🔹 About Alfred Spero
Name: Alfred Spero
DOB: 22/04/22 b g
Sire: Golden Horn, Dam: Scala Regia, Dam's Sire: Kyllachy
Trainer: Gemma Tutty
Purchased for: 12,000gns
Purchased at: Tatts July Sale (July 10, 2025)
Sourced by: Kings Bloodstock
Expected first run: Aug 25
🔹 Expertly Sourced by Kings Bloodstock
Alfred Spero was sourced for us by Kings Bloodstock, who has a proven eye for this type of horse. One standout example is Mostly Cloudy, whom he bought for 23,000gns after just one run (6th of 8). He went on to win five in a row, rising from a mark of 60 to 98, and was later sold to Australia for 150,000gns. We hope Alfred can follow the same path.
🔹 Why We Bought Him
Alfred has run just once, at Chelmsford over 1m2f, finishing 9th of 12 – but the race is red-hot:
Winner: Won a handicap next time off a mark of 90
2nd: Now rated 85
4th: Won a novice next time out, now rated 81
7th & 8th: Sold for 20,000gns and 18,000gns respectively at the July Sale
Crucially, most of these runners had already run multiple times – Alfred was making his debut, so improvement is very likely.
🔹 Staying Potential and the Path Ahead
It’s clear from his profile and run that Alfred will need a trip, and we expect him to excel over 1m6f+. The plan is to:
Get a handicap mark
Step him up in distance
Target weight-for-age staying races on soft ground this autumn
Look to build value
His pedigree and physical scope suggest he could be just the type for Australian racing or the National Hunt market, particularly if he climbs into the high 70s or 80s in the ratings.
