Samuel Colt Takes On Tetrarch Challenge

[Wandering Eyes]

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 pair of No Nay Never colts who are contesting Curragh listed races.

SAMUEL COLT (IRE) (No Nay Never) is the star turn in this Listed Coolmore Stud Paddington Irish EBF Tetrarch S., named in honour of the colt who won 12 months ago en route to stardom. Runner-up in the G3 Ballylinch Stud S. last month, the Ballydoyle representative who is a relative of the G1 Melbourne Cup runner-up Tiger Moth (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and Oasis Dream's sire Coach House (Ire) faces four rivals in this course-and-distance G1 Irish 2000 Guineas prep.

WHISTLEJACKET (IRE) (No Nay Never), a full-brother to Little Big Bear (Ire), bids to build on his debut second over six furlongs here last month in this Listed First Flier S. won for the last two years by his Ballydoyle stable. Among the opponents to the 500,000gns Tattersalls Book 1 purchase is AMO Racing and Giselle De Aguiar's course-and-distance maiden winner Arizona Blaze (GB), who looks to provide his first-season sire Sergei Prokofiev with his first black-type winner.
