   Enchanting Skies (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), who was the BBAGS €500,000 sale topper in 2016, was well away to stalk the pace in second after the initial strides of this unveiling. Nudged along to loom large in early straight, the 22-1 chance cruised to the fore approaching the final furlong and kept on strongly under minimal coaxing thereafter to easily best My Sister Nat (Fr) (Acclamation {GB}), herself a half-sister to recent GI Jenny Wiley S. heroine Sistercharlie (Ire) (Myboycharlie {Ire}), by 3/4 of a length. She is the latest foal and eighth scorer produced by Listed Kolner Fruhjahrs Stuten-Preis placegetter Estefania (Ger) (Acatenango {Ger}), and is a half-sister to G1 Preis von Europa hero Empoli (Ger) (Halling), G3 Herzog von Ratibor-Rennen third Ebeltoft (Ire) (Lawman {Fr}) and the dual stakes-placed Eigelstein (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}). Her second dam Eirehill (Ire) (Danehill) is a winning half-sister to MG1SW multiple German and Italian highweight Elle Danzig (Ger) (Roi Danzig), herself the dam of seven stakes performers headed by MGSW G1 Preis der Diana runner-up Elle Shadow (Ire) (Shamardal). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, €12,500.
