Daughter Of Dank Debuts At Salisbury

Observations on the European Racing Scene turns the spotlight on the best European races of the day, highlighting well-pedigreed horses early in their careers, horses of note returning to action and young runners that achieved notable results in the sales ring. Thursday's Observations features a daughter of Breeders' Cup heroine Dank (GB) (Dansili {GB}).

2.50 Salisbury, Mdn, ÂŁ24,000, 2yo, f, 6f 213yT
DOOM (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) is the fourth foal out of the GI Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf and GI Beverly D. S. heroine Dank (GB) (Dansili {GB}), who is also a half to the top-level scorers Eagle Mountain (GB) (Rock Of Gibraltar {Ire}) and Sulk (Ire) (Selkirk). James Wigan's April-foaled homebred debuts for the William Haggas stable in this valuable Bob McCreery Memorial British EBF Quidhampton Maiden Fillies' S. which has a habit of playing host to future pattern-race winners.

 

3.10 Haydock, Novice, ÂŁ10,000, 2yo, c/g, 7f 212yT
CASTLE WAY (GB) (Almanzor {Fr}) shaped with abundant promise when second in a Newmarket maiden last month and is arguably the one to take out of that race which has hosted Motivator (GB), Frankel (GB), Roaring Lion and Coroebus (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) in the past. Godolphin's Charlie Appleby-trained 425,000gns Book 1 graduate and half-brother to the high-class multiple Group 1-winning Palace Pier (GB) (Kingman {GB}) encounters a William Haggas-trained newcomer in Garden Route (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), a son of the G1 S A Nursery winner Cloth Of Cloud (SAf) (Captain Al {SAf}) from the family of Artie Schiller (El Prado {Ire}) who represents Magnier/Shanahan/Nagle/Kantor.

 

5.37 ParisLongchamp, Debutantes, €27,000, 2yo, f, 8fT
CHASING THE SUN (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) was a €600,000 purchase at the Arqana Deauville August Yearling Sale by virtue of the fact that she is a half-sister to the G3 Prix de Lieurey winner and G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches and G1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp-placed Wind Chimes (GB) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}). Stepping out in the Qatar Racing silks who own 50% in partnership with Ecurie Des Monceaux, the Andre Fabre-trained chestnut encounters a pair of Wertheimer newcomers in the Carlos Laffon-Parias-trained Carvana (GB) (Siyouni {Fr}), a half-sister to the G1 Prix Saint-Alary heroine Queen's Jewel (GB) (Pivotal {GB}), and Kovattack (Fr) (War Front), a Christophe Ferland-trained daughter of the G1 Prix Vermeille winner Galikova (Fr) (Galileo {Ire}).
