Yah Mo Be There had finished a short-head second to the useful Andesite on debut and was sent off among the favourites for the Coventry Stakes

Shadwell’s exciting first-season sire Mohaather registered a first black-type winner when his highly talented son Yah Mo Be There broke his maiden by taking the Listed Rose Bowl Stakes at Newbury in thrilling fashion on Friday.

Mohaather is also the sire of impressive Carlisle debut winner Serving With Style and Chester nursery scorer Dukes Of Haather, as well as five other placed performers.

A Showcasing full-brother to dual US Grade 2 winner Prize Exhibit and half-brother to Roodle, the dam of Queen Anne Stakes hero Accidental Agent, he was a Pattern winner at two, three and four.

His finest hour came when he showed an exceptional turn of foot to defeat stars Circus Maximus, Siskin and Kameko when landing the Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.
