I just watched a super nice Godolphin 2yo in England win his debut a month ago. He opened up 7 in the lane before being geared down. The horse he put away to open up by 7 ended up closing the cap to 3-4.
He's by Shamardal and his second dam is Urban Sea.
Oh yeah, the name is Burj Nahar.
For those that don't remember that sire, Shamardal, he won 6 of his 7 starts. His lone loss came on his one dirt try in Dubai. Half of those 6 wins were in grade 1s, including the French Derby. He made a hair under 2 mil.
He is by Giants Causeway out of a full sister to Street Cry.
This has got to be one of the best bred 2yos out there.
