Easy Saturday win

Seeyouincourt impresses

21 Aug 21: Seeyouincourt, ridden by Carlos Lopez, gave Annike's team a nice boost leading up to Derby day when winning the Severino Handicap on this fine Saturday card. He raced prominently throughout the 1600-metres trip, forged ahead with 200 metres to go and won very comfortably from Geist, with Machine Gun back in third place. Earlier on, Mestre dos Magos ran a game race for second in Norsk Forening For Fullblodsavls Løp, won by Macjack.

Seeyouincourt - a maiden no more / hesteguiden.com

01 July 21: A perfect day at the races was complete as Seeyouincourt broke her maiden with a visually impressive win over older rivals in the Lisselan Handicap over 1750 metres on the dirt track.  Alan Wallace was in the saddle. 

The daughter of Juniper Tree travelled almost too well just off the pace in this event, and eased into the lead 300 metres from the winning post. She appeared to idle but still won by 3 lengths from Geist, who came from well off the pace.

Seeyouincourt - from family of winners

Seeyouincourt, an unraced three-year-old filly bred by Christer Svanholm AB in Sweden, came to Annike's stable after being bought at the yearling sales at Bro Park in 2019. Seeyouincourt is by Juniper Tree (Galileo) out of the highly successful Fraam daughter Blusher (GB), who won 8 races in England and Sweden. Blusher developed into a serious runner in Scandinavia, blossoming after joining Claes Björling. Blusher began her career in England, where she was trained by Mick Channon and won over 7.5 furlongs at Beverley. That was useful form but Björling improved her no end in Sweden. He made her successful in the Amacitalöpning, Svelanadlöpning and Scania Sprint, and she was also placed 15 times, including when fourth in the Rosengårdlöpning. Her earnings grew to an impressive 750,164 SEK., and Blusher has done well also as a broodmare. She is the dam of the hardy runner Label, a gelded son of Layman who has 7 wins and and 30 placings on his cv.


Blusher's dam, Quickstyx (Night Shift), was a winner at three and she enjoyed an incredible run at stud, producing nine winners. Amongst them is Medievel, who won three times and ran second in the Prix Francois Boutin (LR) at Deauville. Another half-brother worth a mention is the Singspiel son Haymarket, who picked up five wins on the flat and also won over hurdles, while Blusher is also a half-sister to the useful mare Hairspray – a winner of four races and better known as the dam of Epsom Icon, who captured the Princess Elizabeth Stakes (G3) at the Epsom Derby meeting. Epsom Icon was also trained by Mick Channon. Digging a bit deeper in this pedigree, it's impossible not to notice the name Red Fort, a very smart performer who was a half-brother to Blusher's second dam. Red Fort won the prestigious Wolferton Stakes (LR) at Royal Ascot as a three-year-ld and he was later on placed twice in the Charles Whittingham Memorial Handicap (G1) at Hollywood Park in California. He was also twice runner-up in the Inglewood Handicap (G3).


It is safe to say that Seeyouincourt comes from an international family full of winners, so she has a fair bit to live up to. Bred to possess a mix of speed and stamina, she is a fascinating thoroughbred. Her sire, the fashionably bred Juniper Tree, ran just three times while trained by Ireland's champion handler Aidan O'Brien. He thus never got the chance to give a return on his hefty 950,000 guineas yearling price, but his stallion career in Sweden has shown promise. His daughter Ascot Brass was one of the best juveniles in Scandinavia in 2019, earning 1.2 million kroner in her first season. Juniper Tree has also sired Powerpoint, a mare with five wins and over a million kroner in earnings.  GS 290421
