First Black Type Winner for Shadwell’s Mohaather

[Wandering Eyes]

One of two maidens in the line-up for Friday's Listed Ire-Incentive – Pays To Buy Irish Rose Bowl Stakes at Newbury, Phil Cunningham's Yah Mo Be There (GB) (Mohaather {GB}–Shurakaa {Ire}, by Night Of Thunder {Ire}) produced a telling turn of foot to provide his first-crop sire with a breakthrough black-type winner at the track on which the Shadwell freshman captured the G3 Greenham Stakes and G3 Horris Hill Stakes. Second on debut to the highly-regarded Andesite (GB) (Pinatubo {Ire}) at York in May before running down the field in Royal Ascot's G2 Coventry Stakes, the Richard Spencer-trained 9-2 shot was slowly away but fortunate in that he had the ultimate hold-up specialist Jamie Spencer on his back to steer him.

Allowed to languish in last for most of the contest, the £95,000 Goffs UK Premier Yearling Sale graduate delivered a surge to take control passing the furlong pole and beat Jungle Drums (Ire) (Bungle Inthejungle {GB}) with authority by 1 1/4 lengths. The race was robbed of a crucial actor when Godolphin's Symbol Of Honour (GB) (Havana Grey {GB}) was ruled out by Charlie Appleby, but this was an impressive display from a colt who was clear-best of those left to contest the juvenile staging post.

Yah Mo Be There is so far the only foal out of the unraced dam, a daughter of the G3 Oak Tree Stakes-placed Namhroodah (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) and full-sister to the G1 Moyglare Stud Stakes third and G2 Prix du Calvados runner-up Ornellaia (GB). He is also the third winner for Mohaather.
