The Dasmal team has had a good start to the year, headed by Visionary who looks like he should progress as a three year old into a smart performer. His win this year has seen his rating rise to 94.

Another winner was homebred Fiery Spice who, returned at the sale for box walking, broke his maiden at the third attempt over the minimum having shown greenness his first two outings.

A third winner was Abatement on Saturday 28th at Lingfield. Such a stunning yearling Mark was underbidder at Tattersalls and having failed to acquire him recommended Mr Dasmal take a share in him with Highclere.

There were also promising runs from Majeed, King Cole and Speed Hawk in Dubai. We are still looking forward to Vin Chaud making his reappearance.
