Sir Nate upset the hot-pot Beastmode in the first juvenile contest of the
season at Wanganui on Wednesday.
The son of Nadeem had been beaten by a wide margin when they first met at the
Waverley trials last month, but he turned the tables on the Australian bred son of Spirit of Boom when it mattered in the
Vespa standing at Wellfield Lodge 2YO Plate (790m).
"I bought him at Karaka and syndicated him out," trainer Lisa Latta said. "Some
new owners are involved so it's a great result. He's a big, strong colt and
there's a heap of improvement in him."
A $65,000 purchase earlier this year out of Little Avondale Stud's Select Sale
draft, Sir Nate will now head to the paddock.
"We will probably give him a month off and we'd like to think we can get to the
Karaka Million, although that's a long way off yet," Latta said. - NZ Racing Desk
