has a yearling colt by Born To Sea (Lot 1409 in Book 2 of Tattersalls’ October Yearling Sale) and foaled a full-brother to the yearling in April – which will be sold under the Rathasker consignment at Goffs November Foal Sales 2015.
