The post Olympic Glory’s Shiffrin Dominates Prix de Conde Rivals first appeared on Horse Racing Free Tips.]]> Haras d'Etreham's homebred Shiffrin (Ire) (Olympic Glory {Ire}–Scruples, by Pioneerof the Nile) followed up a pair of wins at Clairefontaine with a third on stakes bow in last month's Listed Criterium du Fonds Europeen de l'Elevage and stepped forward to notch a career best in Saturday's G3 Prix de Conde at Chantilly. In command after the initial strides, the 3-1 chance was last to come off the bridle in the straight and kept on strongly under a drive inside the final 300 metres to comfortably hold De Sica (Fr) (Demarchelier {GB}) by 1 1/2 lengths. Gold Index (Ire) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}) finished a neck adrift in third.

“To win my first Group race here at Chantilly, I am almost speechless,” said trainer Nicolas Le Roch after registering a landmark success. “Thanks goes to my team at home and thanks also to Nicolas de Chambure. He is a super boss and I would not be here without him. We always loved this filly, even though she ran moderately first time out, but we kept the faith and all has gone well since. She did all we expected from her and all we had planned. She stays well, she had a great ride and she will come back for the [Oct. 22 G1] Criterium de Saint-Cloud.”

Pedigree Notes

Shiffrin, who becomes the ninth pattern-race winner for her sire, is the second of three foals and lone scorer out of Scruples (Pioneerof The Nile), herself an unraced half to G3 Gallinule S. victor Crossfirehurricane (Kitten's Joy) and Listed Patton S. victrix My Generation (Speightstown). The January-foaled bay's stakes-winning second dam Louvakhova (Maria's Mon), whose descendants include multiple stakes winner Jack And Noah (Fr) (Bated Breath {GB}), is a half-sister to GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf and G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches heroine Flotilla (Fr) (Mizzen Mast). Louvakhova is a daughter of G3 Prix Miesque winner Louvain (Ire) (Sinndar {Ire}), herself a half-sister to G1 Haydock Sprint Cup hero G Force (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}). Scruples has a yearling filly by Belardo (Ire) to come.

The post Pedro the Great Colt Shoots To TDN Rising Stardom first appeared on Horse Racing Free Tips.]]> Haras de la Haie Neuve's deceased sire Pedro the Great was the unlikely source of a new TDN Rising Star on Tuesday after his son Breizh Sky (Fr) registered an eight-length win at Saint-Cloud. Sadly lost to the breeding world at just nine, the G1 Phoenix S.-winning sire had begun to excel from small numbers before his untimely demise and it could be that this year's crop serves as a statement of what might have been. Sent off at 15-2 for the six-furlong Prix Hunyade for unraced 2-year-old colts and geldings, Breizh Sky who races for Louis Baudron and his trainers Alessandro and Giuseppe Botti was quickly at the head of affairs with Simon Planque unable to contain his enthusiasm. Helped by the turning track, the bay who was unsold at €14,000 at the last year's Arqana Deauville v2 Yearling Sale settled before the home straight and opened up from there to register a penultimate split of 11.31 and inflict the heavy defeat on Purple Rain (Fr) (Harry Angel {Ire}), with Clifton Down (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) two lengths further away in third.

As his name suggests, Breizh Sky descends from Danse Bretonne (Fr) (Exit To Nowhere) who was a half-sister to the dual group 3-winning sire Kaldounevees (Fr) (Kaldoun {Fr}) who was also runner-up in the GI Man o' War S. and G1 Bayerisches Zuchtrennen. Her staying daughter Varevees (GB) (Kahyasi {Ire}) was successful in the G3 Prix Gladiateur and second in the G1 Prix du Cadran, while she is also the second dam of the Listed Prix Maurice Caillault winner Speedo Boy (Fr) (Vision d'Etat {Fr}), Saturday's German listed scorer Toskana Belle (Fr) (Shamalgan {Fr}) and the dual listed-placed Frohsim (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}).

2nd-Saint-Cloud, €27,000, Mdn, 5-17, unraced 2yo, c/g, 6fT, 1:13.63, g/s.
