As a two year old Barnato (3g Redoute’s Choice – Glimmers by Success Express), a graduate from Lauriston Thoroughbred Farm’s draft at the 2013 Inglis Premier yearling sale, won the S$195,000 Aus-bred bonus in Singapore. Returning as a three year old Barnato notched up two seconds from two starts before he was given a short break by trainer Patrick Shaw. He commenced his next preparation in the third at Singapore last Friday over 1,200 metres. Jockey Nooresh Juglall took him to the front from the outset and Barnato led all of the way to win by two lengths.

Alcobro (3g Bianconi – Tendue by General Nediym) was another Lauriston bred 3yo who appears to have ability. The Richard Jolly trained gelding had won both his career starts before tackling a small field at Morphettville yesterday. Alcobro was sent out as the odds-on favourite. Regular rider Jake Toeroek took him to the front and he led throughout managing to hold out late finisher Bokara Road to win by less than half a length.

Alcobro is a full brother to the well performed 6yo Alcohol and a half-brother to Couperin (5yo Ne Coupez Pas). Last Monday Couperin won at Coonabarabran for new trainer Sue Grills.

Polinelli (4g Hard Spun – Inthemix by Easy Rocking) had won in his previous start a fortnight ago at Avoca. But he was sent out at long odds in the first leg of the quaddie over 1,450 metres at Kilmore today. Damien Thornton was on for his father and trainer Glenn Thornton. He was happy to let the 4yo settle at the back of the field. After the turn Damien looked for a path inside horses and Polinelli responded gaining on the front runners. Polinelli put in an impressive late burst to win by just 0.2 lengths. Race Replay: Polinelli Race 4 Kilmore 02 Nov 14

Lauriston Thoroughbred Farm would like to congratulate the connections of Barnato, Alcobro, Couperin and Polinelli on their last start victories.
