Able One

Able One is a New Zealand–bred Hong Kong–based Thoroughbred racehorse.
He raced from 2006 to 2012. In the 2009–2010 season, Able One won the HKG2 Chairman's Trophy before following up in the Champions Mile. Able One was one of the nominees of Hong Kong Horse of the Year that year.

Background

Able One is a plain bay gelding bred by Sir Patrick Hogan and Lady Justine Hogan. He was sold at Karaka as a yearling before being resold by Phoenix Park at the Karaka Ready to Run sale at two, purchased by Paul Beamish for NZ$270,000.
He was sired by Cape Cross, an Irish stallion whose wins included the Lockinge Stakes, the Queen Anne Stakes, and the Celebration Mile. Other progeny of Cape Cross include Sea The Stars, Golden Horn, and Ouija Board.
His dam, Gardenia, was an unraced New Zealand based mare by Danehill (horse).

Pedigree

Able One is inbred 3 × 3 to Danzig, meaning that this stallion appears twice in the third generation of his pedigree. He is also inbred 4 x 4 to Sir Ivor.
