Half-Sister To Group 1 Trio Set For Newcastle Debut

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. Wednesday's Observations features a half-sister to a Group 1 trio.

16.30 Newcastle, £6,300, Nov, 2yo, 8f 5y (AWT)
Watership Down Stud's hitherto unraced FANCIULLA DEL WEST (GB) (Lope Y Fernandez {Ire}) is kin to six black-type performers headed by Group 1 winners Awelmarduk (Ire) (Almutawakel {GB}), Jakkalberry (Ire) (Storming Home {GB}) and Crackerjack King (Ire) (Shamardal). The Ed Walker trainee is opposed by 15 in this low-key debut.
