• Australian stakes winning juvenile by Encosta de Lago
• Out of the dual stakes winner Tonicity

A handsome son of leading Australian sire Encosta de Lago, Cecconi was a A$460,000 yearling at Sydney Easter and proved to have excellent ability during what can only be described as an interrupted career, due to an outbreak of Equine Influenza in Australia which saw racing suspended in many states of Australia.

Trained throughout his career by leading conditioner David Hayes, Cecconi raced solely in black type events as a 2YO and recorded a win in the Listed Blue Diamond Preview and first four finishes in the STC Pago Pago Stakes Gr.2, VRC Sires Produce Stakes Gr.2, and the Merson Cooper Stakes LR; while in a handful of starts as a 3YO he was Group 2 placed in the MVRC Bill Stutt Stakes over 1600m.
