Blazon Tales
BOBS 3yo Provincial Placed Sprinter
(GST status not known)
(GST status not known)
This three year old gelding is only lightly raced, having had seven starts for two provincial placings.
As a two year old, he excited his ownership group by winning a Warwick Farm trial and running second in a Randwick trial, and was regarded by his Warwick Farm trainer as a possible Magic Millions horse. [See video of jockey's comments after one of his early trials.]
He missed that opportunity due to shin soreness and at his next time in work, developed some waywardness on the track in his first two starts, which led a change of trainer and some 'back to basics'.
After winning another Warwick Farm trial this January (beating Mr. Bogart who has won three races and is dual Listed placed) and running second again in a Randwick trial (to Acclaimed Light - since a winner), Blazon Tales ran third at Kembla Grange over 1000 metres. After a couple of unplaced runs (where he missed the start) he ran third at Scone over 900m on 24th March. Slowly away and having a checquered passage, he finished off well into third in a strong headwind, with the winner breaking the class record.
At his most recent start at Canberra 2nd April over 1000 metres, Blazon Tales missed the start badly and finished 7th of 9 runners.

His current trainer reports that Blazon Tales possesses very good speed on the training track, which is additionally frustrating for his ownership. Owned by a large syndicate, the decision has been made to move him on.
He is a very powerfully built horse, 15.2hh with good legs. See video of Blazon Tales parading just before resuming work earlier this year.
His previous waywardness under saddle is no longer a problem, however his reaction time out of the barriers needs improvement. He will suit a country trainer who will no doubt be able to pick up a few races with him.
