賓康旗下新星Nownownow轉戰歐洲
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf winner Nownownow will continue his racing career in Europe, and the three-year-old Whywhywhy colt will be trained in Ireland by David Wachman.
Nownownow likely will be shipped in March to Wachman’s base in County Tipperary, Racing Post reported.
Bookmaker William Hill has listed Nownownow as 33-to-1 for the Two Thousand Guineas (Eng-G1) and 40-to-1 for the Epsom Derby (Eng-G1).
A homebred of Fabien Ouaki’s Fab Oak Stable, Nownownow made his first five starts for trainer Patrick Biancone. He won the inaugural Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf by a half-length on yielding turf on October 26 at Monmouth Park for trainer Francois Parisel.
Parisel took over Biancone’s Breeders’ Cup contingent after the embattled French trainer agreed to a six-month suspension and an additional six months away from training for possession of Alpha-Cobratoxin, snake venom that can be used as a painkiller.
Biancone's suspension began November 1.
Nownownow entered the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf off a runner-up finish in the Woodford Reserve Bourbon Stakes on October 7 at Keeneland Race Course. He closed his two-year-old campaign with two wins and three runner-up finishes in six starts and earnings of $641,950.
Kentucky-bred Nownownow is out of the winning Exit to Nowhere mare Here and Now (Fr).
