Prepared by Danny O'Brien, Bullpit won at Moonee Valley two starts ago before finishing fourth to highly regarded Pressing at Caulfield.
Sent across to Adelaide for his first crack at Black Type, Bullpit led all the way and despite racing greenly to the line held on too well to win the 1050 metre scamper by more than a length.
Not offered at auction, Bullpit has won two of four starts earning over $100,000 in prizemoney for lucky owner Steven Pitts.
Bred by Paddy Hare, he is the first foal of
Madamesta, a half-sister by Estambul (Arg) to stakes-winner Riceman.
Madamesta has been to Speed 'n' Power twice since producing Bullpit so has a yearling filly and weanling colt to follow that are full siblings to the stakes-winner.
Bullpit is the best of five winners from nine foals to race for Speed 'n' Power, whose oldest progeny are four year-olds.
Standing at Tulla Stud in New South Wales for Paddy Hare, Speed 'n' Power has only covered small books of mares so to get a stakes-winner is quite an achievement.
A blue-blooded son of champion sire Zabeel, Speed 'n' Power made $1.6 million as a yearling, but never raced due to an infected pedal bone.
Closely related to champion racehorse Might and Power, Speed 'n' Power is from stakes-winner Miss Power Bird, a half-sister to Champion HK Miler and sire Lucky Owners and to the dam of four-time Group I winner Mosheen.
