Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 12, 2018 Journalists Share Posted April 12, 2018 G K Chesterton (Ire) (Poet’s Voice {GB}), a three-time winner from 12 runs for Godolphin and trainer Charlie Appleby, fetched a final bid of AED800,000 (£153,119/€176,726/US$217,835) to top Tuesday’s Emirates Racing Authority’s Racing in Dubai Sale in the saddling enclosure at Meydan Racecourse. The 5-year-old gelding, one of 12 horses signed for by trainer Doug Watson at the event, is a son of French Group 3 winner Neptune’s Bride (Bering {GB}), the dam of UAE SP Submariner (Singspiel {Ire}) as well as Sea Chariot (Seeking the Gold), a stakes-placed millionaire in Japan. A handicap winner last season at Newmarket in May and during the Derby meeting at Epsom, G K Chesterton was unplaced in a pair of starts at this year’s Dubai World Cup Carnival. With four horses withdrawn from the sale, a total of 39 horses were reported as sold for AED7,180,000. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
