Godolphin's CUALIFICAR (GB) (Lope De Vega {Ire}), is an Andre Fabre-trained son of G1 Oaks heroine Qualify (Ire) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) and thus kin to this year's G3 Jebel Ali Mile victor Swing Vote (GB) (Shamardal). Qualify, who was a 1.6-million guineas purchase at the 2015 Tattersalls December sale, is scheduled to go under the hammer at this month's Goffs November sale.
