Well-related newcomers the order of the day in Britain and Ireland on Tuesday
Siblings to Cloak Of Spirits and Sergei Prokofiev set to make their debuts
John and Thady Gosden will saddle the first foal out of Taghrooda's full-sister in the form of Ubahha, a son of Dubawi, in the mile novice contest (4.45) at Yarmouth on Tuesday.
The three-year-old Ubahha is out of the winning Taqaareed, a Shadwell homebred and a full-sister to Oaks and King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes winner Taghrooda. The pair are out of the multiple stakes-winning Sadler's Wells mare Ezima.
Among the gelding's ten rivals are Godolphin's winning Royal Fleet, a Dubawi half-brother to Group 3 Prix de Ris-Orangis winner and Champagne Stakes runner-up Royal Fleet, and the Queen's twice-raced Chalk Stream, a Sea The Stars half-brother to Group 1 Winx Stakes runner-up Invictus Prince.
Richard Hannon's Classic hopes were raised at Newbury on Saturday and the leading trainer will unleash Meadow Sprite - a Slade Power half-sister to last season's 1,000 Guineas second Cloak Of Spirits - at Wolverhampton in the seven-furlong novice event (7.50).
Owned and bred by Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum, the three-year-old is out of the Pivotal mare Pivotique and will attempt to shelve her maiden tag against nine rivals including Mareera, a daughter of Elusive Quality and the stakes-placed Danehill mare Nasmatt.
Over at Tipperary, Joseph O'Brien and Qatar Racing & Cornthrop BS Partnership will combine with the debutante Early Warning, an Air Force Blue half-sister to Group 3-winning juvenile and Coventry Stakes third Sergei Prokofiev, who is standing his first season at stud at Whitsbury Manor.
The daughter of the 2015 European champion juvenile is out of the Tapit mare Orchard Beach, a half-sister to Grade 3 winner Necessary Evil. The three-year-old faces 17 rivals in the five-furlong maiden (5.10).
