Natagora, New Approach look ahead to future targets Stefan Friborg's One Thousand Guineas (Eng-G1) winner NATAGORA (Divine Light) was reported to have come out of the Newmarket classic well and has a range of options for her next run. The owner's Racing Manager Patrick Barbe spoke of the alternatives for the Pascal Bary-trained gray, who scored as the 11-4 favorite by a half-length from SPACIOUS (Nayef). "She left about four hours after the race and is very well," he told PA Sport. "She's been eating, sleeping and having a little walk around. The range of races is wide open. She's entered in the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches (French One Thousand Guineas [Fr-G1] on Sunday), the Irish One Thousand Guineas ([Ire-G1] at the Curragh on May 25), the Prix du Jockey-Club (French Derby [Fr-G1] at Chantilly June 1), Prix de Diane (French Oaks [Fr-G1] at Chantilly June 8) and the Coronation S. ([Eng-G1] at Royal Ascot June 20). She can't run in them all, but we will have a think in the next few days." Trainer Jim Bolger on Monday reported his weekend Guineas runners on course for the upcoming Curragh classics and reported the Two Thousand Guineas (Eng-G1) runner-up NEW APPROACH (Galileo [Ire]) to be "very well" following his narrow defeat. Princess Haya of Jordan's National S. (Ire-G1) and Dewhurst S. (Eng-G1) winner will seek revenge on his Newmarket conqueror HENRYTHENAVIGATOR (Kingmambo) in the Irish equivalent May 24. "He doesn't know he didn't come out on top and he is on course for the Irish Two Thousand Guineas (Ire-G1)," Bolger said. Of the One Thousand Guineas third and sixth, SAOIRSE ABU (Mr. Greeley) and LUSH LASHES (Galileo [Ire]), respectively, he added, "Saoirse Abu is heading for the Irish One Thousand Guineas, while Lush Lashes will go for the (July 13) Irish Oaks (Ire-G1)."
