14.23 Yarmouth, Nov, £9,950, 2yo, f, 8f 3yT
Emirates Park's homebred EJAABIYAH (GB) (Frankel {GB}) is a Roger Varian-conditioned daughter of G1 Golden Slipper heroine Estijaab (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus}), who encounters nine rivals in this unveiling. Team Gosden has won the last three renewals of this heat and is represented here by Godolphin homebred Juneberry (Ire) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}). She is out of G2 Lancashire Oaks victrix and G1 Prix Vermeille second Pomology (Arch) and thus kin to G3 Zetland S. victor and G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud third Goldspur (Aus) (Dubawi {Ire}). Completing a trio of well-related debutantes is Charlie Fellowes representative Mohave Dancer (Ire) (Kingman {GB}), who is a 300,000gns Tattersalls October Book 2 daughter of G1 Queensland Oaks heroine Winning Ways (Aus) (Declaration Of War). Memento Vivere Racing's once-raced Rouge Sellier (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) posted a debut third over this trip at Haydock at the end of last month and hails from the stable of Sir Mark Prescott. The 260,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 acquisition is a three-parts sister to G1 Cheveley Park S. winner Lumiere (GB) (Shamardal) and GI E. P. Taylor S. victrix Sheikha Reika (Fr) (Shamardal). Another set to make the trip up the A11 from Newmarket is Michael Bell trainee Climate Action (GB) (Cracksman {GB}), who is a half-sister to three black-type performers out of a half-sister to five-time Group 1 winner and multiple Classic heroine User Friendly (GB) (Slip Anchor {GB}). She comes back off a runner-up finish, behind subsequent G1 Fillies' Mile seventh Seaward (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), in a one-mile test at Ascot last month. Climate Action's stakes-placed half-sister Madame Defarge (Ire) (Motivator {GB}) won this contest for the Bell yard in 2012.

Saffron Beach’s Brother Debuts at Yarmouth

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. Monday's Observations features a full brother to Saffron Beach (Ire) (New Bay {GB}) first out at Yarmouth. 

13.55 Yarmouth, Novice, £9,950, 2yo, 7f 3yT
GRANGER BAY (IRE) (New Bay {GB}) makes his debut for Jane Chapple-Hyam, who guided his full-sister Saffron Beach (Ire) through a stellar career which included successes in the G1 Sun Chariot S., G1 Prix Rothschild and G2 Duke of Cambridge S. Bought for €450,000 at Goffs Orby, Fiona Carmichael and Ballylinch Stud's newcomer meets the Gosdens' unraced Dubawi Time (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), Sheikh Juma Dalmook Al Maktoum's half-brother to the stable's high-class five-times group 2 winner Enbihaar (Ire) (Redoute's Choice {Aus}).

HOW THEY FARED
14.33 ParisLongchamp, Mdn, €50,000, unraced 2yo, c/g, 9fT
Al Asayl France's homebred newcomer Map Of Stars (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), a Francis-Henri Graffard-trained son of G1 Prix Vermeille heroine Bateel (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), was out of his comfort zone throughout, but found plenty under pressure in the straight to score by an ultimately snug one-length margin.

Frankel’s Sapphire Seas Takes The John Musker

Coming into Wednesday's Listed EBF Stallions John Musker Fillies' S. off a win in Haydock's Reprocolor Premier Fillies' H. 13 days previously, Godolphin's Sapphire Seas (GB) (Frankel {GB}) raised her game again to beat some talented peers for her black-type breakthrough. Tracking the leaders early, the 9-2 shot travelled smoothly to the fore under William Buick approaching two out and had command soon after. Pushed out to assert her superiority, the Charlie Appleby-trained homebred hit the line with 2 1/2 lengths to spare over the smart yardstick Mukaddamah (GB) (New Approach {Ire}), with the returning TDN Rising Star Infinite Cosmos (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) 3/4 of a length away in third. The 10-11 favourite Al Asifah (GB) (Frankel {GB}), who had so impressed earlier in the season, was only seventh.

Buick, who registered a four-timer on the card for Appleby, said, “It was a very smart performance. She won nicely last time at Haydock in a fillies' handicap and she's certainly stepped up on that. She's going to keep improving hopefully. I would say the team will be delighted with what they saw there and hopefully she'll be around for next year. This is a nice race, a lovely race for fillies. Let's hope she can go on to better things.”

Sapphire Seas' Listed Meydan Classic-winning dam Pure Diamond (GB) (Street Cry {Ire}) is a daughter of the G3 Prix Miesque winner White Rose (Ger) (Platini {Ger}) who was also second in the G1 Preis der Diana. Responsible also for the fellow listed scorers Elite Army (GB) (Authorized {Ire}) and Promesse De L'Aube (Fr) (Galileo {Ire}), the family includes Wild Coco (Ger) (Shirocco {Ger}) who captured the G2 Park Hill S. and two renewals of the G3 Lillie Langtry S. and was second in the G1 Prix Vermeille. Pure Diamond also has an as-yet unnamed 2-year-old colt by Kingman (GB) and a filly foal by Night Of Thunder (Ire).

Observations: Millionaire Son of Urban Fox Debuts at Yarmouth

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 Insights features a regally-bred son of Dubawi and G1SW Urban Fox.

14.30 Yarmouth, Novice, £6,800, 2yo, 7f 3yT
INNER CITY (IRE) (Dubawi {Ire}) is one of two Godolphin newcomers to catch the eye in one of the initial seven-furlong 2-year-old races, being a 1.1million gns Book 1 graduate and second foal out of the G1 Pretty Polly S. heroine Urban Fox (GB) (Foxwedge {Aus}). Charlie Appleby, who has won this for the last three years including most recently with one of 2022's leading lights Naval Power (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}), saddles the February-foaled bay while Saeed bin Suroor unveils Royal Army (GB) (Masar {Ire}). A son of his stable's G1 Yorkshire Oaks winner Punctilious (GB) (Danehill), he is therefore a half-brother to another of the trainer's classy performers in the G3 Autumn S. winner Military March (GB) (New Approach {Ire}).
