Darjina too good for colts in MoulinFiled on 9 Sep 2007 @ 16:24
Darjina lands her third Group OnePrincess Zahra Aga Khan's Darjina (Zamindar - Darinska, by Zilzal) was a comfortable winner of the Group One Prix du Moulin de Longchamp over a mile on Sunday, her first start against colts. The winner of the Prix d'Essai des Pouliches and the Prix d'Astarte earlier this season, Darjina quickened past Ramonti, who had taken the lead from pacemaker Archipenko, a furlong from home, putting the race beyond doubt in strides. George Washington again put in a late fast run, but could finish only third. Gosden juvenile takes Prix la RochetteThe John Gosden-trained Young Pretender (Oasis Dream - Silent Heir, by Sunday Silence), who had dominated his opponents when winning a Newmarket maiden by three lengths last month, won the Group Three Prix la Rochette, beating the Andre Fabre-trained favourite Shediak by half a length. Princess Haya of Jordan's colt has entries in the Dewhurst and the Racing Post Trophy, and is one of a strong band of juveniles in John Gosden's yard. Sabana Perdida wins Prix du PinAlain de Royer-Dupre's Sabana Perdida (Cape Cross - Capriola, by Mr Prospector) won the Group Three Prix du Pin, beating King Jock by a length and a half. A Listed winner in Italy, Sabana Perdida's best effort came this June when third to Nannina in the Windsor Forest Stakes at Royal Ascot. Filed on 9 Sep 2007 @ 16:24
