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.

Frankel’s Sapphire Seas Takes The John Musker

News — Wed, 20 Sep 2023 15:58:34 +0000

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.”

Treble up for Buick, Appleby and @godolphin!

Observations: Millionaire Son of Urban Fox Debuts at Yarmouth

News — Wed, 31 May 2023 17:46:48 +0000

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}).

Soldier’s Call’s Born To Rock A New TDN Rising Star

News — Wed, 24 May 2023 16:52:32 +0000

Aptly-named, Laurence Holder's 2-year-old Royal Ascot-bound debutante Born To Rock (Ire) (Soldier's Call {GB}–Love To Rock {Ire}, by Fastnet Rock {Aus}) burned up Yarmouth's ever-drying turf on Wednesday to become the latest TDN Rising Star. Prepared for the five-furlong British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden Fillies' S. by Jane Chapple-Hyam having been purchased for 110,000gns at the Tatts Guineas Breeze Up Sale, the bay fitted with the stable's white bridle and reins showed key early pace under Robert Tart racing away from the main pack towards the far side. Always in command on the front end, the 7-2 second favourite opened up passing two out and was being eased late as she registered a 4 1/4-length defeat of the Gosdens' newcomer Jiwin (Ire) (Acclamation {GB}), with 3/4 of a length back to the Michael Bell-trained Mirroring (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}).

Really impressive debut! Soldier's Call filly Born To Rock makes a big impression at @GTYarmouthRaces for @Rob_tart and @JaneChappleHyam… pic.twitter.com/TVTZggZxbd

— At The Races (@AtTheRaces) May 24, 2023

Ballyhane Stud-based Soldier's Call's first TDN Rising Star from his first crop, the winner is on target for the G2 Queen Mary S. according to Chapple-Hyam. “She's worked with the horse in the previous race and with the colt that won last week and they've all been thereabouts in the gallops, but she's turned it on this afternoon,” she said. “We have to go for the Queen Mary, definitely.”

“She was a gorgeous physical as a yearling,” Derryconnor Stud's Katie Mcgivern told TDN Europe. “She had a huge walk, great use of herself with strength and size.”

Mcgivern purchased the filly for €17,000 at the Goffs Sportsman's Sale and subsequently sold her for 110,000gns to Amanda Skiffington (agent for Laurence Holder) at the Tattersalls Guineas Breeze Up Sale.

“She toed out a little which reflected her €17,000 price tag but my husband Tom and I couldn't leave her behind. She was always such an athlete,” she said.

“She was easy to break and prep for the breeze-up sales throughout the winter. We knew we had something special as she not only had the pace but she had this huge stride to go with it and loved her work.”

“We were very excited about her heading to the Guineas Sale but Soldier's Call only had one winner at that stage so knew there was going to be a limit to what she was worth.”

The Ballyhane stallion has since had a flurry of winners taking his total to nine.

“She's a filly with a very exciting future as she's not just a sharp 2-year-old type. She has size and scope and more developing still to do so we look forward to how she progresses throughout the season. We very much look forward to her lining up in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot with a fighting chance.”

One of nine winners from the first crop of the speedy and accomplished son of Showcasing (GB), Born To Rock is a grandson of the GIII Athenia H. runner-up I'm In Love (Zafonic) who produced the G3 Stockholms Stora Pris scorer Match Maker (Ire) (Declaration Of War) and the GIII Miesque S. winner More Than Love (More Than Ready). A distant relative of the sire Weldnaas, the moderate performer Love To Rock has just the sole progeny to date.

Mehmas’s Knight A New Rising Star At Yarmouth

News — Sun, 25 Sep 2022 13:49:25 +0000

KHK Racing's stellar September continued on Sunday as the Simon and Ed Crisford-trained Knight (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}–Fidaaha {Ire}, by New Approach {Ire}) stormed to success at Yarmouth to become the latest of the TDN Rising Star juveniles of 2022. Always travelling strongly in second for Cameron Noble after a tardy break in this seven-furlong Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 “Newcomers” Maiden S., the 11-2 shot took command three out and was busy surging clear a furlong later. Chased by the €370,000 Arqana Deauville August graduate Irregular Warfare (Fr) (Saxon Warrior {Jpn}) in the closing stages, the full-brother to Malavath (Ire) kept him at bay to score by two lengths, with another 3 3/4 lengths back to the Gosdens' strongly-supported 6-4 favourite Rajasthan (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) in third.

“They went quite steady and the leader took me as far as he could, but ideally I needed something to take me further as he's still quite raw,” Noble said of the sire's first TDN Rising Star. “He's a nice individual and I'd say he wouldn't want it too much quicker than that. He could be anything–he did that smartly considering he is quite green.”

Knight, who cost 210,000gns at the Book 2 Sale, is the second foal out of the Shadwell cast-off whose first was the aforementioned Malavath, winner of the G2 Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte and G3 Prix Imprudence and runner-up in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf. Fidaaha is a full-sister to Ceisteach (Ire), who captured the GIII Robert G. Dick Memorial S., and a half to Steip Amach (Ire) (Vocalised) who annexed the G3 Killavullan S. and G3 Amethyst S. before finishing third in the G1 Prix Rothschild and G1 Prix Jean Romanet. Her filly by Cotai Glory (GB) sells as lot 459 from Tally-Ho Stud at the Goffs Orby Sale on Wednesday, while she also has a foal full-brother to the winner and Malavath.
