Awtaad’s Al Qareem All Heart In Paris

ParisLongchamp's mammoth Arc weekend opened with the G2 Qatar Prix Chaudenay, which went the way of Karl Burke trainee Al Qareem (Ire) (Awtaad {Ire}–Moqla {GB}, by Teofilo {Ire}) after a thrilling finale to the 15-furlong contest. The 3-year-old gelding, who had snagged handicaps at Nottingham and York earlier this term, was last seen finishing seventh in Goodwood's G3 Gordon S. and went postward as an 11-2 chance. Tracking the leader in second until taking over at the entrance to the straight, he was scrubbed along when tackled approaching the quarter-mile pole and stayed on in resolute fashion under a continued drive to deny Sober (Fr) (Camelot {GB}) by a nostril after a ding-dong tussle.

“He's been mega unlucky a few times this year and I'm so delighted to win a big one with him,” commented owner Nick Bradley. “It was my fault [when he was fourth in the G2 Queen's Vase] at [Royal] Ascot as I told Clifford [Lee] to make the running on him, but he just did too much and was too free. He was a bit unlucky at Newmarket [when second in the G3 Bahrain Trophy] and Goodwood didn't go to plan, but the form of that race is amazingly strong. I'll have a good look at the programme book, but he could go to Saudi Arabia and there's also the Gold Cup on Dubai World Cup night at Meydan.”

Al Qareem, half-brother to a yearling colt by Muhaarar (GB), is the second of three foals produced by an unraced half-sister to G3 Earl of Sefton S. victor Mahsoob (GB) (Dansili {Ire}) and becomes the third pattern-race winner for his sire (by Cape Cross {Ire}). His second dam is the multiple stakes-placed Mooakada (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}), herself a granddaughter of G3 Prestige S. victrix and G1 1000 Guineas third Bint Shadayid (Nashwan). The latter is one of two stakes winners bred from G1 1000 Guineas and G1 Prix Marcel Boussac heroine Shadayid (Shadeed), whose descendants also include GIII Thunder Road S. winner and GI Shoemaker Mile runner-up Farhaan (Jazil).

Freshman Sire Awtaad Off the Mark at Kempton

Derrinstown Stud-based freshman sire Awtaad (Ire) (Cape Cross {Ire}) got off the mark when Sheikh Rashid Dalmook Al Maktoum’s Live Stream (Ire) annexed Friday’s British Stallion Studs EBF Fillies’ Novice S. over six furlongs at Kempton.

2nd-Kempton, £6,400, Nov, 6-12, 2yo, f, 6f (AWT), 1:12.70, st/sl.
LIVE STREAM (IRE) (f, 2, Awtaad {Ire}–Fluvial {Ire}, by Exceed and Excel {Aus}) was positioned in a close-up third along the fence after a sharp getaway in this debut. Shaken up approaching the quarter-mile marker, the the 7-2 chance quickened to challenge passing the eighth pole and ran on strongly in the closing stages to assert by 1 1/4 lengths from Mutahamisa (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), becoming the first winner for her Derrinstown Stud-based freshman sire (by Cape Cross {Ire}). “I rode her at home last week, she put in a nice piece of work and she’s a smart filly,” said winning rider PJ McDonald. “She has a good turn of foot and we were pretty confident, bar it being her first time. It is always the same when you are riding those nice fillies, the space opens up for you and everything went perfect. She travelled well, but froze a little when I got after her at first and then, inside that last furlong, she got going.” Half-sister to a yearling colt by Ribchester (Ire), the February-foaled bay is the fourth foal and second scorer out of a winning half-sister to four black-type performers headed by G2 Queen Mary S. victress and G1 Phoenix S. third Elletelle (Ire) (Elnadim), herself the dam of GI Secretariat S. and G1 Cox Plate-winning sire Adelaide (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Sales history: €48,000 Ylg ’19 GOFOR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $5,217.
