The progeny of unraced broodmare Danetime Out have been so successful for the Richard Hannon team that it seemed natural for Steve Parkin's Clipper Logistics operation to send State Secretary to the same Wiltshire stable.

Hannon and Ross Doyle sourced Toormore for just £36,000 eight years ago and he went on to be champion two-year-old in Europe by winning the National Stakes. After an unsucessful stud career, he returned to the racecourse for another Group win for Godolphin.

Toormore's half-brother Estidhkaar was also good enough to become a stallion, landing both the Superlative and Champagne Stakes as a juvenile.

There has been a bit of a gap since then but Danetime Out's latest foal to grace the track is by Muhaarar, bought by Joe Foley for 95,000gns at Tattersalls Book 1 last year and offered by Redpender Stud on behalf of breeder BEC Bloodstock.

The colt starts off in a competitive little heat for division one of the Unibet Extra Place Offers Every Day EBF Novice Stakes at Kempton on Wednesday.

An hour later on the Polytrack, an even more fascinatingly-bred three-year-old makes her racecourse debut in the Unibet Extra Place Offers Every Day Fillies' Novice Stakes.

Hughie Morrison has taken charge of Star Spirit, a Deep Impact-sired daughter of 2015 French Oaks and Musidora Stakes winner Star Of Seville.

Star Spirit is her first foal and has unsurprisingly been retained by her breeder Lady Bamford.
