Formerly trained by Sir Michael Stoute, Hasik broke his maiden at Windsor by three lengths, and was placed twice from three runs. By Ashkalani, out of the Stakes winning mare Hasainiya, Hasik is closely related to the Italian Derby winner Houmayoun, as well as some useful winners over jumps including Hazarfen.
Explaining that the colt would be trained by Michael Cunningham, Cullinane commented: “I thought he was a nice horse with a nice temperament, and the fact that he is already a winner is a plus.”
