Kingman's Cosmic Year Powers to TDN Rising Stardom at Sandown

Yesterday at 15:25

Juddmonte's hitherto untested Cosmic Year (GB) (Kingman {GB}–Passage Of Time {GB}, by Dansili {GB}) was scratched from a fast-ground maiden at Newbury last month and rewarded connections' patience with a stunning debut display to attain 'TDN Rising Star' status in Wednesday's Sir Michael Stoute Farewell And Thank You Novice Stakes.

The Harry Charlton trainee was usurped in the betting market by Amo Racing's Rock D'Oro (Bolt D'Oro), who had chased home subsequent G2 Champagne Stakes victor Bay City Roller (Ire) (New Bay {GB}) on debut, and stalked that rival in second for most of this seven-furlong contest. Looming large on the bridle with a quarter-mile remaining, the 5-2 second favourite seized control entering the final furlong and powered clear in emphatic style to register a hugely impressive 6 1/2-length success.

Cosmic Year is the 12th of 13 live foals and eighth scorer out of G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud heroine Passage Of Time (GB) (Dansili {GB}), herself a full-sister to G2 King Edward VII Stakes-winning sire Father Time (GB) and a half to G1 Falmouth Stakes victrix Timepiece (GB) (Zamindar). The February-foaled homebred is kin to dual Group 2-winning sire Time Test (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), who placed three times at the highest level, dual Group 3 winner Tempus (GB) (Kingman {GB}) and to the dam of G3 Princess Royal Stakes victrix Time Lock (GB) (Frankel {GB}). Passage Of Time has a yearling filly by Dubawi (Ire) to come.
