Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 18, 2024 Journalists Posted August 18, 2024 While the key action was taking place at Deauville on Sunday, Britain's Northern track Pontefract delivered something special in its opening six-furlong maiden as the Richard Fahey-trained newcomer Powerful Glory (Ire) (Cotai Glory {GB}–Wouldntitbelovely {Ire}, by Kodiac {GB}) lived up to his name to earn TDN Rising Star status. Bought for Sheikh Rashid Dalmook Al Maktoum by Blandford Bloodstock for £190,000 at the Goffs UK 2yo Breeze Up, the bay who was bred by the Marnanes tanked his way to the front after the first furlong with Oisin Orr unable to curtail his enthusiasm. Bounding clear from the home turn, the 10-11 favourite devoured the uphill rise to the line to win empahtically by 5 1/2 lengths from the Karl Burke-trained Sands Of Indi (Ire) (Sands Of Mali {Fr}), with another half length back to the third-placed Dash Dizzy (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), the Charlie Johnston-trained half-brother to Sioux Nation.
