Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 26 Journalists Share Posted July 26 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. Saturday's Observations features a 1.5-million half to crack sprinter Battaash (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}). 13.15 Ascot, Mdn, £50,000, 2yo, c/g, 6fT AL MISBAR (IRE) (Blue Point {Ire}) is a key member of the “Crocker Bulteel” Maiden that opens the King George card, being Godolphin's 1.5million gns Tattersalls October Book 1 half-brother to the stellar sprinter Battaash (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) and his dual Group 3-winning and G1 Middle Park Stakes and G1 Prix Morny-placed full-brother The Antarctic (Ire). His trainer Charlie Appleby will have taken note of the fact that Richard Hannon has won six of the last nine runnings of this and that the East Everleigh handler puts forward Robert Barnett's homebred Our Terms (GB) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), a son of the G2 Queen Mary Stakes and G2 Lowther Stakes winner Best Terms (GB) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}) who was fourth behind TDN Rising Star Field Of Gold (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) at Newmarket's July Festival.
