SEVEN HEAVENS is also reported as on course for a crack at the Dewhurst after pleasing connections in a gallop this week.
 
TOULIFAUT made €1,900,000 at the Arc Sale, sold to agents Narvick International. She will run for her new connections in tomorrow's G1 Marcel Boussac.

Confirmed that TOULIFAUT was purchased on behalf of the Yoshida's. No word on whether she will stay in Europe or move to Japan next year. Their previous purchases tend to stay in Europe to finish their racing careers, are covered by a top stallion then moved back to join the Japanese broodmare band.
 
AMBROSIA, the impressive looking Ed Dunlop trained filly, has been given an entry at Newmarket on Friday.
 
Shame about TOULIFAUT's run on Sunday, her jockey got her in an awful position and then she looked to stumble before being eased down. Hopefully she'll be back next year to improve on things.

KHATTAR runs in the 3.10 at Brighton today for Hugo Palmer.
 
Entries over the next week:

AMBROSIA entered in a Maiden at Newmarket on Friday
TOP DECK entered in a Maiden at Maison-Laffittes on Friday
CUNCO, EMINENT, FRANKUUS and SWISS STORM all entered in a G3 at Newmarket on Saturday
SEVEN HEAVENS in the Dewhurst (G1) at Newmarket on Saturday
CUNCO entered in a Listed race at Newmarket on Saturday
MIRAGE DANCER entered in a Maiden at York on Saturday
FRANKUUS entered in a G3 at Chantilly on Saturday
COUNT OCTAVE and MONARCHS GLEN entered in a Maiden at Goodwood on Sunday
COUNT OCTAVE and UAE KING entered in a Maiden at Yarmouth on Monday (I'm pretty certain this is the Maiden won by Dubai Milennium)
ICESPIRE entered in a Maiden at Salisbury on Monday
 
TOP DECK 7th on debut. I hadn't realised quite how badly the Head-Maarek have done this year (due to The Virus), they've only had 3 winners.
 
FRANKUUS wins the G3 at Chantilly. Fourth individual Group winner, though he had already won a Listed race.
 
COUNT OCTAVE and MONARCHS GLEN both go in the 4.20pm at Goodwood this afternoon.
ICESPIRE declared at Salisbury tomorrow
SAN REMO declared at The Curragh tomorrow

I can't recall if I'd put the Newmarket Guineas entries for Frankel offspring up (I know I have done the Irish equivalents) so here they are:


2,000 Guineas
CUNCO
EMINENT
FRANKUUS
SENATOR
SEVEN HEAVENS
SWISS STORM


1,000 Guineas
ALJEZEERA
FAIR EVA
QUEEN KINDLY

Obviously there will be a supplementary stage nearer the race for those that show some sparkle in the coming months.
 
Can't get excited by any of those for the classics. But then, at present, I can't see anything to get excited about.

Just looking at the Timeform ratings for all the top European horses, it looks a right muddle. For a horse that gets 3rd in the Abbaye and has twice been beaten by Profitable (no disrespect intended) to be the highest rated of the older horses and for a horse that finished 8th and 9th in his last 2 races to be joint 2nd top of the 3yos just about says it all.
