Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 12, 2019 Journalists Share Posted September 12, 2019 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. Friday’s Insights features a son of Grade I-winning Lady of Shamrock. 4.06 Saint-Cloud, Mdn, €27,000, 2yo, c/g, 7fTOXALIS (IRE) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) is a son of the GI American Oaks and GI Del Mar Oaks heroine Lady of Shamrock (Scat Daddy) who was acquired for $2 million by the Wertheimers at the 2013 Keeneland November Sale. Starting out for the Freddy Head stable, he meets a Godolphin-Fabre project in the similarly-unraced Algiers (Ire) (Shamardal), a son of the dual group scorer and multiple group 1-placed Antara (Ger) (Platini {Ger}). 2.20 Sandown, Mdn, £7,400, 2yo, 5f 10yTQASEEDA (GB) (Poet’s Voice {GB}) debuts for Isa Al-Khalifa and William Haggas and is a half-sister to the stable’s G3 Craven S. winner and G1 2000 Guineas third Skardu (GB) (Shamardal). Bidding to emulate him in winning at the first attempt, the April-foaled bay meets nine rivals over this stiff five.
