Frankel Filly A New TDN Rising Star At Deauville

Alain and Gerard Wertheimer's hitherto unraced 2-year-old filly Kelina (Ire) (Frankel {GB}–Incahoots {GB}, by Oasis Dream {GB}) was let go at odds of 29-5 for Saturday's Prix des Marettes at Deauville and returned home with a 'TDN Rising Star' tag after posting a taking pillar-to-post performance in the 7 1/2-furlong debutantes' heat. The eventual winner was the sharpest of one dozen into stride and seized an immediate lead. Holding sway throughout, she was shaken up when threatened passing the quarter-mile marker and ran on strongly once quickening clear approaching the eighth pole to easily outclass Shalromy (Fr) (Shalaa {Ire}) by an impressive three lengths.

Kelina is the third of five foals and second scorer from as many runners produced by Listed Prix Saonois victrix Incahoots (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), herself a full-sister to dual stakes-winning G3 Prix de Lieurey third Dream Clover (GB) out of G3 Prix de Flore winner In Clover (GB) (Inchinor {GB}). Produce of the February-foaled homebred bay's second dam also includes G1 Prix du Cadran victor Call The Wind (GB) (Frankel {GB}), G1 Prix Rothschild heroine With You (GB) (Dansili {GB}), G1 Prix de l'Opera victrix We Are (Ire) (Dansili {GB}) and Listed Grand Prix Anjou Bretagne winner In Crowd (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}). In Clover is also the second dam of this term's G1 Prix Saint-Alary third Queen Trezy (Fr) (Almanzor {Fr}). Kelina is full to a weanling colt and a half to Listed Prix Petite Etoile runner-up Ansilia (Ire) (Dansili {GB}) and a yearling colt by Lope De Vega (Ire).

Lillie Langtry’s Latest Appears At The Curragh

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. Saturday's Observations features a daughter of superproducer Lillie Langtry (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}).

1.20 Newmarket, Debutantes, £8,000, Mdn, 2yo, 7fT
JALAPA (GB) (Expert Eye {GB}) is one of the first of the bluebloods to appear on a fascinating Saturday and the half-sister to Westover (GB) (Frankel {GB}) represents the Juddmonte-Ralph Beckett combination responsible for the Irish Derby hero. The April-foaled bay encounters a Charlie Appleby representative in Elegant Charm (Ire) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}), a granddaughter of the Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Gossamer (GB) (Sadler's Wells).

 

1.30 Curragh, Mdn, €16,500, 2yo, 7fT
BOY SCOUT (GB) (Frankel {GB}) is one of two Ballydoyle newcomers in this intriguing affair and the pick of Ryan Moore, with the 925,000gns Book 1 graduate being a half-brother to the GII Glens Falls S. winner and GI Flower Bowl S. runner-up Mrs Sippy (Blame). A relative of Grand Lodge, the April-foaled bay is joined by another colt of significance from Rosegreen in Salt Lake City (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), the first foal out of the G2 Queen Mary S. and G2 Flying Childers S. winner Heartache (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}) who was purchased by Coolmore for 1.3 million gns at the 2018 Tattersalls December Mares Sale.

 

2.05 Curragh, Cond, €27,000, 2yo, f, 7fT
DELIGHTFUL (IRE) (Galileo {Ire}) is another major presence on the card, being the eighth foal out of Coolmore's superproducer Lillie Langtry (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}). While Ryan Moore has opted for the experienced daughter of Clemmie (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), Unless (Justify), the late May-foaled full-sister to Minding (Ire), Tuesday (Ire) and Empress Josephine (Ire) will have eyes upon her for positive signs with her career ahead of her.

 

3.50 Deauville, Debutantes, €27,000, 2yo, f, 7 1/2fT
ARDENT (Frankel {GB}) is another big Juddmonte prospect on the day, being a daughter of the four-times Grade I winner Emollient (Empire Maker) and a full-sister to the fellow Andre Fabre-trained G2 Prix de Malleret scorer Raclette (GB). There is another Frankel lurking here in the Wertheimers' Kelina (Ire), a Carlos Laffon-Parias-trained relative of Dansili's Group 1-winning siblings With You (GB) and We Are (Ire).

Relative Of Eminent Debuts At Sandown

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 relative of Group 2 winner Eminent (Ire) (Frankel {GB}).

4.38 Deauville, Debutantes, €27,000, 2yo, c/g, 6fT
WILLIAM TELL (FR) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) at €420,000 was the joint-second highest-priced lot at last year's Arqana Deauville October Yearling Sale and debuts days after that auction's topper Denmark (GB) (Camelot {GB}) made an impressive winning racecourse bow. Trained by Andre Fabre for Godolphin, the January-foaled Ecurie Des Monceaux-bred black colt is out of a half-sister to the triple Group 1-winning sire Charm Spirit (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}).

 

6.36 Sandown, Mdn, £9,900, 2yo, 8fT
HIGH HONOUR (GB) (Frankel {GB}) debuts in the maiden won in recent years by the sire's Westover (GB) and also by Too Darn Hot (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) and made a splash at the Book 1 when selling for 900,000gns, being out of a half-sister to Frankel's G2 Prix Guillaume d'Ornano and G3 Craven S.-winning sire Eminent (Ire). Starting for Godolphin and Charlie Appleby, who have won this twice in the past five years and whose first-string Desert Order (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) will be a warm order having been third in a strong Newmarket July Festival maiden, the February-foaled bay is also up against another experienced rival who carries gravitas in Juddmonte's Arrest (GB) (Frankel {GB}). One of three to top the 2020 Goffs November Foal Sale, the John and Thady Gosden-trained colt will give an early indication as to the merit of the operation's TDN Rising Star Nostrum (GB) (Kingman {GB}) who beat him into third over seven here last month.
