MOTHER NATURE (IRE) (Justify) is an eyecatcher as the first foal out of the maiden winner Heaven On Earth (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who is in turn a full-sister to Ballydoyle's luminaries Minding (Ire), Tuesday (Ire) and Empress Josephine (Ire). Aidan O'Brien pitches the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas entry into the maiden he won last year with Justify's Red Riding Hood (Ire) and she meets Moyglare Stud's intriguing newcomer Step To Somewhere (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), a Dermot Weld-trained 280,000gns Book 1 purchase who is a granddaughter of the dual Group 2 winner Best Terms (GB) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}).
