Juddmonte's Serenetta (Kingman), a half-sister to Arc heroine Bluestocking (Camelot) and this term's Sussex Stakes hero Qirat (Showcasing), backed up a debut third at Newmarket last month with a decisive victory in Wednesday's Racing TV Fillies' Novice Stakes at Kempton. The Ralph Beckett trainee justified odds-on favouritism and made most of the running to defeat Godolphin's Al Qaysiyya (Dubawi) by 1 1/2 lengths in the seven-furlong contest. "She had a lovely run with Hector [Crouch] the first day and she seems like a smart filly," said winning rider Colin Keane...

Saturday's G1 Qipco Champion Stakes will feature all the big guns, with Ombudsman (Night Of Thunder), Delacroix (Dubawi), Calandagan (Gleneagles) and Economics (Night Of Thunder) set for a memorable showdown. There will be 11 in the line-up for the feature, where the draw has not been kind to Ombudsman and Economics in nine and 10 respectively but has been to the race's most intriguing runner Almaqam (Lope De Vega) in stall one. There will be 16 lining up for the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, with Juddmonte and the Gosdens'...

Marcstown Ltd and Andrew Rosen's 550,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 graduate Sacred Ground (Kingman), a John and Thady Gosden-trained daughter of G1 Oaks and G1 Prix de Royallieu heroine Anapurna (Frankel), made a winning debut with a last-to-first effort in Monday's bettingsites.co.uk Betting Sites Fillies' Novice Stakes at Great Yarmouth. "It was a very pleasing debut and I thought there was plenty to like and plenty to build on," said William Buick. "She was quite professional and knew her job pretty well. She's a beautifully bred filly and is only...

Blackfin is bred on the same Kingman x More Than Ready cross as G1SW-Aus King Colorado (Aus). TJCIS PPS

Alain and Gerard Wertheimer's hitherto undefeated Green Spirit (Kingman) made a black-type breakthrough in last month's G3 Prix Six Perfections and provided her owner-breeders, trainer Christopher Head and jockey Maxime Guyon with a quickfire pattern-race double when dominating the closing stages of Thursday's G2 Prix d'Aumale at ParisLongchamp. "She is all class and always does the minimum," reflected Head. "I wasn't worried seeing her race in last as I think, ultimately, she will have to be ridden like that. It was really, or at least it looked like, a perfect...

Division (Kingman), an 800,000gns Tattersalls October Book 1 purchase, had shaped with promise when runner-up on debut at Windsor last month and started as the 4-6 favourite to build on that second time at Haydock. Always comfortable on the front end under James Doyle, the full-brother to the Lowther winner Celandine turned it on approaching the furlong pole to beat Night Mission (Dark Angel) by three lengths. The winner is the fourth foal out of Rockcliffe Stud's Listed Maggie Dickson Stakes winner and G3 Summer Stakes-placed Pepita, with the third...

Stepping up off a debut sixth behind Composing to win at Leopardstown last month, Philip Antonacci's Queen Of Hawaii (Kingman) continued the progression to take Saturday's G3 Newtownanner Stud Irish EBF Stakes at The Curragh. Sent off the 100-30 second favourite for the mile contest, registered as the Flame of Tara, the Joseph O'Brien-trained €250,000 Goffs Orby Book 1 purchase swamped Moments Of Joy (Justify) approaching the final furlong en route to a 2 1/4-length success. "She was very well bought by Philip Antonacci at Goffs and won her maiden...

   In this continuing series, TDN's Senior Racing Editor Steve Sherack catches up with the connections of promising maidens to keep on your radar. The gone-too-soon, two-time GI Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic heroine and three-time champion Royal Delta (Empire Maker) left behind only one foal, the winning filly Delta's Royalty (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). The future looks bright for the 8-year-old mare's second produce Noble Dynasty (c, 2, Kingman {GB}), who recorded a fantastic runner-up finish for Besilu Stables and Hall of Famer Bill Mott on debut going a mile over...

Leaving it late to extend her unbeaten record on Sunday, the Wertheimers' Green Spirit (Kingman) was in front where it mattered at the death in Deauville's G3 Sky Sports Racing Prix Six Perfections. Successful twice at Saint-Cloud in May and June, the Christopher Head-trained homebred needed every yard of the seven-furlong trip to reel in the Albany third Balantina (Ten Sovereigns) but was favoured by the bob to register a short-head success as the Aga Khan Studs TDN Rising Star Narissa (Siyouni) finished 1 1/2 lengths away in third. "She...

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. -- You knew this wouldn't last much longer. Chad Brown's Saratoga barn has too much young talent inside of it. Eventually, the trainer was going to find his way to the winner's circle with one of his juvenile runners. That day was Saturday when Brown's Capital Partner (GB) (Kingman {GB}) unleashed a furious closing kick to win the second race at the Spa, a $100,000 maiden special weight for 2-yeasr-olds. With jockey Flavien Prat doing the steering, Capital Partner flew down the stretch in the 1 1/16-mile...

Ralph Beckett enjoyed the perfect outcome in Wednesday's G3 HKJC World Pool Oak Tree Stakes when his two representatives, Saqqara Sands (Oasis Dream) and Tabiti (Kingman), could not be separated by technology in a photo finish to the seven-furlong contest at Goodwood. "My daughter was laughing at me because I was going 'go on Rossa, go on Ryan, go on Rossa'," revealed Becket. "I have definitely not been involved in a finish when two of my horses dead-heated before. William Easterby just told me his father [Tim] did it at...

Juddmonte homebred Publish (Kingman) was an unlucky-in-running debut second going seven furlongs at Sandown earlier in the month and returned over the same strip to shed maiden status with a bristling display in Thursday's Martin Densham & Peter Deal Memorial British EBF Maiden Stakes. The contest's honour roll includes Kameko in 2019 and Ruling Court last year. "They didn't go overly mad in front early, so I let him build into his gears and, once he knuckled down and got organised, he hit the line well," said winning rider James...
