Godolphin’s superstar Australian runner Anamoe (Aus) (Street Boss) is one of 30 nominees at the latest entry stage for the G1 Al Shaqab Lockinge S. on Saturday, May 20, Newbury Racecourse revealed on Tuesday.
A nine-time Group 1 winner Down Under, the bay won the G1 George Ryder in mid-March last out, part of a three-race winning streak from seven furlongs to one mile, which began in the G2 Apollo S. in February and continued in the G1 Chipping Norton S. later that month.
Newbury’s eight-furlong contest also features fellow Godolphin runners Modern Games (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), and 2022 Lockinge runner-up Real World (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}). Blue Diamond Stud’s G1 Prix de Diane heroine Nashwa (GB) (Frankel {GB}) is among the entries, as is three-time G1 Dubai Turf hero Lord North (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}). Other top-level scorers set to take part include Angel Bleu (Fr) (Dark Angel {Ire}), Order Of Australia (Ire) (Australia {GB}), The Revenant (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), Homeless Songs (Ire) (Frankel {GB}), who runs in the Listed Irish Stallion Farms EBF Heritage S. at Leopardstown on Wednesday, Inspiral (GB) (Frankel {GB}), and Sacred (GB) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}) are other runners of note in what appears to be a contentious feature.
