Sea looks a Star in the making

Sun 17th Aug 2008, 14:39

Sea The Stars looked a name to remember when running out a stylish winner of the opening maiden at Leopardstown.

The half-brother to Galileo recorded a cosy two-and-a-half length success under Mick Kinane after hitting the front at the two furlong pole.

The John Oxx-trained son of Cape Cross was given a quote of 28/1 by Boylesports for next year's Derby after the victory and is set to tackle Group company on his next start.

"He's a nice horse. The ground was very soft and not many liked it and he didn't really either," said Oxx.

"He's a lovely big horse but he's not the finished article yet. He's not a precocious type and has a lot of developing to do.

"He's in the National Stakes and will be in the Beresford. He's promising but there is a long way to go."
