Ascot Stud’s well performed Galileo horse Global View was in the headlines when he came up with two eye catching two-year-old winners at Fairview on Friday.
Global View’s daughter Feeling Foxy made the perfect start to her career when she ran out a last gasp winner of the first race on the card, the Welcome To Nelson Mandela Bay Racing Maiden Juvenile Plate (Fillies) over 1100m.
Under an inform Greg Cheyne, the Alan Greeff trained two-year-old forced her head down where it mattered most to score a short-head win on debut.
Bred by Ascot Stud, Feeling Foxy, who is out of the Sapieha mare Plumosa, was a R70 000 buy from the 2021 August Two Year Old Sale.
The filly holds an entry for the upcoming Listed East Cape Fillies Nursery.
Global View struck again in the very next race when his promising son Forest Spy captured the second race at Fairview, the Betontab.co.za Juvenile Plate over 1000 metres.
Under Warren Kennedy, the Gavin Smith trained colt made it two wins from just three starts with a facile two and a quarter length win (another son of Global View, Sand Bank, ran third).
Also bred by Ascot Stud, Forest Spy, whose sole loss thus far came when he ran third on debut, was a R100 000 buy from last year’s August Two Year Old Sale.
Global View, South Africa’s Leading First Season Sire of 2019-2020 , has 15 lots on offer at the upcoming National Yearling Sale.
