  • Don't Dream It's Over
    TUESDAY, 22 OCTOBER 2019 THE WEEKLY WRAP: DON'T YEARLING ACTION RETURNS TO DEAUVILLE FOR ARQANA OCTOBER By Emma Berry DREAM IT'S OVER DEAUVILLE, France-There is little let-up in the packed European sales calendar. Tattersalls brought down the shutters on its October marathon on Saturday afternoon but by Monday morning Goffs was back in action with its Autumn Sale and today (Tuesday) sees the start of the four-day Arqana October Sale. This understudy to the flamboyant August yearling sale in Deauville has traditionally been conducted in two parts but this year it has a distinct grading system for each day, with the seemingly strongest set of yearlings offered in the opening session. The sale's clash with a three-day race meeting in the town means that the first two days of trade will not begin until 3 p.m. That may be just as well for those looking at yearlings on Monday who had to spend plenty of time dodging heavy seaside showers. Cont. p5 IN TDN AMERICA TODAY Kameko (left), will bid to reverse the Royal Lodge form with Royal Dornoch in the G1 Vertem Futurity Trophy. | Racing Post FASIG-TIPTON KY OCTOBER BEGAN MONDAY The Fasig-Tipton Kentucky October Yearlings Sale began in Lexington, KY on Monday. Brian DiDonato has the full scoop. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN America. By Emma Berry We are in that strange week of the year after Champions Day, with much tweeting about the end of the Flat season but with at least one highly informative juvenile race yet to be run.

  • Download Pedigree Notes
    Magna Grecia Magna Grecia, a Group 1 winner at two and three years, is by top class sire of sires, Invincible Spirit. Magna Grecia carries Sadler’s Wells and Lt Stevens via his dam, both members of the GOODY TWO SHOES family. Mares carrying individuals such as FAIRY KING (sire of ENCOSTA DE LAGO, FALBRAV, ADVENTUROUS, REVOQUE, HELISSIO, SHINKO KING and VICTORY NOTE), NUREYEV, NORTHERN METEOR and sons, LORENZACCIO, THATCH (and son THATCHING), TATE GALLERY, GEIGER COUNTER, YEATS, TOPSIDER, REFORM and OPEN DAY add to this strength. Sadler’s Wells’ son Galileo, damsire of Magna Grecia, is a half-brother to SEA THE STARS and closely related to KING’S BEST, whose daughters would appeal for Magna Grecia. Magna Grecia is a direct descendant of SELENE, who is also represented by Hyperion (8 lines) and Pharamond (3 lines) throughout his pedigree. Mares carrying fellow family members SIR TRISTRAM, MOSSBOROUGH, STAR WAY and OUR MAIZCAY will add to this well known family. SIR TRISTRAM is most easily sourced via his descendants LONHRO, ZABEEL, SAVABEEL, MARAUDING, OCTAGONAL, PIERRO, GROSVENOR, K AAPSTAD, TIERCE, MILITARY PLUME and IMPERIAL PRINCE. ZABEEL also carries Nureyev, so has additional attraction (see above paragraph). This also applies to Star Way, who is damsire of ENCOSTA DE LAGO, a son of Fairy King (see above). FRIZETTE family members Lomond, Mr Prospector and Djeddah (twice) can be reinforced by the inclusion of horses such as SEATTLE SLEW (a half-brother to Lomond), ARTIE SCHILLER, SING SING, BALDRIC II, ROAN ROCKET, TWENTY FOUR KARAT, GREGORIAN, FERDINAND, JET PILOT, MUKADDAMAH, and OMAN.

Fabre sees it that way and said, AObviously I was very pleased to see Magna Grecia win as he did last week. He=s in good shape. The ground will probably be a bit soft for him, but he will handle it--most Kingman=s handle it quite well.
