Ancient Wisdom To Be Supplemented To The Kameko Futurity Trophy

Godolphin's Ancient Wisdom (Fr) (Dubawi {Ire}), who cost €2 million as a juvenile at Arqana, will be supplemented for the G1 Kameko Futurity Trophy on Saturday, Oct. 28.

A winner of the G3 Autumn S. last out, the colt is reportedly doing well. His record stands at three wins from four starts for trainer Charlie Appleby, and he pleased connections in a Saturday morning workout.

“Ancient Wisdom, brilliant winner of the G3 Autumn S. on Future Champions Day at Newmarket, worked well this morning and the intention is to supplement him for next weekend's Group 1 Futurity S. at Doncaster,” Godolphin tweeted on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday.

Godolphin’s Eternal Hope Supplemented To Betfred Oaks

Eternal Hope (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}), who won the Listed Lingfield Oaks Trial earlier this month for Godolphin, has been supplemented at a cost of £30,000 to Friday's G1 Betfred Oaks.

Trained by Charlie Appleby, she gave a good account of herself in her Saturday morning work, and her addition brings the Oaks nominees up to 15. Third at Wolverhampton in her debut in February, she won a 10-furlong Chelmsford maiden later that month. At Lingfield, she defeated another potential Oaks starter in the Group 3-placed Be Happy (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), one of six entries for Aidan O'Brien and Coolmore. Part of that sextet is 22-length Listed Cheshire Oaks heroine Savethelastdance (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who won by an almost unbelievable margin earlier in May.

John and Thady Gosden run both listed winner Roaring Lion (GB) (Roaring Lion) and G3 Musidora S. heroine Soul Sister (Ire) (Frankel {GB}). Final declarations will be made on Wednesday morning.

Wood Ditton Hero Passenger Supplemented To Dante Field

The Niarcho Family's Passenger (Ulysses {Ire}) has been supplemented to the G2 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Dante S. at York on May 18. His addition brings the potential field to 14 runners.

Trained by Sir Michael Stoute, the Wood Ditton Maiden S. winner will follow the path of last year's G1 Derby winner Desert Crown (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}), who won the Dante en route to Classic honours at Epsom. Connections paid £14,000 to supplement Passenger, who was scratched from the Listed Dee S. at Chester earlier this week due to ground concerns. The Betfred Derby will take place on Saturday, June 3, and Stoute's colt would also need to be supplemented to that contest, if all goes well on the Knavesmire.

Other entries for the York feature include Listed Blue Riband Trial hero Epictetus (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) from John and Thady Gosden, Flying Honours (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) for Charlie Appleby, and Dear My Friend (GB) (Pivotal {GB}) from the Charlie Johnston yard.

“We've got lots of excited owners on our hands at the moment,” said Middleham Park's Mike Prince of Listed Burradon S. winner Dear My Friend. “Very much the dream is still alive! We'll have a big crowd there next Thursday and they're just really excited, just to see how his season develops. The syndicate were absolutely delighted with his run at Newcastle–the form is working out nicely.

“Him and Flight Plan (GB) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}) had a ding-dong battle in the final furlong but he was quite comfortably on top in the last 100 yards and looked to be extending away.

“He's got a lovely, long stride on him and we think that stride-length will come into play when we step him up to a mile and two. We're pretty adamant that the step up in trip will suit him.”

Never to be discounted in a Classic prep is Aidan O'Brien, who has both the stakes-winning Cairo (Ire) (Quality Road) and two-for-two Continuous (Jpn) (Heart's Cry {Jpn}) entered, while John Murphy's G3 Ballysax S. hero White Birch (GB) (Uyllses {Ire}) is another possible starter. Listed winner Canberra Legend (Ire) (Australia {GB}), G2 Royal Lodge S. hero The Foxes (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) and the Group 3-placed Dancing Magic (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), are also signed on.

Raclette Joins Yorkshire Oaks Cast

Group 2 winner Raclette (GB) (Frankel {GB}) has been supplemented to the Aug. 18 G1 Yorkshire Oaks, according to trainer Andre Fabre. Named a 'TDN Rising Star' at Deauville last August, the bay won the Listed Prix Melisande at ParisLongchamp two starts back in June, and triumphed in the G2 Prix de Malleret in the colours of the late Prince Khalid Abdullah on July 14.

“She will be supplemented for the Yorkshire Oaks,” said Fabre. “She is beginning to mature now and the step up to 12 furlongs suited her last time out, she really stays well.

“I think she wants good ground–good to firm, fast ground is what she wants. Hopefully it will stay dry in August because sometimes for that meeting it can go soft.

“I don't think she will be a filly for the Arc this year as she is still a little bit weak. Perhaps next year when she is stronger.”

The trainer also had an update on Group 1 winner Mare Australis (Ire) (Australia {GB}), who was unplaced in the G1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud.

“He had a valid excuse, he became unbalanced on the track and was pushed out of the race and another horse galloped into his heels,” said Fabre. “Saying that, he's been to Saint-Cloud before and disappointed, so he might just not like the course.

“He'll go for an Arc prep and then the Arc, he likes Longchamp so it makes sense to run him there.”
