ZAGATO (GB) (Frankel {GB}) makes a low-key introduction after the Champions Day action has played out further South, but is a notable John Gosden newcomer as a son of the stable’s G1 Pretty Polly S. heroine Izzi Top (GB) (Pivotal {GB}) who was also awarded the G1 Prix Jean Romanet. Like Telecaster (GB) (New Approach {Ire}), the Meon Valley-bred April-foaled bay who is a half to two black-type performers and the fellow Gosden-trained Wokingham H. runner-up Dreamfield (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) sports the colours of Castle Down Racing having been unsold at 725,000gns at the Tattersalls October Book 1 Sale. He meets Godolphin’s similarly-unraced Folk Magic (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), the 1.1-million gns Book 1 graduate from the family of the multiple Group 1 heroine Soviet Song (Ire) (Marju {Ire}) who represents Charlie Appleby.
