Backed into 7-10 to give his freshman sire (by Monsun {Ger}) his fourth individual winner, Mandaean was quickly away in this debut and professional in front under Maxime Guyon. Without much need for animation from the rider, the bay had his rivals fully stretched inside the final quarter and coasted to the line under a hold for a facile three-length success from Mortga (Fr) (Anabaa). Mandaean is a half to Wavering (Ire) (Refuse To Bend {Ire}), G1SW-Fr, $243,711, and hails from the family of English and Irish champion juvenile Golden Fleece (Nijinsky II). Lifetime Record: 1 start, 1 win, €12,000.
