At least 144 good reasons why Havana Gold will get back on the up this year

Success breeds success, so the old saying goes. If that rings true for Tweenhills' Havana Gold then 2021 promises to be a fruitful year as his biggest and best-bred crop of juveniles reaches the racecourse.

The son of Teofilo has, of course, already enjoyed his share of triumph, with his early runners propelling him to the leading British-based first-season sire title in 2017. He finished second only to the ill-fated Society Rock by volume of winners among that year's Anglo-Irish freshmen.

His first juveniles included 18 successful sons and daughters in Britain and Ireland, among which were names like Havana Grey, winner of the Molecomb Stakes, Coventry runner-up Headway, Curragh Stakes scorer Treasuring as well as smart performers like Raid and Tabdeed.
