+CREATE A DREAM (f, 2, Oasis Dream {GB}–Anabaa's Creation {Ire} {SW & G1SP-Fr, GISP-US, $330,826}, by Anabaa), who was withdrawn by Wesley Ward from Doncaster's curtain raiser for the juveniles, the “Brocklesby”, earlier this month due to the soft conditions, was true to type for one of the trainer's GB runners and headed straight for the lead. Although her advantage was being whittled late on by The Last Lion (Ire) (Choisir {Aus}), the 5-1 shot had already done enough and hit the line with a neck to spare from that 8-15 favourite who was subsequently demoted behind Deningy (GB) (Sepoy {Aus}) for causing interference to that unlucky rival. “She was very good and Wesley's been very high on her from day one,” jockey Jose Valdivia Jr commented on his initial visit to Ascot. “She was very straightforward and when I called on her from the furlong pole she found plenty. I think she will improve off this race.” Out of the 2009 GI Clement L Hirsch S. runner-up and G1 Prix Saint-Alary third, the winner emanates from a family with sound credentials in North America with the likes of Fast Cure and Leonnatus Anteas (Stormy Atlantic) further boosting its profile. Anabaa's Creation foaled a Tapit colt this year and is in foal to Super Saver. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $12,708. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
