[Wandering Eyes]

Observations on the European Racing Scene turns the spotlight on the best European races of the day, highlighting well-pedigreed horses early in their careers, horses of note returning to action and young runners that achieved notable results in the sales ring. Saturday's Observations features Action (Ire), the Frankel (GB) half-brother to Lambourn (Ire) (Australia {GB}).

4.27 Galway, Mdn, €20,000, 2yo, 8f 73yT
ACTION (IRE) (Frankel {GB}) could hardly have shaped with more promise on debut at The Curragh last month and looks poised to build on that third placing behind fellow Ballydoyle runner New Zealand in a maiden the stable has performed well in. The third foal out of the G2 Queen Mary runner-up Gossamer Wings (Scat Daddy), the half-brother to the current Derby and Irish Derby hero Lambourn by Galileo's Australia is joined by the yard's newcomer Christmas Day (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), a 450,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 half-brother to the triple Grade III winner Missed The Cut. Meeting them is Imad Al Sagar's Spectical (Ire) (New Bay {GB}), a Jessica Harrington-trained half-brother to the G1 Cheveley Park Stakes heroine Lumiere (Shamardal) who cost €450,000 at Goffs Orby Book 1.
