The diminutive Beach Bomb is promising and can hopefully  follow in the footsteps of her diminutive five-time Grade 1-winning mother Beach Beauty (Picture: Wayne Marks).    

Beach Beauty’s Lancaster Bomber daughter Beach Bomb lived up to her name in testing going at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on Sunday when powering clear to win by 5,25 lengths in her second career start under Aldo Domeyer.

 
The Candice Bass-Robinson-trained Beach Bomb strongly resembles her diminutive Dynasty mother Beach Beauty and has a strikingly similar action too.
 
The small filly then showed she has inherited Beach Beauty’s chief weapon, her devastating turn of foot.
 
She was sked for her effort at the 200m mark and shot clear of the favourite Epikleros to win easing up. 
 
Domeyer said she feels bigger in  the running due to her action and was confident she would go further.
 
The win was reminiscent of Beach Beauty’s first win at Clairwood on October 17, 2020, where she showed an exhilarating burst of speed late in a 1450m contest to win by three lengths.
 
Beach Beauty has already produced two stakes winners, Wild Coast, a colt by Trippi, and Amamzimtoti, a filly by Trippi, as well as stakes placed stayer Rex Union (Duke Of Marmalade).
 
Narina Trogon, a gelding by Silvano, is threatening to add to that list.
 
However, Beach Bomb, due to the strong resemblance to her mother might be the most exciting prospect of all of her runners to date.
 
The two-year-old filly is a Drakenstein Stud homebred.
 
The next Beach Beauty in line to run is a yearling filly by Gimmethegreenlight, which is exciting considering the pair clashed in the 2012 Met with Gimmethegreenlight finishing a commendable third as a three-year-old and Beach Beauty just 0,80 lengths behind him in fifth place with the race being won by the great Igugu.
