Wathnan Racing's G2 Gimcrack second Final Objective (Sioux Nation) was all the rage in the pre-race betting exchanges and swooped late to continue an extraordinary run for his sire in a bunch finish to Friday's G2 Carlsberg Danish Pilsner Flying Childers at Doncaster.He was a €55,000 Tattersalls Ireland September yearling, which turned into a £115,000 Goffs UK Breeze-Up pinhooking success for Mick Murphy when knocked down to Blandford Bloodstock at Doncaster in April.“He's a testament to Hamad [Al Jehani] and his team because he has not been an easy conveyance whatsoever,” said James Doyle. “Faleh [Bughenaim], our Qatari jockey, has done a brilliant job with him. He rides him every day and has to suffer on a daily basis. I only ride him now and again, so I have to thank him. He was a bit wayward again late on, but that is just his nature, he's a bit tricky. I was just trying to hang on to their coattails because I was a little bit outpaced early. He's got decent form at six [furlongs] and this was his first time back at five, but it wasn't a problem as he's got more than enough speed. I thought he was going to win the Gimcrack, but when he got out he hung his chance away and I thought he was going to do a similar thing today. He's not easy, but he's more straightforward than he used to be.”Final Objective has hammered down to 9-4 favouritism for this dash, shorn of G3 Molecomb winner Pershaada (Persian Force), and found a rhythm racing under cover towards the rear through the initial fractions.Urged forward once past halfway, he moved into contention approaching the final furlong and found plenty under a late drive to overpower Crownbreaker (Minzaal) and TDN Rising Star Flann Sunna (Blue Point) by a neck and a half-length as things got tight in a five-way battle at the line. What a finish!Final Objective thwarts Crownbreaker in the final strides, landing the G2 Flying Childers Stakes…@DoncasterRaces pic.twitter.com/2PWQn2TwLA— At The Races (@AtTheRaces) September 11, 2026 Pedigree NotesFinal Objective is the third of five foals and leading performer from two winners out of a half-sister to the Listed-winning duo Cape Factor (Oratorio) and My Eyes Adore You (Profitable), the multiple Group-placed Court House (Dawn Approach) and to the dam of the stakes-placed Shared Belief (Dandy Man).His stakes-placed third dam Alegranza (Lake Coniston) is a half-sister to the dam of G1 Cheveley Park and GI Natalma heroine Serious Attitude (Mtoto).Final Objective is kin to a yearling colt by Blackbeard, who is due under the hammer at the forthcoming Goffs Orby Book 2 sale, and a weanling filly by Paddington.
