PROGRESS REPORT - OBSERVATORY TWO YEAR OLDS

ANDREW BALDING

DARK MOON
b.f.  Observatory – Lady Donatella (Last Tycoon). 

“She’s a nice filly, I like her and she’s a really good advert for the sire.  She’s medium-sized, very well put-together and very athletic.  I’d like to think she’d be suited by six furlongs to begin with, in late May or early June”. 

TIM EASTERBY

OBSERVATORY STAR (IRE)
br.c.  Observatory – Pink Sovietstaia (Soviet Star). 
78,000Y.  Tattersalls October.  Highflyer Bloodstock. 

“A nice sort, I like the look of him and he looks a definite runner”. 

BARRY HILLS

MARIE (IRE)
gr.f.  Observatory – Marie de Bayeux (Turgeon). 
40,000Y.  Tattersalls October.  Charlie Gordon-Watson. 

 “A grey filly, she’s showing all the right signs and is a stocky type that’s well put-together.  A good mover and she shows a lot of speed”. 

KEVIN PRENDERGAST

OSPREY VIEW (IRE)
b.c.  Observatory – Waffle On (Chief Singer). 
50,000Y.  Tattersalls December.  Mr F Barry. 

“A nice horse, we like him a lot, he’s a good-moving colt and an athletic type”. 

MARK WALLACE

SKY WONDER
ch.f.  Observatory – Musianica (Music Boy). 
90,000Y.  Tattersalls October.  McKeever St Lawrence. 

“One of the nicest looking two-year-olds I’ve got.  We’re taking our time with her and we’ll probably start her off at six furlongs.  She’s quite scopey, but she’s strong and looks a two-year-old with a bit of size and strength about her.  She’s a beauty”.
