Exciting young Coolmore sire Rubick produced his first stakes horse at Randwick on Saturday when his son Krameric ran home strongly for third in the Group 3 ATC Breeders Plate, the first juvenile stakes race of the season in Australia for colts and geldings.
Allowed to find his feet back in the field by Hugh Bowman, Krameric hit the line hard to grab third place in the big field of 14 finishing a length and a half behind the winner and second placegetter Dubious (Not A Single Doubt) and Covert Ops (I Am Invincible).
They covered the 1000 metres in a new race record time of 56.45 seconds which highlighted the merit of Krameric's debut effort.
A $200,000 Magic Millions purchase Krameric is the third foal of Queen for Ninedays, a winning O'Reilly daughter of Group 3 winner De Montfort.
