The breeding offers some clues, though. The sire, Kameko, was a high-class racehorse who won the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket and has made a promising start to his career as a stallion. The dam comes from the New Approach line, a stallion renowned for producing horses with genuine talent and durability. On paper, there is every reason to think 00look Of Love has inherited some useful raw material.
The other encouraging factor is the yard sending this horse out. George Scott trains in Newmarket, the heartbeat of British flat racing, and his operation has been in excellent form — 52 winners already this season is a serious number that tells you this is not a small, quietly ticking stable. It is a yard that knows how to have horses ready to run on the day that matters. When a trainer in that kind of form decides a two-year-old is ready to make their debut, it is worth paying attention.
