Three Of The First Mehmas Crop To Lookout For

Mehmas, who will need little introduction to many of you, starts out his first campaign as a sire this summer and we have put together three of his crop that could pay their way throughout the season.

This high-class 2yo won the July & Richmond Stakes, was runner-up in the Coventry & National Stakes and then retired without finishing outside of the top 3 in eight career starts.

He was a speedy individual who was very forward early in his career so it would be no surprise to see his offspring landing the initial season sprints.

Richard Hughes has had some decent sprinters already and Aussie Stormer is bred to be a very sharp 2yo.

His dam is Stormy Clouds who landed a £147,540 prize in the Goffs Premier Yearling Stakes as well as finishing second in the Weatherbys Super Sprint.

Just like Mehmas, she only campaigned as a 2yo so you would imagine connections have similar plans for their progeny.

Clive Cox is renowned for his superstar sprinters and Bright Armor has an eye-catching sprint pedigree.

He is by Mehmas, out of Shamardal filly Jamaayel, who has recently produced the 1000 Guineas entry Raeeq.

Everything points to an exciting 2-y-o and he is entered in the Super Sprint Stakes.

Having trained Mehmas to a successful career it would be a surprise if Richard Hannon didn’t have a couple of nice prospects and this colt looks interesting.

Unlike many of his first crop, this son of Mehmas has a mix of speed and stamina with his Dam, a daughter of New Approach, providing plenty of the latter.

He holds some 5f-7f entries so it will be intriguing to see where they start out.
