COOLMORE: A GOOD DAY AT THE OFFICE The Coolmore legions had good reason to be satisfied with the results from Ascot=s opening day yesterday: they had bought into Canford Cliffs (Tagula) at the end of last year, which looked a pretty smart move after he stopped the 6-year-old wonder mare Goldikova (Anabaa) from notching her 14th Group 1/Grade I win in the meet=s opening race--the G1 Queen Anne S.--run over Ascot=s straight mile. Then Frankel, by Coolmore=s world number one, Galileo, scraped home in the one- mile G1 St James=s Palace S., run on the round course, while Coolmore=s Zoffany, by the Juddmonte stallion Dansili, upgraded his stallion prospects by running a bang-up second. Then, to finish off the day, their investment in a second Juddmonte stallion paid off when Power (Oasis Dream) finished strongly to give Aidan O=Brien his sixth win in the G2 Coventry S. All in all, a pretty satisfactory opening day; though the weight of expectation which Frankel carried yesterday is transferred today to Coolmore=s So You Think (High Chaparral), as short as 2-5 last night to win today=s G1 Prince of Wales=s S. It was also a good day for Prince Khalid Abdullah=s Juddmonte operation. Frankel may only have scraped home in the St James=s Palace S., but his record now reads seven wins from seven starts, and his master trainer--the newly knighted (and slightly embarrassed, as usual) Sir Henry Cecil--will now go off and think about what he wants to ask his colt to do next. Henry mentioned the G1 Juddmonte International (sponsored by the owner) over an extended 10 furlongs at York, even as the wise guys were again trying to talk him into shortening him up to six furlongs. There=s a reason he=s been champion trainer nine times, and it=s not because he listens to the riders in the stands. Besides the fact a runner by their own stallion, Dansili, gave Frankel an almighty scare, Juddmonte could also be pleased that their stallion Oasis Dream--arguably the number two sire in Europe now behind only Galileo--had two winners on opening day: Prohibit in the G1 King=s Stand S. over five furlongs; and Power in the G2 Coventry, always the first really important 2-year-old race of the year.
