“We’re Delighted To Have Her” – Beckett To Train Amo’s 4.4 Million Frankel Filly

[Wandering Eyes]

Ralph Beckett has been selected by Amo Racing to train the 4.4 million gns Frankel (GB) filly who topped the opening Book 1 session of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale, as reported by the Nick Luck Daily podcast. 

Fresh from sending out the Juddmonte-owned Bluestocking (GB) (Camelot {GB}) to win the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe on Sunday, Beckett described himself as delighted to be taking charge of the Book 1 showstopper on behalf of Kia Joorabchian's Amo Racing operation.

He said, “She's a lovely filly and we're delighted to have her. Kia and I know each other pretty well at this stage and we are looking forward to training this filly on behalf of him.”

Offered by breeders Newsells Park Stud, the Frankel filly is the second foal out of the G2 Duke Of Cambridge Stakes winner Aljazzi (GB) (Shamardal) who won five of her 16 starts for Marco Botti, with her other victories including the G3 Atalanta Stakes.

She spearheaded a £12.6m spending spree by Joorabchian alongside various other partners. Indeed, it is not the first big-money Amo-owned purchase to have joined Beckett's ranks, with the trainer also managing the career of Angelo Buonarroti (Justify), who was bought by Alex Elliott on behalf of the operation for €1 million at the Arqana Breeze-Up Sale in May.
