One of the top minors of the previous term, Teme Valley and Ballylinch Stud’s Boy by the Bay (Ire) (New Bay {GB}) took until Saturday to put it all together as a 3-year-old and chose the big stage to do so in Ascot’s G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. He has now won tickets attend GI Breeders’ Cup Mile at Keeneland in November, if flights want to travel.
Anchored in the early rear by Tom Marquand after a late respite, the 33-1 shooter achieved confidence-boosting success in Sandown’s Listed Fortune S. September 14 produced a surge to overwhelming the longtime leader Jadoomi (Fr) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}) inside the last 50 yards.
Moving forward with real momentum at the ropes, the bay is coached by Roger Varian, who has been galvanized by flashing lights with 1 1/4 lengths to spend there in the fight. Modern games (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), with Jadoomi denying the runner-up spot because of his short head. In the case of 11-10 favorites Inspiring (GB) (Frankel {GB}), the writing on the wall has a long way to go as she fumbles after blowing off the first part and ranks sixth.
“We think he’s a bubbly outsider – he needs to be massively promoted but he’s been in very good form in his mid-teens,” Varian said. “We had high hopes for him this season, but he hasn’t been on a solid footing in the summer and the owners and owners of Ballylinch Stud have been very patient with him. He showed a great leg spin there and I hope he is the dark horse that will still be with us next year.”
Bayside Boy has appeared in his 2-year-old battles being defeated more often than not, but even in his second in Newbury’s Listed Washington Singer S. and his third in G1 Dewhurst S. and the G1 Vertem Futurity Trophy that he showed Classic potential. Reach For the Moon Dam (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) in the middle of G2 Champagne S.
Draw 14/15 at G1 Poule d’Essai des Poulains, in which he beat only two opponents at home at ParisLongchamp on 15 May, he finished seventh in G1 St James’s Palace S. at Royal Ascot on 14 May 6 but was defeated by less than two lengths and threatened briefly on a surface too fast. If they can defend, his fourth time as a favorite for G3 Thoroughbred S. Goodwood’s July 29 is less but once again the ground turns against him and a follow-up cooler and the wearing a headgear did the magic when he was back on the front lines from the day Balmoral H. runner-up Sweet Believer (Ire) (Make Believe {GB}) last time.
If not as bad as Inspiral, who walks out of the stall, Bayside Boy missed a beat from the start and with Jadoomi setting a slow tempo initially, he’s left with only the proverbial mountain to climb. While his noticeably animated Frankie to the left is getting closer to the two, Marquand is merely coaxing his beast closer and Bayside Boy is building confidence with every stride as he is about to close a gap that is still quite large.
With such an advantage early on, Jadoomi and Modern Games could have dominated but the eventual winner is a place or two on this surface and perhaps in terms of how the races unfold is impressive. most of the day.
Marquand summed it up succinctly. “He showed a pretty exceptional foot swing,” he said of the 11-year-old to win this in the last 15 runs. “From the two I would never go there and he really likes to chase them – he takes the boat home.”
Charlie Appleby, who is doing this on his way to Breeders’ Cup Mile with Modern Games, is inclined to blame the easy defeat. “Will just said he was as tough as teak, but unfortunately he couldn’t get his feet off the ground,” he commented. “He said that if the winner comes close to us, it will be a different race. This is his first encounter with such soft ground, but he is running a very reliable race and he will go to the Breeders’ Cup now. As we know, in Keeneland he can get the same conditions. “
Ed Crisford said of Jadoomi, “We are absolutely delighted with him. It could be a tough place to lead, but he darted off the counter and didn’t have any pace for James [Doyle] says he is happy ahead. Really, the winner came out of nowhere, but we ran an intense race and couldn’t be happier. I think Keeneland would be the obvious place to go – to a bend that might just play to his strengths and be the next step. He wants to cut in the ground, that’s the key. He had to find five or six pounds to compete with the top two in the bet and he has certainly improved again. He’s just a 4-year-old who raced lightly and there’s no reason he shouldn’t improve again. “
The debacle of G1 Coronation S. and G1 Prix Jacques Le Marois by Cheveley Park Stud’s Inspiral heroine was a surprise, but there was an early warning sign of her stall behavior at the Royal meeting in here and a frustrated Dettori looking for a philosophical treble. “The gate opened and she didn’t want to come out – it was one of those cigar smoking moments,” he said. “The whole field has gone and I find myself ultimately a filth in need of protection. They went slow, I tried to get into the race, but the race was over from the beginning. I don’t know why she doesn’t want to come out, this is her first time doing it. She has won two Group 1 awards and horses are not machines and sometimes they underperform. That left a sour taste.”
Genealogical Notes
The smash of the Bayside Boy, the scorer in the Prix Occitanie Alava (Ire) (Anabaa), was also responsible for the four-time scorer in the Ranger (Ire) race (Lawman {Fr}), who enjoyed a great deal yard and caught two renewals of G2 Huxley S. Alava 10 long-haired, who also produced Home Cummins (Ire) (Rip Van Winkle {Ire}) are listed, outside the trio Cerita (Ire) ( Wolfhound) is listed with half-siblings including G3 Prix de Flore Tamise (Time For a Change) scorer and GII La Canada S. and GII El Encino S. runner-up Luthier’s Launch (Relaunch).
