Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 25, 2020 Journalists Share Posted September 25, 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. Today’s Insights features a half-sister to multiple Grade/Group 1 winner Iridessa (Ire) (Ruler of the World {Ire}). 12.50 Curragh, Mdn, €25,000, 2yo, 8fTSANTA BARBARA (IRE) (Camelot {GB}) debuts for Ballydoyle in this valuable Irish EBF Median Sires Series Maiden and is a half-sister to the four-times Group and Grade I-winning Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf heroine Iridessa (Ire) (Ruler of the World {Ire}). The March-foaled bay is the pick of Seamie Heffernan over the experienced stablemate Hector de Maris (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), a colt from the family of the great Urban Sea (Miswaki). 1.15 Newmarket, Mdn, £8,000, 2yo, f, 7fTQUILTED (GB) (Frankel {GB}) debuts for Khalid Abdullah and Roger Charlton, who combined with her full-sister Quadrilateral (GB) to win last year’s G1 Fillies’ Mile. The April-foaled bay is one of two Juddmonte newcomers of note alongside the Ralph Beckett-trained Vesela (GB) (Frankel {GB}), the latest daughter of Arabesque (GB) (Zafonic) and therefore a half-sister to the sires Showcasing (GB) and Camacho (GB).
