Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 6, 2022 Journalists Posted May 6, 2022 There was enough intrigue and substance in Nottingham's Visit racingtv.com Novice S. on Friday to make it a mini-Derby trial and enough in the performance of the Simon and Ed Crisford-trained West Wind Blows (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}) to earn TDN Rising Star status. Carrying a seven-pound penalty for his debut score over this 10-furlong trip on Newcastle's Tapeta after Christmas, Abdulla Al Mansoori's son of the G1 Prix de Diane heroine West Wind (GB) (Machiavellian) from the family of Coroebus (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) soon wrested control on the front end from Return To Dubai (Ire) (Ribchester {Ire}) under forcing tactics from Jack Mitchell. Powerful throughout, the hooded bay who started at 17-2 lugged towards the rail when the result was already settled inside the final furlong but hit the line strong in a smart time to record a five-length success from that Saeed bin Suroor trainee. There was another 1 3/4-length margin back to the Gosdens' Franz Strauss (GB) (Golden Horn {GB}) in third, with that G3 Sandown Classic Trial fourth getting seven pounds from the impressive winner.
