Grey Fily Blue Bunting

Grey Fily Blue Bunting is one of the most talented horses due to run on the final day of Royal Ascot this season. Blue Bunting is one of the best three-year-olds around kicking up a fuss and a storm that only a blind man would be able to ignore.

Mahmood Al Zarooni is in the process of creating a racehorse that could challenge for the biggest titles in flat racing over the next couple of years. He is in the process of curbing the many strengths of this animal which are making it even stronger.

Blue Bunting has only ever raced in four professional flat races but three wins and a second place finish have been produced. This animal has something special and not one of the wins has been a poor race to watch.

First Race of Blue Bunting

The first race of Blue Bunting came at the end of July in 2010 at famous racecourse Newmarket. This race produced a second place finish in a field of 12 runners. Blue Bunting showed tremendous speed and fight over seven furlongs and was unlucky to be beaten by a shorter priced horse which just managed to stay on in the last couple of furlongs.

The first race of Blue Bunting was immediately followed up by a win after Al Zarooni was given a chance to study what went wrong in the first race and correct the mistakes. Blue Bunting won over a mile at Doncaster on August 14 after sitting nicely in the middle of the pack for the whole trip.

Main Strength of Blue Bunting

The main strength of Blue Bunting is that a good start is not the be all and end all of a race for this horse. Blue Bunting is a runner that likes to sit in the middle or towards the back of a field before slowly moving up and attacking the leaders.

Stamina is another main strength of Blue Bunting. This horse does not look tired at the end of a race and the indications are that longer flat races could follow in the near distance. Al Zarooni has settled the horse over eight furlongs but ten furlongs doesn't look out of this horse's reach.

Blue Bunting 2011 Form

Blue Bunting 2011 form is very good. The horse has raced once this year which has produced a first place finish over eight furlongs at Newmarket. Once again the holding up style was executed perfectly although Frankie Dettori was put under heavy pressure inside the final furlong.
