Ghaiyyath Aiming for Harcourt

Godolphin’s GSW Ghaiyyath (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) has returned to Charlie Appleby’s Moulton Paddocks and is preparing for a crack in the Apr. 7 G2 Prix d’Harcourt at ParisLongchamp, Racing Post reported on Thursday. A winner of the G3 Autumn S. as a juvenile and ParisLongchamp’s G3 Prix du Prince d’Orange on Sept. 22 after almost a year on the sidelines, the 4-year-old has spent the winter in Dubai.

“Ghaiyyath looks fantastic and has done well over the winter out in Dubai,” Appleby told Racing Post. “He did a couple of bits of work out there and will work again here at the weekend. He’s a colt we’ve always liked but I didn’t want to start him back in a Group 1 straight away–the Prix d’Harcourt looks a good starting point as it’s usually run on soft ground, which he likes. The plan would be to use the d’Harcourt as a prep for the [Apr. 28 G1] Prix Ganay, and hopefully Ghaiyyath will be a major player in both races.”
