Impressive Start For Lope de Vega Filly At Cagnes

1st-CGN, €24,000, Mdn, 2-20, 3yo, f, 7 1/2fT, 1:39.44, vs.
+AL HAYYAH (IRE) (f, 3, Lope de Vega {Ire}–Black Dahlia {GB} {SP-Eng}, by Dansili {GB}), a €60,000 ARAUG yearling, was sluggish from the gates but was quickly able to establish a midfield position. Cruising entering the straight, the 2-5 crowd's choice took total command with 300 meters left and surged away under hand riding to score by four lengths from Lila Mahyana (Fr) (Muhaymin). The dam, who has a 2-year-old full-brother to the winner, hails from the family of the dual G1 Lockinge S. winner Soviet Line (Ire) (Soviet Star). Lifetime Record: 1 start, 1 win, €12,000.
