Found this on the RP site, Fist:

"....Starspangledbanner, a champion sprinter in both hemispheres, retired to Coolmore Stud in 2011 following Group 1 wins from 6f to a mile, but after proving subfertile, returned to training in 2012.

Although the son of Choisir failed to recapture his form for Aidan O'Brien, he has since returned to stallion duties at his birthplace, Rosemont Stud in Australia, and was reported to have a promising number of mares in foal at the end of last season."

Article dated May 11th. 2014
 
"The first at Catterick yesterday was probably a weak event but Olivia Fallow showed some ability; she went violently right from the stalls but then was taken over to the rail and under considerate handling kept on nicely for fourth. Her SP of 16/1 suggests that she wasn't expected to do great things on her debut but she showed enough to suggest she might win a small race."

Posted on May 7th.

This one just won nicely at Ripon on her first outing since, quite pleased with this result. Not a great race but the filly looked to have progressed nicely.

I see that Donald McCain is getting involved in 2-y-o racing. Three runners so far, all for Mr. & Mrs. Rooney, all going off at big prices but two of them placed.

MY DREAM BOAT, his runner at Hamilton yesterday, ran an encouraging race, restless in the stalls and giving ground away at the start was always labouring to make up the ground but kept on well to claim second.

As ever thanks for doing this Colin.

Interesting family Fast Company comes from. If I'd be worried, it is that they can be hugely promising 2yos that then don't deliver. Canadian Mill looked very good as a 2yo and so did Khozaam. Maybe Fast Company will change things.
