Flatter Colt Stays Perfect In Dubai

[Wandering Eyes]

Panadol was an eye-catching 7 3/4-length debut winner going a mile at Meydan on a non-carnival card on Feb. 13, and he employed the same tactics in his second start and stakes debut on Saturday by going to the lead and never looking back.

Breaking on terms from the extreme outside barrier, Mickael Barzalona had guided Panadol to the lead by the time they passed under the wire the first time. The advantage down the backstretch was three-quarters of a length while Speight'spercomete (Speightstown) perched three-wide. The stalkers began to close in approaching the quarter pole and the Uruguayan invader El Patriota (Uru) (Ecologo {Arg}) began to make up ground, but none of them proved any match for Panadol, who kicked two lengths clear at the top of the lane. Speight'spercomete bravely saw off the challenge of El Patriota to secure runners-up honours, but Panadol was ultimately three-quarters of a length the best.

Panadol is out of the winning Dixieland Band mare Arradoul, and he becomes her third stakes horse and first stakes winner, she having already produced the listed-placed Backwood Bay (Girolamo) and Permanent Vacation (Elusive Quality). Arradoul is a half-sister to the two-time listed winner and multiple group-placed Ender's Sister (A.P. Indy), who produced the GI Forego S. and GI Albert G. Vanderbilt H. winner A.P. Indian (Indian Charlie), as well as the GII Indiana Derby victor Tiz Shea D (Tiznow). Arradoul and Ender's Sister are also siblings to Ender's Shadow (A.P. Indy), a listed winner and Grade III-placed. Arradoul has a 2-year-old filly by Alpha named Alarra, and was bred to Runhappy and Audible in the past two seasons.
