Observations on the European Racing Scene turns the spotlight on the best European races of the day, highlighting well-bred horses early in their careers, horses of note returning to action and young runners that achieved notable results in the sales ring. Monday's Observations features the first foal out of a Breeders' Cup heroine.
12.12 Lingfield, Novice, 2yo, f, 8f (AWT)
ESTISSA (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) is a key member of this fascinating cast as the first foal out of the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf and Prix Jean Romanet heroine Audarya (Wootton Bassett) and, as with that luminary, James Fanshawe is trusted with the handling of the Swinburns' homebred. She meets Kirsten Rausing's fellow newcomer Allaire (GB) (Study Of Man {Ire}), an Andrew Balding-trained half-sister to the St Leger hero Eldar Eldarov (Dubawi).
