Purchased from the Tattersalls Ireland Yearling Sale, he is by EXCELEBRATION and is the half-brother to Listed winner and Gr.2-placed TIME SHANAKILL

By the sire of three time Group 1 winner BARNEY ROY, out of a mare who has already produced the Listed and 10-time winner TIME SHANAKILL (Lord Shanakill) and Listed 2nd Va Tutto Bene (Hallowed Crown) hopefully he can have a career reminiscent of our Mark Johnston trained, Group 1 placed, Group 3 and Listed winner Marie’s Diamond.

See his walk video in the gallery.

“This is a lovely sort and probably goes to Mark Johnston. We were probably running on fumes bidding-wise," smiled Tim Palin, director of Middleham Park. pic.twitter.com/H0zkRxtxgH

Racing Update (30th March): A hugely talented 2yo and one of the best early sprinters in 2022. Having been off for 625 days with an injury, he completely routed the field on his first run back today! He is very talented and there’s a big engine in there. He could have a superb turf season and will run at Doncaster on Saturday, in The Spring Mile. TIMEFORM RATED: 100.

One for the Lincoln?

The Gatekeeper, last seen at Royal Ascot in 2021, makes an impressive winning return at @NewcastleRaces for @Johnston_Racing, @Atzenijockey and @MprUpdates...pic.twitter.com/2n2wzqmxdE
