The family

The dam of 'Mabel' is Lonely Paradise, an unraced full sister to Eternally Yours who is a winner of a bumper and 3 hurdle races. Lonely Paradise suffered an unfortunate injury as a yearling which prevented her from having a career on the racecourse.

The grand-dam Well Disguised was trained here at Dodlands Steading and won 4 hurdles races and was placed in bumper and further hurdle races. She is also the dam of Nights In Venice, another resident at Dodlands Steading for season 2022-23 and that gelding has been placed in a bumper and over hurdles.
Well Disguised is a half sister to a useful staying jumper of Paul Nicholls' in French Executive, the winner of 7 races over jumps including the Sussex National.

Lonely Paradise also has a filly by Scalo (born 2022).

About the sire

Black Sam Bellamy (bay horse, b 1999), a big, strong close-coupled type, was trained by Aiden O'Brien in his 3 seasons on the track from 2-4. Of his 4 wins, two were Group 1 affairs - over 12f at San Siro and the Tattersalls Gold Cup (10f) the following season.
He achieved a Timeform rating of 121 at his peak.
Of course, it is his pedigree that has proved an even better attraction to breeders. One of 9 black-type performers out of the great broodmare Urban Sea, Black Sam Bellamy is a full brother to the immense Galileo and a half-brother to Sea The Stars.
Retired to stud in Germany in 2004 where he stood for 5 seasons as a Flat Sire before he relocated to Shade Oak Stud in 2009 to start a new career as an NH Sire at a reasonably priced £3k per cover.
Amongst his best progeny have been Graded chase winner The Giant Bolster, Graded chase/hurdle winner Sam Spinner, Mildmay Chase winner Sam Brown & multiple Grade 1 winning French hurdler Galop Marin. He died in 2018 but the string of high class progeny will flow for years to come.

Form Summary

Season 2022-23 outlook

As an unbroken 3 year old, 'Mabel' was acquired by TD9 Racing in early Spring 2022, and after being broken in by Nick Orpwood, the filly spent an initial period of a few weeks here at Dodlands
'Mabel' is of course the first foal out of an unraced full sister to Eternally Yours and so a daughter of Well Disguised, and she has very pleasingly shown the family traits on the home gallops - travelling easily and willingly.

Early days though and this filly is one who will be in and out of the yard during the course of the season but it may be next year before she is seen on the racecourse.
