Rapido made a big impression in his final start last preparation, bolting clear at Newcastle to score by over four lengths. Returning this preparation as a gelding, he picked up where he left off at Canterbury today, again putting daylight between himself and his rivals under a great ride from Rachel King.
Rapido was a purchase for the James Harron Bloodstock Colt Partnership at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale, from the Twin Hills Stud draft.
