Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 25, 2018 Journalists Share Posted July 25, 2018 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 some high-profile sales purchases by Godolphin and Coolmore. 1.50 Sandown, Mdn, £8,000, 2yo, 7fTBEATBOXER (Scat Daddy) was a $650,000 KEESEP buy for Godolphin, with John Gosden training the February-foaled bay for Princess Haya of Jordan. From the family of the GIII Turfway Breeders’ Cup S. winner Miss Fortunate (Deputy Minister) and her GIII Dallas Turf Cup-winning full-brother Trial By Jury, he tackles nine rivals on this debut. 6.00 Leopardstown, Mdn, €10,780, 2yo, 8fTEMINENCE (IRE) (Sea the Stars {Ire}) was a 425,000gns TATOCT purchase by Coolmore, a rare one by the sire, but he obviously had all the right material at the sales. Out of a half to the stayers Shaneshill (Ire) (King’s Theatre {Ire}) and Far Cry (Ire) (Pharly {Fr}), he will need a thorough test in time.
