GLOWING SKY (IRE) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) cost Lordship Stud 380,000gns at last year's Book 1, partly due to the fact that she is a half-sister to the G1 Preis von Europa winner Aspetar (Fr) (Al Kazeem {GB}) and also to the fact that she is a granddaughter of the Oaks, Irish Oaks and Yorkshire Oaks heroine Alexandrova (Ire) (Sadler's Wells). John and Thady Gosden introduce the April-foaled bay as well as Cheveley Park Stud's Medici Chapel (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}), a daughter of the G1 Coronation S. and G1 Fillies' Mile heroine Nannina (GB) (Medicean {GB}).
