Two heats at the Rosehill trials on Monday morning over 900m and the quickest of those was won by an expensive son of Golden Slipper winning first season sire Farnan.
Trained by Gerald Ryan and Sterling Alexiou, King of Pop was sent around in a heat that featured a couple of runners from the Waterhouse Bott stable and one of those was Anders filly Mrs Flanders, who was having her second trial and began like she was shot out of a gun. She quickly took charge in front and King of Pop settled behind her before surging home to beat the filly by half a length with six lengths back to the next horse.
He is from stakes-placed All Too Hard mare Za Zi Ba, a half-sister to Group I winner Rediener and stakes-winner Rathlin from the family of champion sire Snitzel and $11million earning Group I winner Private Eye.
