Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 8, 2019 Journalists Share Posted March 8, 2019 Sent off the 17-10 favourite on this debut, Shadwell’s Motamarris (Ire) (Le Havre {Ire}) quickly imposed himself at the head of the affairs in this newcomers’ affair at Chantilly. Always travelling well within himself, the homebred bay had killed the contest halfway up the straight and hit the line with purpose seven lengths ahead of Youmna (Fr) (French Fifteen {Fr}). The listed-placed dam’s first foal was the useful Riqa (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), who managed three seconds at that level before producing this stable’s G3 Prix de Cabourg, G3 Prix de Meautry and G3 Prix du Petit Couvert scorer Tantheem (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}). Freddy Head knows this family well, having handled most of the immediate relatives and masterminded the career of the dam’s half-brother Tamayuz (GB) (Nayef), hero of the G1 Prix Jacques Le Marois and G1 Prix Jean Prat. The fourth dam is Allegretta (GB) (Lombard {Ger}), dam of the incomparable megamare Urban Sea (Miswaki). Thamarat, who also threw the listed-placed filly Saraaba (Ire) (New Approach {Ire}), has a 2-year-old colt by Invincible Spirit (Ire) named Sharib (GB). 3rd-Chantilly, €25,000, Debutantes, 3-8, 3yo, c/g, 9 1/2f (AWT), 1:57.07, st.MOTAMARRIS (IRE) (c, 3, Le Havre {Ire}–Thamarat {GB} {SP-Fr}, by Anabaa) Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, €12,500.
