TROPICS, Dean Ivory’s stable star has been raised four pounds by the handicapper to his highest ever mark of 117 after his nail-biting second in the Darley July Cup last Saturday.

The seven-year-old son of Speightstown has improved year on year since he joined Dean Ivory after going through the ring for just 2,500 guineas.  A $280,000 dollar foal, he was resold for $700,000  as a yearling.  He has now won £469,000 in prize money.  What a shrewd purchase!

Tropics’ race record reads very well.  He has won eight out of 31 races ( a strike rate of 31%) which has included three Listed races and a Group Three.
