Bated Breath’s Juliet Sierra To The Fore At Salisbury

Juddmonte's 2-year-old filly Juliet Sierra (GB) (Bated Breath {GB}–Kilo Alpha {GB}, by King's Best) bettered a July 22 debut second going six furlongs at Newmarket with a breakthrough score over much the same trip at Nottingham last month and continued her rapid rise with a career high on stakes bow in Thursday's G3 Ire-Incentive It Pays To Buy Irish Dick Poole Fillies' S. at Salisbury. Finding a smooth rhythm behind the leaders in fifth after an alert getaway, the 9-2 favourite tanked forward to launch her challenge passing the quarter-mile marker and was ridden out in the closing stages to assert superiority by a neck from All The Time (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}).

“She's a beautiful filly by our own stallion Bated Breath and it was a lovely performance,” said Juddmonte's racing manager Barry Mahon. “She's always been well regarded by Ralph [Beckett] and Rob [Hornby] and she delivered today. Ralph and myself were confident she'd get seven [furlongs] after the last day and Ralph said let's keep her over six for now, but I thought today it looked like she'd sharpened up a bit. She's in the [seven-furlong G2] Rockfel and the [six-furlong G1] Cheveley Park. They are three weeks away and I suppose it's a big jump from a Group 3 to a Group 1, but we are getting into that time of year where options are getting tight. Ralph is in Baden-Baden at the sales so we haven't had the discussion yet, but they are good discussions to have. She's a beautiful filly, she looks good and when they win a Group 3 they are heading in the right direction.”

Juliet Sierra is the eighth of 10 foals and one of six scorers out of Listed Prix de Bagatelle victrix Kilo Alpha (GB) (King's Best), herself a full-sister to multiple stakes-winning G1 Prix d'Ispahan third Runaway (GB). The February-foaled homebred bay is a half-sister to GI Jenny Wiley S. heroine Juliet Foxtrot (GB) (Dansili {GB}), G3 Prix Thomas Bryon runner-up Alpha Bravo (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), the dual stakes-placed Bravo Sierra (GB) (Siyouni {Fr}), a yearling filly by Kingman (GB) and a weanling colt by Expert Eye (GB). Her second dam Anasazi (Ire) (Sadler's Wells) is a half-sister to the Classic-winning duo Dancing Brave (Lyphard) and Jolypha (Lyphard).

Romantic Time A Second Pattern-Race Winner in Two Days For Time Test

William Stone trainee Romantic Time (GB) (Time Test {GB}), who snagged five-furlong heats at Great Yarmouth and Sandown in July, stepped forward off a three-length eighth in Newbury's Listed St Hugh's S. last month to pounce for victory in Thursday's G3 IRE Incentive Scheme Dick Poole Fillies' S. at Salisbury. She was an unconsidered 28-1 outsider for this first outing over the six-furlong trip and an attempt at becoming the second pattern-race winner in two days for her freshman sire (by Dubawi {Ire}), following the success of Rocchigiani (GB) in Baden-Baden's G3 Zukunftsrennen. Romantic Time was slowly into stride and raced off the pace in rear through halfway. Making headway and sticking to the far-side rail inside the final quarter mile, she quickened to the front with 100 yards remaining en route to an ultimately snug one-length success from Pearl Glory (Ire) (Cotai Glory {GB}).

“It's brilliant and I'm absolutely thrilled to get my first Group winner,” said Cambridgeshire-based conditioner William Stone. “Hollie [Doyle] gave the horse a great ride and that was super. The step up to six [furlongs] was great and I think she was a bit unlucky [at Newbury] last time. She got going a bit late there and met a bit of trouble in running, which didn't help her. I don't know what we'll do now, because we came here not knowing if she'd stay six, so I couldn't really look at anything for her until we got today out of the way. We'll just look at different options and go from there.”

Romantic Time, kin to a yearling filly by Tasleet (GB), is the second of three foals and lone performer produced by a half-sister to Listed Chester S. placegetter Top Tug (Ire) (Halling). Her Listed Oh So Sharp S.-winning second dam Top Romance (Ire) (Entrepreneur {GB}) is a half-sister to MGSP GII San Francisco Breeders' Cup H. third National Anthem (GB) (Royal Academy) and a granddaughter of Listed Prix Charles Laffitte victrix La Romance (Lyphard).

Kingman’s Megallan Strikes For Sovereign Success at Salisbury

Hampered in the straight when 12th contesting Chantilly's June 6 G1 Prix du Jockey Club last time, Anthony Oppenheimer's homebred 3-year-old colt Megallan (GB) (Kingman {GB}) gained some measure of recompense with a career-high win dropping down to a mile for Thursday's G3 D & N Construction Sovereign S. at Salisbury. The April-foaled bay had earlier secured a stakes breakthrough when successful in Newcastle's Apr. 2 Listed Burradon S. and followed up with a May 13 G2 Dante S. second at York in his penultimate start. He tracked the tempo under cover in a handy fourth after an alert getaway here. Improving to go third at halfway, the 7-4 favourite was angled into the clear for his challenge approaching the quarter-mile marker and was driven out once gaining a narrow advantage with 1 1/2 furlongs remaining to assert by a length and a nose from Sir Busker (Ire) (Sir Prancealot {Ire}) and Perotto (GB) (New Bay {GB}).

“He did well dropping to a mile, he enjoyed the [good] ground and we're delighted,” said Thady Gosden. “He ran a great race [behind subsequent G1 Irish Derby and G1 Grand Prix de Paris winner Hurricane Lane] in the Dante and looked like the winner at one stage, but was obviously beaten by a very good horse. We took him to the French Derby and, with all the changes after Brexit, it's a bit more of a journey over and it's much tougher on them. He didn't necessarily run his race there and it's great to see him back to himself today. He showed he has the speed for a mile, but he also stays a mile-and-a-quarter, so we'll see where we go from here.”

Megallan is the second of four foals and lone scorer produced by MGSP Listed Lord Weinstock Memorial S. victress Eastern Belle (GB) (Champs Elysees {GB}), herself a half-sister to MG1SW sire Golden Horn (GB) (Cape Cross {Ire}) and last term's G3 Autumn S. third Dhahabi (Ire) (Frankel {GB}). He is a full-brother to the hitherto unraced 2-year-old colt Super Chief (GB) and half to a weanling colt by Sea the Stars (Ire). His second dam Fleche d'Or is an unraced half-sister to six stakes performers, headed by G1 Coronation S. heroine Rebecca Sharp (GB) (Machiavellian). Black-type descendants of the bay's third dam Nuryana (GB) (Nureyev) also include G2 Ribblesdale S.-winning G1 Epsom Oaks third Frankly Darling (GB) (Frankel {GB}), G3 Lingfield Derby Trial victor Mystic Knight (GB) (Caerleon) and GSW G2 Lancashire Oaks placegetter Precious Ramotswe (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}).
