Sister To Kameko Gets Her Chance At Doncaster

[Wandering Eyes]

Observations on the European Racing Scene turns the spotlight on the best European races of the day, highlighting well-bred horses early in their careers, horses of note returning to action and young runners that achieved notable results in the sales ring. Friday's Observations features a full-sister to Kameko.

KINGSCLERE (Kitten's Joy), who was due to make her debut at the abandoned Salisbury fixture last week, is instead rolled out on Doncaster's Town Moor with much expectation on her shoulders. She is a homebred full-sister to Qatar Racing's G1 2,000 Guineas and G1 Futurity Trophy-winning sire Kameko who sports the name of trainer Andrew Balding's historic stable. Interestingly, Nurlan Bizakov's similarly unraced Gulya (Ire) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}) is here having also been set to run at Salisbury and the Roger Varian trainee is out of a full-sister to the G1 Irish 2,000 Guineas-winning sire Romanised (Ire).

SANDTRAP (IRE) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) is a significant debutante for Valmont and Ballylinch Stud, being a full-sister to last month's GI Fourstardave Handicap hero Carl Spackler (Ire). Bought for 450,000gns at Tattersalls October Book 1, the Ralph Beckett trainee encounters six rivals and is slated as the current favourite.
