Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 18, 2020 Journalists Share Posted July 18, 2020 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. Sunday’s Insights features a full-sister to Classic heroine Misty For Me (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). 1.40 Newbury, £6,400, 2yo, c/g, 6fTMUJBAR (GB) (Muhaarar {GB}) debuts for Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum and Charlie Hills with more than an outside chance that he could be another sprinting star for the combination who enjoyed so many red-letter days with his sire. A half-brother to the G1 Commonwealth Cup hero Eqtidaar (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) and to the G2 Hungerford S. scorer Massaat (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}), the March-foaled bay meets nine rivals including the Richard Hannon-trained Pure Dreamer (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), a granddaughter of the G1 Irish and Yorkshire Oaks heroine Pure Grain (GB) (Polish Precedent) who sports the famed Barnett silks. 2.00 Curragh, Mdn, €16,500, 2yo, f, 7fTAPRIL SHOWERS (IRE) (Galileo {Ire}) represents the Donnacha O’Brien stable and is a full-sister to the four-times Group 1 winner and Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Misty For Me (Ire) who is now the dam of the high-class War Front duo U S Navy Flag and Roly Poly. Carrying Susan Magnier’s colours, the March-foaled bay meets nine rivals including Ballydoyle’s Snowfall (Ire) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) , the relative of Found (Ire) who was unlucky here last month.
