New winner for Poet’s Voice
First-season sire Poet's Voice added a further winner to his tally, and looks to have a promising colt in the making following Montsarrat’s successful debut at Salisbury.
Always prominent under Silvestre de Sousa, Montsarrat superbly covered the move made by early leader California Lad with two furlongs left to run. Mark Johnston’s charge then took up the running a furlong from home and kept to his task in the fashion of a far more experienced horse and won by three-quarters of a length.
Montsarrat was bred by Agricola Del Parco and is out of the Entrepreneur mare Flying Flag, making him a half-brother to multiple Stakes winner Laguna Salada plus a further four winners.
Poet’s Voice was himself a Group winner at two, going on to land the G1 QEII Stakes in thrilling style. He was quick off the mark at stud when his very first runner, Black Magic, became his first winner. He is also sire of Ode To Evening, who was a creditable fifth in last week’s G2 Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot, plus fellow winner Voice Of Love.
