First Win for Earthquake Sibling

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday July 23
Godolphin have had a phenomenally successful season with their two year-olds and added another juvenile winner to the tally on Tuesday with a debut win at Wyong for the half-brother to Group I MRC Blue Diamond Stakes winner Earthquake.

SepoyTrained by James Cummings, Sepoy gelding Pandemic has been given time to mature and was a well backed favourite for the 1000 metre juvenile maiden. He surged to the line from off the pace to win by a length and a half in a brisk 57.42 seconds.

A half-brother to Group I winner Earthquake and stakes-winner Palomares, he is the seventh winner from seven to race from stakes-placed Marauding mare Cataclysm.

Cataclysm has a weanling colt by Kermadec and was covered last year by Epaulette.

Pandemic is another smart winner for Golden Slipper winner Sepoy, who is now based at Darley Victoria at a fee of $11,000.
