We can be expecting to hear plenty more about Frontiersman in the coming winter seasons but in the meantime our regally-bred son of Dubawi has a 100% strike-rate with his runners on the Flat to date.
He has been represented by just two starters so far, the three-year-old Miss Dolly Rocker and two-year-old Asian Daze, and the latter now has two victories to her name in five runs this season for Johnny Murtagh. Her back-to-back wins have both come over seven furlongs, the first at Gowran Park on 16 August, backed up ten days later by Asian Daze’s win in the Plusvital Supplements Nursery at the Curragh on Saturday off a mark of 80.
Asian Daze was bred by Phelim Dolan from the Danehill Dancer mare Heartasia, and she joins the hugely consistent Miss Dolly Rocker on her sire’s roll of honour. Raced by her breeder Jennifer Dorey, Miss Dolly Rocker won at Chepstow on 10 August after being runner-up of her starts and third in the other. She is entered to reappear in the Racing League fixture at Newcastle on Thursday.
Frontiersman is a son of the great seven-time Group 1 winner and Classic heroine Ouija Board, making him a half-brother to the Derby winner and successful Coolmore sire Australia.
