Regal Tycoon Dominates at Kyneton – A Well-Deserved Victory for Our Consistent Mare!
Regal Tycoon Breaks Through in Style
At Kyneton today, Regal Tycoon stormed home to score by 2.25 lengths in Race 4, confirming what we’ve always known: she’s a genuine class mare on the rise.
From the moment the gates opened, everything went perfectly to plan.
Jamie Mott jumped cleanly from barrier five and immediately positioned Regal Tycoon in the coveted “one-one” spot, just outside the leader Tapo.
Despite pre-race talk suggesting a hot early tempo, it never eventuated.
Tapo led comfortably, with Regal Tycoon travelling beautifully throughout.
Jamie allowed her to relax through the middle stages before asking for her effort on turning for home — and she delivered with a devastating kick.
She cruised past Tapo at the 200m and powered clear for a convincing win.
“She kicked really well — a little surprised with how good she did kick, actually.”
— Jamie Mott (jockey)
Regal Tycoon Breaks Through in Style
1. Perfect Tactical Ride
Jamie’s ride was superb. He anticipated the pattern early, took the initiative to find the ideal position, and controlled the race tempo from there. Regal Tycoon relaxed beautifully and responded powerfully when asked.
2. Race Shape Suited
The race ran almost a second slower than the earlier benchmark event — perfect for our mare. It allowed her to conserve energy and unleash her turn of foot late.
3. Second-Up Fitness Edge
She took good improvement from her first-up run at Bendigo, where she was narrowly beaten. That outing brought her to peak condition, and today she showed the benefit of that fitness.
Post-Race Reflections
Jamie Mott was glowing in his post-race comments:
“She went terrific first up, just missed, and she’d improved into today.
Today looked like a really nice race for her… when I was able to come back off the leader she switched off great and cruised through those middle stages.
Once we did that, I was confident she’d give me a kick — and she kicked really well.”
He added:
“She’s so consistent, she’s never run a bad race… and like her brother, I think she’ll keep improving each preparation.”
Trainer’s Notes
Today’s performance confirmed that she’s taken the next step and is capable of progressing through the grades with confidence.
What’s Next
Regal Tycoon has pulled up in terrific order and will likely head toward another benchmark race in the coming weeks, with placement to ensure she continues building on this excellent early spring form.
Summary
Regal Tycoon’s consistency, composure, and class were on full display, and her connections can look forward to an exciting campaign ahead.
A big congratulations once again to all owners — your patience and faith have been richly rewarded.
