One to Watch – Benalla

There aren’t many grey horses by So You Think, but we saw one win on debut at Benalla on Tuesday and the horse he beat is a half-brother to boom filly Learning to Fly.

One to Watch – Seymour

Anthony and Sam Freedman produced an interesting first starter at Seymour on Thursday for So You Think and he duly saluted as a short priced favourite.

Think About It The Latest Inglis G1 Success Story

Up-and-coming star Think About It (So You Think) surged into favouritism for the $3m Stradbroke Handicap with a dominant victory in today’s G1 Kingsford Smith Cup at Eagle Farm.

$460,000 So You Think Colt Headed to The West

As we head into the afternoon on Monday, So You Think is setting the pace at the Inglis Premier Yearling Sale with a quality colt from Danalicious secured by Belmont Bloodstock for $460,000 on behalf of West Australian owner breeder Bob Peters.

So You Think Colt Wins G3 Carbine Club

So You Think was expected to get the winner of the Group III VRC Carbine Club Stakes (1600m) at Flemington on Saturday with race favourite Pungo all the rage, but at the 100m mark it was another So You Think colt that arrived on the scene with Perfect Thought powering to victory in the colours carried by his sire.

One to Watch – Gosford

So You Think does not get a lot of two year-old winners, so when one of his babies wins on debut by three it’s always going to catch the eye especially when it’s bred on a ‘nick that clicks’!
