UPDATE: 26 July 2012
Partners have lost Patience and say 'sell everything'. We will therefore offer Signor Favilla at the Magic Millions ADL Mixed Sale on 05-Aug-2012.

UPDATE: 25 July 2012
Signor Favilla raced greenly at his much anticipated debut today and was erratic in the straight (after being hit with the stick) to throw away any chance of figuring in the finish.

After 2 months in the paddock he came back into work today to prepare for a racetrack debut.

Decision made to be patient and today returned to the paddock for a spell to continue maturing and soak-up all he's learned in the last 3 months.
