Recommended Posts

  • Journalists

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. Wednesday’s Insights features a half-brother to GSW Gravitation (GB).

1.40 Salisbury, Novice, £7,900, 2yo, 8fT
GINISTRELLI (IRE) (Frankel {GB}) represents Bjorn Nielsen and Eastwind Racing Ltd and the Ed Walker stable on this racecourse bow, having cost 475,000gns at the Tattersalls October Book 1 Sale. A half-brother to the G3 Lillie Langtry S. winner Gravitation (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) from the immediate family of Fame and Glory (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}), the March-foaled bay has the credentials to go where Nielsen’s star stayer Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea the Stars {Ire}) has gone.

2.45 Salisbury, Novice, £7,900, 2yo, 6f 213yT
COPAL (GB) (Dark Angel {Ire}) is a half-brother to Juddmonte’s smart Monarchs Glen (GB) (Frankel {GB}) whose GIII Churchill Downs Distaff Turf Mile-winning dam Mirabilis (Lear Fan) was also third in the G1 Prix de la Foret. Ralph Beckett introduces the March-foaled bay against Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum’s Monsieur Noir (GB) (Shamardal), a 500,000gns TATOCT half-brother to Bonfire (GB) (Manduro {Ger}) and Joviality (GB) (Cape Cross {Ire}) who was third for the Roger Varian stable in a decent maiden at Doncaster last month.
