QUADRILLION (GB) (Kingman {GB}) is the second foal out of Juddmonte's G1 Fillies' Mile heroine Quadrilateral (Frankel) and a key member of Harry Charlton's two-year-old crew. From the Hasili dynasty, the homebred encounters another potentially classy Kingman in Prince Faisal's Celestra (Fr), one of the Gosdens' armada who has the benefit of experience having been runner-up at Haydock on debut.
3.00 Newbury, Novice, £12,000, 2yo, 7fT
MORBEH (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) is one of the eye-catchers in a fascinating contest, being Shadwell's first foal out of their Group 3 winner and G1 Prix Vermeille runner-up Raabihah (Sea The Stars). Roger Varian introduces the newcomer in the race won in recent times by Chaldean, Reach For The Moon and Bayside Boy, with Godolphin's Ruler Of Time (Not This Time) another notable as a $700,000 Keeneland September purchase whose family features Monceaux Stable's bigwig Naissance Royale.
