Promising three-year-old Patch Of Cosmo has continued his winning run of form in Hong Kong.
The son of Super Seth had returned from a break last month at Sha Tin to open his account over 1200 metres at his third appearance.
On Sunday evening, the Manfred Man-trained representative produced a repeat performance over the course and distance and again in the hands of Luke Ferraris.
Patch Of Cosmo was bred by Waikato Stud and purchased by Richard Racing for $70,000 at last year’s New Zealand Bloodstock National Yearling Sale and then realised $260,000 when offered by Riversley Park at the Ready to Run Sale, where he was purchased by prominent Hong Kong owner Kin Man Yeung, who races the ‘Patch’ horses.
Patch Of Cosmo is the first foal of the Savabeel mare Thee whose dam, the dual stakes winner Thy is a three-quarter sister to the two-time Group 1 winner The Jewel and a half-sister to the Gr.1 1000 Guineas (1600m) winner La Diosa.
John Foote secured Thee’s Super Seth colt sold for $170,000 at Karaka earlier this year and the mare has an Ardrossan yearling colt and is due to foal again to the son of Redoute’s Choice.
