Lope de Vega’s New Science Strikes For Newmarket Success

Charlie Appleby trainee New Science (GB) (Lope de Vega {Ire}), who ran seventh in Royal Ascot's Listed Chesham S., followed up a first black-type win in July's Listed Pat Eddery S. with a fourth in ParisLongchamp's Sept. 5 G3 Prix La Rochette and lined up match fit for Tuesday's Listed bet365 European Free H. coming back off a third in Meydan's Feb. 4 Listed Jumeirah Classic. Godolphin's €260,000 Arqana Select yearling was steadied to race in fourth after the break and remained there through halfway. Looming large at the quarter-mile marker, he was shaken up for control approaching the final furlong and was ridden out on the climb to the line to assert by 1 1/4 lengths from G3 Horris Hill S. third Tacarib Bay (GB) (Night of Thunder {Ire}) for a second stakes triumph.

“We were disappointed in Meydan when he got beat, but we have been there before and were confident he would come forward and he has,” commented Charlie Appleby. “He is a set model and has got some good 2-year-old form which, thankfully, he has brought to the table this afternoon. I was pleased with his homework, Paul Eddery rides him at home, and I have to give credit to the team as he has very shallow feet and had very poor growth on them. He has been back here the last two weeks and we were confident that run in Dubai brought him forward coming into today.” Looking ahead to the possibility of skipping the track's G1 2000 Guineas at the beginning of next month, the trainer added, “I'm not going to be bold and say he will see out a mile as he has shown a lot of pace there. Personally, I think he is a tailor-made [Royal Ascot G3] Jersey horse.”

New Science is the fourth of five foals and one of two scorers produced by G2 Park Hill S. and G3 Lillie Langtry S. placegetter Alta Lilea (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), herself a half-sister to the dual stakes-placed Mistress Quickly (Ire) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}) and Listed Feilden S. runner-up Fighter Boy (Ire) (Rock of Gibraltar {Ire}). The March-foaled bay is a half-brother to a 2-year-old filly by Kingman (GB). Descendants of his G2 Prix de l'Opera-winning third dam Mona Stella (Nureyev), herself kin to MG1SW G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches heroine Dancing Maid (Fr) (Lyphard), include G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud-winning sire Special Quest (Fr) (Rainbow Quest).

Solario Next For New Science

Godolphin's New Science (GB) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) is bound for the Aug. 21 G3 Solario S. at Sandown after pleasing trainer Charlie Appleby since winning the Listed Pat Eddery S. over seven furlongs at Ascot on July 24. A first out winner at Yarmouth on May 28, the bay colt tired to seventh in the Listed Chesham S. at Royal Ascot on June 19.

Appleby, who won the 2017 Solario with subsequent Derby hero Masar (Ire) (New Approach {Ire}), said, “The Solario is very much the target for New Science and I was pleased with the way he came out of Ascot.

“You can put a line through his run in the Chesham and he has since come back out and backed it up with a good win in the Pat Eddery S. It was a great form boost [for the Pat Eddery] with the second horse Angel Bleu (Fr) (Dark Angel {Ire}) coming out and winning the G2 Vintage S. at Goodwood last week.”

Lope de Vega’s New Science Gets Up at Ascot

Godolphin's €260,000 Arqana Select yearling New Science (GB) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) backed up a May 28 debut success going a shade over seven furlongs at Great Yarmouth with a seventh-of-10 effort when contesting a stellar renewal of Royal Ascot's June 19 Listed Chesham S. last time. He was sent postward with crowd support for Saturday's Listed Pat Eddery S. tackling the Berkshire venue's same seven-furlong strip and delivered a game display to register a career high. Steadied to settle off the pace in fifth until taking closer order approaching the quarter-mile marker, the 2-1 pick was shaken up for his bid with 1 1/2 furlongs remaining and kept on strongly under continued rousting to subdue Angel Bleu (Fr) (Dark Angel {Ire}) by a length nearing the line.

“He pleased us the first day at [Great] Yarmouth, which turned out to be a half-decent race, and then he just didn't handle the ground at Royal Ascot,” said assistant trainer Alex Merriam of the Sept. 12 G1 Goffs Vincent O'Brien National S. entry. “William [Buick] knew he wasn't handling it on the way to the start [last time] and we've just written that one off. He jumped nicely here, he travelled well and that was very pleasing. We'll be looking to step him up in grade now and something like the [G3] Solario [at Sandown] could be a possibility. His pedigree screams a mile and it's a staying pedigree, but we'll stick to seven [furlongs] for the time being.”

New Science is the latest of four foals and one of two scorers produced by G2 Park Hill S. and G3 Lillie Langtry S. placegetter Alta Lilea (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), herself a half-sister to the dual stakes-placed Mistress Quickly (Ire) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}) and Listed Feilden S. runner-up Fighter Boy (Ire) (Rock of Gibraltar {Ire}). Descendants of his G2 Prix de l'Opera-winning third dam Mona Stella (Nureyev), herself kin to MG1SW G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches heroine Dancing Maid (Fr) (Lyphard), include G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud-winning sire Special Quest (Fr) (Rainbow Quest).
