Rage of Bamby (IRE)
2020 bay filly by Saxon Warrior (Jpn) ex Rabiosa Fiore (GB) (Sakhee’s Secret (GB))
Rage Of Bamby is by the 2 year old Group 1 winner and 2000 Guineas winner Saxon Warrior, and she is one of several Group performers from his first crop that also includes a Group 1 winner in Victoria Road. The dam Rabiosa Fiore was Listed placed in Italy and has already produced a multiple Listed winner there, Amalaura.
‘Bamby’ won impressively on debut at Newbury in June before following up under a penalty at Leicester in early September. From there, she was supplemented for the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket where she confirmed Eve’s huge faith in her by finishing an excellent third. She was probably over the top when disappointing on her sole other start in the Oh So Sharp Stakes back at Newmarket in October. After a set back followed by weather-related missed engagements, she bounced back to form at York in August to be second and is an extremely exciting prospect for the rest of the season. She is leased from Kildaragh Stud in Ireland.

Trainer
Eve Johnson Houghton enjoyed another excellent season in 2022 with the unbeaten Streets of Gold and our own Rage Of Bamby proving once more how talented she is with two year olds, as well as Jumby winning at Group 2 level. Eve has tasted Group 1 success in the past with Accidental Agent and has showed great versatility in training everything from sharp 2 year old winners to ageing stayers from her yard on the Berkshire Downs.
