Peter Snowden believes two-year-old Caesar will measure up in better races, but it’s likely the trainer will resist the temptation to raise the bar too quickly with the talented Capitalist colt.

The juvenile, wearing the same green James Harron Bloodstock colours sported by his Golden Slipper-winning sire, defeated older horses in an 1100m Gosford maiden on Thursday under jockey Jason Collett.

“He’s got so much to learn. You can see how raw he was then. He didn’t work it out until he had 50m to go, but he’s got massive ability,” Snowden told Sky Racing. 

“If I took him to Sydney for his first time, he’d probably come undone in town. 

“Once he concentrated, he picked up five lengths. He’s got talent, but he’s just got to put it all together. No doubt he’ll keep improving, but probably (in his) next preparation. He’s a nice horse and I like him a lot.”

The latest of 15 two-year-old winners for the Newgate Farm-based Capitalist this season, the Bob Hannon-bred Caesar is an $800,000 James Harron colts partnership-purchased half-brother to three-time stakes-winning two-year-old Shaquero.
