Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 1 hour ago Journalists Posted 1 hour ago Godolphin and Charlie Appleby have dominated Kempton's Unibet Supports Safer Gambling Maiden Stakes in recent years, annexing recent renewals with elite-level winners Opera Ballo (Ghaiyyath), Notable Speech (Dubawi) and Measured Time (Frankel). The axis unleashed another potential heavyweight on Wednesday evening as 750,000gns Tattersalls Book 1 yearling Palladas (Lope De Vega) delivered a power-packed debut display to attain 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' status in the one-mile contest. Palladas settled into a smooth rhythm and lobbed along in sixth after an alert getaway. Cruising forward once into the home straight, the 6-5 favourite powered to the front passing the furlong marker and thundered clear in the latter stages to easily outclass Al Azd (Dubawi) by an impressive 2 3/4 lengths. Palladas is the fourth of five foals and third scorer from as many runners produced by Listed River Eden Stakes third Isabella (Galileo), herself a daughter of Listed Blenheim Stakes victrix Song Of My Heart (Footstepsinthesand). Song Of My Heart is also the dam of G3 Musidora Stakes third Pandora (Galileo) and the dual stakes-placed Allegio (Galileo). The March-foaled chestnut is a half-brother to GIII La Jolla Handicap victor and GII Del Mar Derby runner-up Maltese Falcon (Caravaggio) and the unraced two-year-old colt Helvellyn (Pinatubo). 2026 2025 2024 2203 2022 2021 Palladas, a 750,000gns son of Lope De Vega, continues stunning run of Charlie Appleby in this Kempton maiden.@godolphin pic.twitter.com/GCB2Je2ybz — Racing TV (@RacingTV) January 28, 2026 The post Godolphin’s Palladas Powers to TDN Rising Stardom at Kempton appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
