Observations on the European Racing Scene for Monday, Sept. 4

TAKE ME WITH YOU (Scat Daddy) reappears after a third to Different League (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}) and Alpha Centauri (Ire) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}) in the G3 Albany S. at Royal Ascot, where she “won” the race on the stand's side only to lose out overall to those far-side runners. Phoenix Thoroughbred Limited's Jeremy Noseda-trained $800,000 breezer from the family of Wildcat Heir faces 10 rivals who should be overmatched if she reproduces her latest effort.

ROYAL LINE (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) was a late scratching from his intended debut in HH Sheikha Al Jalila Racing's maroon-and-white silks over one mile at Newmarket last month. The homebred chestnut is a son of 2000 G1 Epsom Oaks and G1 Irish Oaks placegetter Melikah (Ire) (Lammtarra), herself a product of storied blue hen Urban Sea (Miswaki), and is kin to a trio black-type winners headed by 2012 G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe third Masterstroke (Monsun {Ger}). He is opposed by six in this belated unveiling for the John Gosden barn.
