With a Dubawi (Ire) yearling colt out of his half-sister Lady Bowthorpe (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}) due through Tattersalls' Park Paddocks ring within the hour, Ralph Beckett trainee Arctic Voyage (GB) (Kingman {GB}–Maglietta Fina {Ire}, by Verglas {Ire}) picked the perfect moment to update his family's catalogue page with an impressive 6 1/2-length tally in Wednesday's Fireworks Tickets On Sale Now EBF Novice Stakes at Nottingham.

 

2nd-Nottingham, £6,899, Nov, 10-9, 2yo, 6f 18yT, 1:18.04, hy.
ARCTIC VOYAGE (GB) (c, 2, Kingman {GB}–Maglietta Fina {Ire}, by Verglas {Ire}), who hit the board tackling seven furlongs at Newbury in his Sept. 21 debut last time, was well away to race in a prominent third through halfway here. Shaken up to gain control with 1 1/2 furlongs remaining, the 3-1 second favourite was not for catching thereafter and extended clear inside the final furlong to easily account for Curzon (GB) (Advertise {GB}) by an impressive 6 1/2 lengths. Arctic Voyage is the seventh of eight foals and fourth scorer produced by a multiple-winning half-sister to multiple Group-winning G1 Lockinge Stakes runner-up Tullius (Ire) (Le Vie Dei Colori {GB}). The April-foaled grey is a half-brother to G1 Nassau Stakes heroine Lady Bowthorpe (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}), multiple Group-winning G2 Greenlands Stakes victor Speak In Colours (GB) (Excelebration {Ire}), Listed Cooley Stakes third Pretty In Grey (GB) (Brazen Beau {Aus}) and a yearling colt by Frankel (GB). Later in the afternoon, Lady Bowthorpe's yearling colt by Dubawi (Ire) was knocked down to Godolphin for a whopping 2-million guineas at Tattersalls' October Book 1 sale. Sales history: 85,000gns Ylg '23 TATOCT. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1, $7,913.
