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. Today’s Observations features a Ballydoyle seven-figure yearling purchase.

1.50 Curragh, Mdn, €17,500, 2yo, f, 6fT
FANTASY (IRE) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) makes her debut for Ballydoyle two weeks after her intended introduction on more suitable ground. The daughter of Cassandra Go (Ire) (Indian Ridge {Ire}), a 1.6-million gns TATOCT graduate and half-sister to the MG1SW Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Halfway To Heaven (Ire) (Pivotal {GB}), is passed over by Ryan Moore in favour of Just Wonderful (Dansili {GB}), a daughter of the stable’s impressive G2 Rockfel S. scorer Wading (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}).

3.10 Goodwood, Mdn, £10,400, 2yo, f, 6fT
ZALPA (More Than Ready) debuts for Godolphin and Charlie Appleby over the same course and distance that stablemate Masar (Ire) (New Approach {Ire}) made a successful debut at this time last year. A 500,000gns purchase at the Tattersalls Craven Breeze-up last month, the bay is a half-sister to the GSW Second City (Distorted Humor), whose dam Sis City (Slew City Slew) took the 2005 GI Ashland S. by 10 1/2 lengths.
