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 Insights features a son of the high-class Great Heavens (GB) (Galileo {Ire}).

1.30 Haydock, Novice, £15,000, 3yo, 11f 175yT
MAKE MY DAY (IRE) (Galileo {Ire}) debuts in the John and Tanya Gunther silks which British racegoers are now familiar with thanks to the exploits of Without Parole (GB) (Frankel {GB}) last term. John Gosden introduces the bay, whose dam is an unraced full-sister to Midday (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), and he faces the Rothschild colour-bearer and Wolverhampton debut winner Great Bear (GB) (Dansili {GB}), a Roger Charlton-trained son of the high-class Great Heavens (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) who was successful in the G1 Irish Oaks after taking this track’s G2 Lancashire Oaks in 2012.

6.15 Doncaster, Mdn, £8,550, 3yo/up, 7f 6yT
ALKARAAMA (War Front}) debuts for Shadwell and Sir Michael Stoute 10 days after his 2-year-old full-brother King Neptune made a winning debut for Ballydoyle. The $600,000 KEENOV foal purchase is also a full-sibling to the operation’s smart Faydhan who made such an impact on his racecourse debut at Haydock five years ago.
