Straight Thru Blue rising star

THE WEST AUSTRALIAN owners of Straight Thru Blue are so impressed with their four-win Panspacificflight gelding that they’ve been in touch with Macca Lodge to source another horse by the same sire.

The five-year-old is the latest individual winner from Panspacificflight’s stellar first New Zealand crop that has had so much success on both sides of the Tasman. Straight Thru Blue, who was sold by the McIntyres as a late three-year-old, posted his third win in WA at Northam 02 September and won again at Pinjarra on 05 September, rating 1:56.4 for the 2170 metres. He’s won four of his eight starts this campaign.

The delighted owners have now purchased a two-year-old Panspacificflight gelding from Macca Lodge. Called Diamond Creek, he’s the first foal from the one-win Christian Cullen mare Zest Philly.
