SUNSTRIKE (IRE) (Dark Angel {Ire}), who was a 390,000gns Tattersalls October Yearling Sale Book 2 purchase by Qatar Racing, is an intriguing debutante for the John and Thady Gosden stable in a potentially decent encounter on the Tapeta. A full-sister to the German listed scorer Dark Liberty (Ire) and a half to last year's Listed Prix Coronation scorer Queen of Love (Ire) (Kingman {GB}), the February-foaled bay meets Amo Racing's fellow newcomer Hello You (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), a Ralph Beckett-trained €350,000 Arqana Deauville graduate whose dam is a half to Invincible Spirit's Group 1-winning sprinter Signs of Blessing (Ire).
