Bred by Rajasinghe out of a mare by Sir Percy, 00kune Kune carries a fairly typical profile for a juvenile making an early appearance. Rajasinghe was a quick, sharp two-year-old himself during his racing days, which hints that his offspring may not need much time to find their feet, though breeding can only tell you so much until a horse actually gets out on the track and shows you what it can do.
The trainer is Adrian Nicholls, who operates out of Sessay in North Yorkshire. His yard has sent out 12 winners already this season, which tells you this is a yard in decent form and not simply making up the numbers. Nicholls has a reputation for knowing how to place his horses well, and a yard firing on all cylinders is exactly the kind of environment a young horse needs when it walks into a racetrack for the very first time. Whether 00kune Kune is ready to win on debut or simply here to learn the ropes, it is in capable hands.
