Back in her comfort zone after a latest second in the seven-furlong G2 Prix du Calvados at Deauville on Aug. 22, Alain Jathiere, Maurizio Guarnieri and Sauro-Andrea Fiordelli’s Plainchant (Fr) (Gregorian {Ire}) was in dominating mood in Friday’s G3 Prix Eclipse at Chantilly. Blazing the trail from the outset with the emphasis on speed over a furlong shorter, the bay strained the arms of Valentin Seguy throughout and by halfway had all rivals covered. Clear in the closing stages, the 13-5 second favourite was eased late to record an impressive five-length success from the 23-10 favourite Legal Attack (GB) (Shalaa {Ire}). “She is loaded with speed and a very good filly,” trainer Maurizio Guarnieri said. “I knew I had something good after her maiden and she has gone from strength to strength. She is better back at this six and at halfway I knew she’d win. She will not go further than seven this year and we’ll take our time to find a suitable race.”

Plainchant had got off the mark at the expense of the subsequent G3 Prix d’Arenberg scorer Kalahara (GB) (Frankel {GB}) over this trip at La Teste de Buch on June 3 and in hindsight was hugely underestimated and overpriced when beating Stardevote at odds of 16-1 in the Listed Criterium du Bequet over that course and distance on July 26. Headed late on by Fev Rover (Ire) (Gutaifan {Ire}) when attempting to make all in the Calvados, she still finished in front of the subsequent G3 Prix d’Aumale winner King’s Harlequin (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) and the Listed Ingabelle S. runner-up No Speak Alexander (Ire) (Shalaa {Ire}) over a distance that probably stretches her to the limit.

Pedigree Notes

The dam Nadinska (GB) (Doyen {Ire}), who also has the yearling filly Alice Blue (Fr) (Reliable Man {GB}), is a half to three black-type performers headed by the G2 Prix de Sandringham winner and G1 Sun Chariot S. third Laugh out Loud (GB) (Clodovil {Ire}) who in turn produced the GII San Marcos S. and G3 Gallinule S. scorer Platinum Warrior (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Nadinska’s other half-siblings include the stouter-staying pair of the Listed Pinnacle S. and Listed Chalice S. winner Suzi’s Decision (GB) (Act One {GB}) and Baghdad (Fr) (Frankel {GB}) who was third in the Glorious S.
