Debut For Godolphin’s Craven Breeze-Up Sensation Silent Applause

[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. Thursday's Observations features the second highest priced juvenile from the Tattersalls Craven Breeze-Up Sale earlier this spring.

3.55 Yarmouth, Novice, £40,000, 2yo, 6f 3yT
SILENT APPLAUSE (IRE) (Acclamation {GB}) was the second-highest-priced lot at last month's Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale when falling to Godolphin at 1.4million gns. Charlie Appleby introduces him in a race he won 12 months ago, with Wathnan Racing's fellow newcomer Postmodern (Ire) (Too Darn Hot {GB}) in opposition as a Hamad Al Jehani-trained half-brother to Muhaarar's GII Pegasus World Cup Filly and Mare Turf Invitational Stakes winner Be Your Best.

 

14.47 Haydock, Novice, £11,000, 2yo, 6fT
MAXIMIZED (GB) (Mehmas {Ire}) was another big deal at last month's Breeze-Ups, selling to Godolphin for £720,000 as the second-highest-priced juvenile at the Goffs UK auction. A half-brother to the Listed scorer and Group 3-placed Benefit and grandson of the G1 Cheveley Park Stakes heroine Hooray, he is passed over by William Buick for Charlie Appleby's other newcomer, the homebred Time To Turn (GB) (Dark Angel {Ire}) who hails from the family of Ivawood.
