Sunday's five-furlong Tattersalls £40,000 EBF Fillies' Novice S. at Newmarket looked by far the most intriguing 2-year-old race staged in this country so far in 2024 and the outcome did not disappoint as Godolphin's Charlie Appleby-trained Mountain Breeze (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}–Lava Flow {Ire}, by Dalakhani {Ire}) justified 7-4 favouritism to earn TDN Rising Star status. A half-sister to her stable's juvenile champion Pinatubo (Ire) (Shamardal), the chestnut who had only turned two at the start of the month broke smartly and had an ideal target ahead in the Karl Burke-trained River Seine (Ire) (Soldier's Call {GB}). Subduing that daughter of the celebrity Indian Ink (Ire) (Indian Ridge {Ire}) at the furlong pole, she drew away with relish up the rising ground to score impressively by 2 3/4 lengths. There was a head back to the Hannon runner Miss Collada (GB) (Mehmas {Ire}) in a race that will need close monitoring as Royal Ascot nears. “She is a very straightforward and professional filly and pulled away from them, which is nice to see,” William Buick said. “I think she wants six now, so that's where her immediate future lies and I'd expect her to get further too.” Appleby added, “We were pretty confident coming here and hoping that she'd do what she did. We'll hopefully get another run into her before Ascot and look at the [six-furlong G3] Albany.” The post Lope De Vega Half To Pinatubo A New TDN Rising Star appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Like Saturday's 2000 Guineas winner Notable Speech (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) introduced on the all-weather during the winter, Sheikh Ahmed Al Maktoum's blueblood Elmalka (GB) (Kingman {GB}) arrived late on the scene to emerge triumphant in the G1 QIPCO 1000 Guineas and cause a second surprise in Newmarket's weekend mile Classics. Coming off her debut success at Southwell in late November to finish a staying-on third in the seven-furlong G3 Fred Darling S. at Newbury last month, the Roger Varian-trained daughter of the G1 Prix de l'Opera and GI Flower Bowl Invitational heroine Nahrain (GB) (Selkirk) and half-sister to Benbatl (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) was last and detached early and looked to be struggling at times. Cajoled along by Silvestre De Sousa, the 28-1 shot found some momentum on the wing to reel in the likely winner Ramatuelle (Justify) in the last strides and prevail by a neck from Porta Fortuna (Ire) (Caravaggio), who denied the French raider the silver medal in the shade of the post by a short head. The result represented a notable double on the card for Kingman, with his potentially top-class Friendly Soul (GB) having captured the Listed Pretty Polly S.

We already knew we were dealing with an Oaks filly in Juddmonte's Kalpana (GB) (Study Of Man {Ire}) prior to Sunday's Listed William Hill Pretty Polly S. at Newmarket, but now we have another after George Strawbridge's Friendly Soul (GB) (Kingman {GB}–In Clover {GB}), by Inchinor {GB}) took her measure in an epic renewal of the 10-furlong Classic trial. To the fore soon after the start under Kieran Shoemark, the 10-1 shot who scored on debut at Kempton in December had everything on the stretch bar that 4-6 favourite heading to the final two furlongs and they went on to make it a match to the line. Despite the effort of the eventual runner-up, it was Friendly Soul who had more to give to provide the Gosdens with another major Oaks contender. At the line, there was 1 1/4 lengths between the homebred half-sister to the group 1 winners With You (GB) (Dansili {GB}), Call The Wind (GB) (Frankel {GB}) and We Are (Ire) (Dansili {GB}) and Kalpana, who in turn had a huge 12-length margin to spare over the third Kitteridge (GB) (Camelot {GB}). “She's a big, scopey filly and very fresh, but she couldn't have impressed me any more,” Shoemark said. “She has a big stride and I let her use herself and she quickened up nicely. She was getting lonely in front and so it helped me when Oisin [Murphy] came to me and she was well on top at the line. She's really one to look forward to and is obviously going to improve off that fitness-wise. She's by Kingman and while I'm sure a mile and a half won't be an issue in time, possibly the Diane might be for her.” Thady Gosden added, “She's got plenty of speed and that was a hot race. There is the French Oaks as well as the Oaks, so we'll have to see.” The post Kingman’s Friendly Soul Wins The Pretty Polly appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
