Karaka 3YO Million Goal for Scream Park

Tara Madgwick - Saturday December 23

Cox Plate winner Ocean Park has been enjoying a flurry of success in recent week, his winners including the promising three year-old Scream Park from the Chris Waller stable.

Lightly raced Scream Park (image Steve Hart) broke his maiden at Warwick Farm on December 6 and returned to the same venue on Saturday to score another easy victory.

In a small field of three, he appeared much the best on paper and duly cruised home to win the 1600 metre Benchmark 77 event by two and three-quarter lengths.

A $185,000 NZB Premier purchase for his trainer from the Lime Country Thoroughbreds draft, Scream Park is eligible for the $1million Karaka Million 3YO Classic next year.

"There's another race here for him in a couple of weeks and then we'll look at the Karaka 3YO Million at the end of January, which looks a very nice race for him," said Chris Waller.

Scream Park is the third winner from three to race from Cassata, a half-sister by Viking Ruler to Group winners Viennetta (dam of Group II winner and sire Golden Archer) and Butterscotch as well as the dam of the Chris Waller trained Group II winner Mackintosh.

Koru Thoroughbreds will offer the yearling half-brother by Dundeel to Scream Park at the 2018 NZB Premier Yearling sale as Lot 92.
