Closely related to French 9.5f winner City of Women and half-brother to several winners, including useful 5f/6f winner From Me To Me.

TIMEFORM VIEW Showed ability amidst obvious signs of inexperience when second on debut at Windsor (5f, heavy) in May and duly proved much sharper when going one place better in a Salisbury novice (5f) later that month. Step up in trip a likely plus and there’s better to come.

TIMEFORM VIEW €35,000 foal, £80,000 yearling, Sioux Nation colt. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner). Better for debut when winning 6f Windsor novice in good style 3 weeks ago. Could be useful.

2022: CHATEAU (IRE) 2 9 2 William Buick 9-4 (Andrew Balding) 6 ran

Betting Forecast: 2-1 Asadna (IRE), 13-2 Balon d’Or (GB), Shagraan (IRE), 8-1 Markakol (GB), 14-1 Palmar Bay (FR), 18-1 Dapper Valley (IRE), Kinnigoli Kid (IRE), 20-1 Action Point (IRE), 33-1 Inishfallen (IRE), 66-1 Odonnell’s Orchard (IRE)

Race Summary: ASADNA failed to meet expectations in the Coventry at Royal Ascot but is worth another chance to confirm debut promise down in class. Shagraan looked good when winning at Windsor so rates the main threat ahead of Markakol, who should continue to progress.
