Sent off the 9-4 second choice following a promising debut third over seven furlongs at Ascot in September, Intilaaq was soon in front under Paul Hanagan shadowed by Chief Spirit (GB) (Norse Dancer {Ire}). Putting that rival into the red before the quarter pole, the bay whose dam was a G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches heroine pounded him into submission as he galloped to a hugely impressive eight-length success from Keble (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}), who edged out Chief Spirit by a head for second. The winner is a half-brother to Farmah (Speightstown), Hwt. 3yo-Ity at 5-7f, GSW-Ity & SW-Fr, $158,251. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1, £5,945.
