Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 31, 2024 Journalists Share Posted October 31, 2024 This year's Preis der Diana runner-up Spanish Eyes (Ger) has been added to Arqana's December Breeding Stock Sale and will be offered by Ecurie des Monceaux as lot 180 during the opening day of the sale on Saturday, December 7. Trained by Andreas Wohler for owner-breeders Gestut Karlshof, Spanish Eyes made a winning debut over nine furlongs at Hoppegarten in June. That remains her sole victory in five career starts, though she was beaten just a length behind Erle (Ger) (Reliable Man {GB}) in the Preis der Diana, before running another creditable race when finishing fourth in the G1 Grosser Preis von Baden. Spanish Eyes, who failed to find a buyer at €95,000 when offered at the Arqana October Yearling Sale, is one of five winners from as many runners out of the G1 Premio Lydia Tesio heroine Sortilege (Ire) (Tiger Hill {Ire}). The daughter of Zarak (Fr) is a full-sister to the G3 Premio Guido Berardelli winner Sirjan (Ger) and a half to Seductive (Ger) (Henrythenavigator), the dam of the dual Group 2 winner and G1 Preis von Europa runner-up Straight (Ger) (Zarak {Fr}). Sortilege is in turn out of Sahel (Ger) (Monsun {Ger})–a full-sister to the multiple Group 1 winner and sire Schiaparelli (Ger)–whose other offspring include the dam of this year's G1 Grand Prix de Paris scorer Sosie (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}).
