Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 26 Journalists Share Posted July 26 Dual Group 1 winner Emily Upjohn (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) has been supplemented at a cost of £40,000 to the G1 Qatar Nassau Stakes at Goodwood on Aug. 1. Her addition brings the field to 12, with her rivals including both John and Thady Gosden stablemate Inspiral (GB) (Frankel {GB}), and trainer Aidan O'Brien's Group 1 winner Opera Singer (Justify). Second in the G1 Oaks at three, the daughter of Hidden Brief (GB) (Barathea {Ire}) would go on to take the G1 British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes later that year, and added the G1 Coronation Cup at four. In three 2024 starts, the mare was fifth in the G1 Dubai Sheema Classic at Meydan in March, before running fourth in her Coronation Cup defense in May. Her latest appearance was a good second in the G1 Pretty Polly Stakes at the end of June. The aforementioned Inspiral, a homebred for Cheveley Park Stud, is one of Emily Upjohn's biggest rivals. “It will be Goodwood or the Jacques le Marois and we can't do both, so we're just keeping all options open,” said Cheveley Park's managing director Chris Richardson of the Breeders' Cup winner. “We will see what happens and we're just going to keep our options open and try and get it right this time and know where we are going. But she seems in good form and she looks great.” Other notable entrants in the Nassau include G1 1000 Guineas heroine Elmalka (GB) (Kingman {GB}), G1 Prix de Diane victress Sparkling Plenty (Fr) (Kingman {GB}), and G1 Irish Oaks third Purple Lily (Ire) (Calyx {GB}).
