Two more Frankel firsters for Wednesday | Juddmonte

7.00 Sandown, Mdn, £6,000, 2yo, 7f 16yT

MONARCHS GLEN (GB) (Frankel (GB)">Frankel {GB}) is the first Juddmonte homebred colt by the sire to race, with John Gosden charged with the son of the 2006 GIII Churchill Downs Distaff Turf Mile winner Mirabilis (Lear Fan), who in turn is a half to the 2003 G1 Prix de Diane and G1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp heroine Nebraska Tornado (Storm Cat). Among the other newcomers is the Niarchos Family's Elucidation (Ire) (Oasis Dream {GB}), a Sir Michael Stoute-trained colt whose dam is a half to the Epsom Derby hero Kris Kin (Kris S.).

7.50 Leicester, Mdn, £7,000, 2yo, 6fT

SENATOR (GB) (Frankel (GB)">Frankel {GB}) is yet another to make his racecourse bow for the peerless performer, this time for Cheveley Park Stud and Richard Fahey. Descended from the Group 1 mares Red Bloom (GB) (Selkirk) and Red Camellia (GB) (Polar Falcon), the chestnut homebred encounters Godolphin's similarly unraced Winning Return (Ire) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}), a Saeed bin Suroor-trained filly whose group-winning dam is a half to the high achiever Cape Cross (Ire).
