11/04/12 Zuider Zee second in the Further Flight Stakes
good debut augurs well for the 2012 season
ZUIDER ZEE (Sakhee-
ZEPHYRINE) performed very well at his debut, when finishing second at Nottingham in the Further Flight Stakes,
L., the first test for the good stayers in England. Having finished third in a Stakes in France at his final start 2011, this was a quite encouraging result for the 2012 season.
ZUIDER ZEE is bred by Graf und Grafin Stauffenberg, was sold through
STAUFFENBERG BLOODSTOCK as a foal at the Tattersalls December Foal Sales and is trained by John Gosden for HRH Princess Haya of Jordan. He won 4 races so far, his biggest so far being the Doncaster November Handicap last year.
ZEPHYRINE has a smashing yearling colt by
HIGH CHAPARRAL, named
ZILBER, who will be sold at one of the major yearling sales and was covered by
MONSUN this year.
