Kingman’s TDN Rising Star Nostrum Dominates HQ Feature

Sir Michael Stoute had not won Newmarket's G3 Tattersalls S. since 1994, Annus Mirabilis (Fr) (Warning {GB}) doing the deed back when it was known as the Somerville Tattersall S., and the local elder bridged a 28-year gap after 'TDN Rising Star' Nostrum (GB) (Kingman {GB}–Mirror Lake {GB}, by Dubai Destination) asserted his superiority in taking fashion to frank the impression given on debut in July. Juddmonte's March-foaled bay had delivered a scintillating performance over seven furlongs at Sandown in that only prior outing and accepted a tow in second after a sharp getaway in this black-type bow. Sent forward to dispute the lead from halfway, the 7-4 second choice was shaken up in front passing the quarter-mile marker and kept on powerfully under mild coaxing on the climb to the line to easily tame Listed Chesham S. winner and G2 Vintage S. second Holloway Boy (GB) (Ulysses {Ire}) by 1 1/4 lengths. Godolphin's G2 Superlative S. runner-up and Listed Denford S. scorer Victory Dance (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) was unable to land a telling bow from off the pace and finished three lengths further back in third. Rank outsider Abravaggio (Ire) (Caravaggio) made a bold attempt from the front and was outclassed, but not disgraced, once headed and finished 15 lengths adrift of third.

“I thought it was a very warm race, but he did it very nicely first time and was entitled to come and run in a race like that,” said Stoute after notching an overall fourth winner of the race. “We expected a very big run, but for a horse racing for the first time like he was it is always difficult to fathom. It is so far so good and you could only be pleased. I don't know if we will see him again this season. We will take him home and chill him out and relax him and put him back in fast work. It is a difficult time of year, especially for 2-year-olds when the weather turns, so we don't know. I would like to give him one more run [this year].”

Holloway Boy's trainer Karl Burke was not downcast in defeat and commented, “We're delighted with that as he missed eight to 10 days with a dirty scope and missed the [G2] Champagne S. [at Doncaster]. Danny Tudhope said he would be suited by a mile, so we could look at the [Oct. 22 G1] Vertem Futurity Trophy or, beyond that, the Breeders' Cup.”

Nostrum becomes the third black-type scorer produced by the dual stakes-winning G3 Select S. runner-up Mirror Lake (GB) (Dubai Destination), herself a half-sister to the dam of Listed Lanwades Stud S. victrix Hateya (Ire) (Footstepsinthesand {GB}). The March-foaled homebred bay is a half-brother to dual Group-winning G1 C F Orr S. second Imaging (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), Listed Heatherlie S. victor Titus (GB) (Dansili {GB}) and a yearling filly by Frankel (GB). Descendants of his third dam Roupala (Vaguely Noble {Ire}) include this term's G1 Saudi Cup hero Emblem Road (Quality Road), multiple Grade I-winning distaffer Ventura (Chester House), dual elite-level winners Harlem (GB) (Champs Elysees {GB}) and Queen Supreme (Ire) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}) and stakes-winning G1 Prix Royal-Oak runner-up Erudite (GB) (Generous {Ire}).

LAUREL (GB) (Kingman {GB}) held an entry in Friday's Listed Rosemary S. at Newmarket, but John and Thady Gosden have opted for this lighter task for the Juddmonte homebred.

KOVANOF (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) is a son of the G3 Prix Cleopatre winner and G1 Prix de Diane third Terrakova (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and therefore a grandson of the brilliant Goldikova (Ire) (Anabaa) who represents the Wertheimer-Carlos Laffon-Parias link. Among his peers is The Aga Khan's Beshtani (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}), a Francis-Henri Graffard-trained relative of the G1 Grand Prix de Paris winner Behkabad  (Fr) (Cape Cross {Ire}).

Gimcrack Hero Noble Style To Miss Middle Park Due To Colic

Godolphin's unbeaten G2 Gimcrack S. hero Noble Style (GB) (Kingman {GB}) will miss the G1 Juddmonte Middle Park S. at Newmarket on Sept. 24 after suffering from a bout of colic. Successful at Ascot in May and Newmarket two months later, Noble Style ran out a 1 1/4-length victor of the Gimcrack at York on Aug. 19.

“Unfortunately, Noble Style suffered from a bout of colic at the weekend and has subsequently missed an important piece of work,” Godolphin tweeted on Wednesday morning.

“Therefore, he will not line up for the Middle Park S. on Sept. 24.”

14.45 Great Yarmouth, Mdn, £14,000, 2yo, 7f 3yT
John and Thady Gosden trainee OBELIX (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), who will sport KHK Racing's G1 St Leger-winning colours, bumped into a good one when second on debut at Newmarket last month and faces a field of potential in a contest won in 2017 by subsequent G1 Coral-Eclipse third Regal Reality (GB) (Intello {Ger}) and in 2018 by subsequent G1 Criterium International hero Royal Meeting (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}). The €300,000 Arqana Breeze-Up acquisition is out of a half-sister to six stakes performers, most notably the Group 1-winning trio Awelmarduk (Ire) (Almutawakel {GB}), Jakkalberry (Ire) (Storming Home {GB}) and Crackerjack King (Ire) (Shamardal).

He is met by 11, including Juddmonte's fellow newcomer Leadenhall (GB) (Kingman {GB}), who is a Ralph Beckett-trained son of G1 Pretty Polly S. heroine and G1 Prix de l'Opera second Promising Lead (GB) (Danehill).
