ZALAMEA (IRE) (c, 3, Lope de Vega {Ire}–Tanzania {Ire}, by Alzao), who started his career with a second to the potentially smart Taareef (Kitten's Joy) over this trip at Bordeaux-le-Bouscat in September, was anchored behind the leading trio throughout the early exchanges. Delivered wide early in the straight, the 4-5 favourite rolled past Alberobello (Fr) (Fuisse {Fr}) with a furlong remaining and was pushed out to readily outgun that rival by 1 1/4 lengths. Tanzania, who has also produced Milwaukee (Fr) (Desert King {Ire}), SP-Fr & US, $152,887; Amorama (Fr) (Sri Pekan), MGISW-US, $794,353; Uncoiled (Fr) (Giant's Causeway), SW & MGSP-Jpn, $1,826,518; Table Ronde (Ire) (Astronomer Royal), SW & MGSP-Fr, $114,020; and also the dam of last year's G1 Prix Jean Romanet and G1 Premio Lydia Tesio winner Odeliz (Ire) (Falco), has a yearling full-brother to the winner. Lifetime Record: 2 starts, 1 win, 1 place, €15,700. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
