Half-brother to Ribchester to make his debut at Catterick
Golconda Prince was bought for 85,000gns
The opening race at Catterick on Tuesday, the 7f novice stakes at 2.15pm, sees Richard Fahey unleash Golconda Prince, an Arcano half-brother to the stable's Group 2-winning juvenile Ribchester.
It took the son of Iffraaj three attempts to break his maiden with a runner-up finish in the 6f Group 2 Gimcrack Stakes being followed by victory in the 6f Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes on his first start carrying the blue of Godolphin, having originally raced in the colours of David Armstrong.
The three-year-old colt started this season with a second-place in the 7f Group 3 Prix Djebel, only to be disqualified for causing interference, before finishing an excellent third in the 2,000 Guineas.
