Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 16, 2023 Journalists Posted January 16, 2023 The first foal by European Champion 2-year-old and World Champion 3-year-old St Mark's Basilica (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) was born at Kiltinan Stud in Fethard, Co Tipperary, Ireland on Jan. 9. The colt is out of Vital Force (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) and owned by the John Ferguson-headed Natalma Bloodstock. Vital Force is a half-sister to Godolphin's G2 Coventry S. winner Buratino (Ire) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}) and from the immediate family of Danehill Dancer. “He's a good first foal with a good frame to fill into and a confident temperament,” Kiltinan manager Donna Vowles said. St Mark's Basilica won six of nine starts and earned £2,196,080. He is a five-time group 1 winner, including the Irish Champion S., Emirates Poule d'Essai des Poulains and Coral Eclipse S. He stands at Coolmore Stud in Ireland for a fee of €65,000.
