In a previous post, Alan discussed the success of Honour Devil, a son of shuttle sire Honour and Glory out of a Fitzcarraldo (ARG) mare, and noted that it was part of a broader cross that involved another son of Relaunch in Slew Gin Fizz.
On Saturday, the Relaunch/Fitzcarraldo cross, already a TrueNicks A+ rating, came up with its first grade I winner in the shape of the Honour and Glory 2-year-old filly Bouclette Glory, winner of the Gran Premoi Saturnino J. Unzue Stakes (Arg-I) at Palermo. Bouclette Glory once again highlights the vast database that TrueNicks has available to make its calculations. As The Jockey Club Information Systems gathers foal records and race results from throughout the world, TrueNicks is able to calculate the nick rating for any named horse from just about any corner of the globe.
