Passing GlancePassing Glance

Multiple Group-winning Son of Polar Falcon

PASSING GLANCE improved with every race from 2 to 5 years, winning 7 times, including at Group 2 and Group 3 level and was placed on 12 occasions. In 2003 he was 2nd in the Gr.2 Celebration Mile at Goodwood, beating Group 1 winners/ performers Tillerman, Where Or When and Hurricane Alan. His easy 31/2 length win in the Gr.2 Darley Oettingen-Rennen and his impressive victory in the 2004 Vodafone Diomed Stakes Gr.3 at Epsom, where he made all to beat a quality field including, Gateman, Checkit, Vespone and Duck Row, were proof of his true class as a miler.

On the track he was a brave, tough horse who had plenty of pace and would just keep going; performing well on all types of ground. These qualities, combined with his correct conformation, make him an ideal dual-purpose stallion prospect.

Jockey Martin Dwyer, said of the horse "I have yet to sit on a horse with such blistering pace over a mile as Passing Glance".

Retired to stud in 2005, PASSING GLANCE's fertility is excellent and his first foals have pleased breeders.
