THE MAKING OF A GLAMOUR FILLY FOUND IN SEARCH OF By Gai Waterhouse One-hundred-sixty-eight hours, 868 kilometres (540 miles), CHAMPION GLORY two States, two Group 1s, one filly--Global Glamour (Aus) (Star Witness {Aus}). A $A65,000 ($US46,000) purchase by bloodstock agent James Bester from Magic Millions 2015 has written her name into the history books. It was Elaine 'Legs' Lawlor and Anna Seitz who cleverly formed a group of high-profile women in racing to own this magnificent filly. Many of her lady owners have already cemented their positions as racing royalty, but Global Glamour's recent performances have given them the thrill of a lifetime that only horse racing can. Three years and three days before the 2016 G1 Flight S., Kevin and Tanith O'Brien and their son James, who manages the family property, Lauriston Thoroughbreds, were eagerly anticipating the arrival of Testa Rossa (Aus) mare Spectacula (Aus)'s fourth foal. While horse racing is fueled by hope and passion, no one could have ever envisaged the great heights that this Star Witness filly would reach.

Turning around a series of reversals when securing glory with real authority in the G1 Prix de l=Arc de Triomphe 13 days ago, the 4-year-old, who was arguably unlucky when runner-up in this last year, may only just be coming to herself. Trainer Aidan O=Brien is having an unusual season where the fillies are clear above the colts in his stable, and he is keen to place Found on a pedestal. AWe all knew a long time ago that there=s something different about her,@ he explained. AShe takes her races so well. The Arc was always her target. All the other races were on the way to the Arc. We did it last year and she=s been fine since France. It=s the way she is. She=s incredible, really, the most genuine horse I=ve ever seen. She empties the tank every time. The problem is not to let her empty too quick--she goes right to the bottom of herself.@ One of several who have proven more than a match for Found during her many tough encounters is Almanzor (Fr) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) and he is in attendance once again with the burden of favouritism on his shoulders. cont. p2 TDN EUROPE/INTERNATIONAL • PAGE 2 OF 16 • THETDN.COM SATURDAY • 15 OCTOBER, 2016
