Elyaasaat can extend rich vein of form for Frankel three-year-olds
Colt is out of Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf heroine Lahudood

Frankel covered no fewer than three winners of the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf in a glittering first book of mares.
Midday, whose first foal Midterm was a Group 3 winner, had a filly foal. In training with Sir Michael Stoute, she has been named Mori and is entered for the first time in a fillies' maiden at Newbury on Friday.
Zagora produced her first foal Oshayger, who finished a close third in a hotly-contested mile maiden for unraced colts and geldings at Chantilly on Sunday.
Completing the trio was Lahudood, whose Frankel colt Elyaasaat is declared for the mile bet365 Wood Ditton Maiden Stakes for three-year-olds at Newmarket on Tuesday (1.50pm).
Unlike Midday and Zagora, Lahudood was an experienced broodmare.
Her Kingmambo daughter Aghareed won the Listed Prix de Liancourt at Longchamp for trainer John Hammond, while Munasara - who now has a yearling Frankel filly - was trained by Kiaran McLaughlin to win two races in the US.
McLaughlin also trained Lahudood in the latter part of her racing career, when she won the Flower Bowl Invitational at Belmont and at the Breeders' Cup. She had previously been trained by Hammond in France, for whom she won the 2006 running of the Liancourt at Longchamp.
Lahudood is a half-sister to Kareemah, a Listed winner in France, out of a daughter of the Cheshire Oaks runner-up Bashayer, who in turn is out of the blue hen Height Of Fashion.
Lahudood also has a two-year-old War Front filly and a yearling Tapit filly.
William Haggas and Jim Crowley team up with the colt, who is one of three newcomers in the race set to carry the colours of Hamdan Al Maktoum.
Buldan is by New Approach out of Meeznah, who won and was placed in the Park Hill Stakes at Doncaster. The Sir Michael Stoute-trained colt was bought by Blandford Bloodstock for 375,000gns from Hillwood Stud at the 2015 Tattersalls October Book 1 Yearling Sale, and is set to be ridden by Ted Durcan.
Going up against the boys is the Canford Cliffs filly Jalela, who realised 180,000gns when bought by Al Shaqab at the same sale.
Frankie Dettori takes the ride on the Richard Hannon-trained filly, who is a half-sister to Electric Beat, a Group 2 winner in Germany, and the ill-fated Gray Pearl, who was third in the Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket.
Exciting debutant bred in the purple
On the same card at Newmarket, Charlie Hills runs the Shadwell homebred Afaak in the 7f Alex Scott Maiden Stakes for three-year-olds (4.35pm). Dane O'Neill takes the ride on the only newcomer in the nine-runner field.
The Classic-bred colt is by Oasis Dream - whose top-class progeny includes Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Power - out of the 1,000 Guineas winner Ghanaati.
Ghanaati, a daughter of Giant's Causeway, won the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot a month after her Classic success, and is a half-sister to Champion Stakes runner-up Mawatheeq and the Oaks third Rumoush.
Their dam Sarayir won the Listed Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket, and is out of Height Of Fashion, mentioned above as the third dam of Lahudood.
Charlie Hills also has Ghanaati's two-year-old Dubawi colt in his care, named Wafy, while the mare also has a yearling Invincible Spirit filly.
