Saeed Suhail's unraced SPUN TO GOLD (Justify), a $65,000 Keeneland September yearling turned €200,000 Arqana May Breezer, is an Andrew Balding-trained son of G1 Moyglare Stud S. and G1 Prix Marcel Boussac victrix Rumplestiltskin (Ire) (Danehill) and thus a half-brother to G1 Yorkshire Oaks winner Tapestry (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). His 10 rivals include Juddmonte's Qirat (GB) (Showcasing {GB}), a half-brother to Ralph Beckett stablemate and G1 Irish Oaks runner-up Bluestocking (GB) (Camelot {GB}) out of G1 Matron S. heroine Emulous (GB) (Dansili {GB}), who recovered from a slow getaway to post a promising debut third over six furlongs at Newmarket earlier this month.
