Coolmore Blueblood Introduced at Tipperary

Observations on the European Racing Scene turns the spotlight on the best European races of the day, highlighting well-pedigreed horses early in their careers, horses of note returning to action and young runners that achieved notable results in the sales ring. Tuesday's Observations features the first foal of MGSP Butterflies (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}).

4.40 Tipperary, Mdn, €5,500, 2yo, f, 5fT
YET (War Front) is the first foal out of what could prove to be an important broodmare for Coolmore in the dual Group 3-placed Butterflies (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), herself a daughter of Mariah's Storm (Rahy). Therefore a half-sister to Giant's Causeway and his full-sibling You'resothrilling, Butterflies is therefore connected to Galileo's Gleneagles (Ire), Marvellous (Ire) and Happily (Ire).
