Myboycharlie’s Lastotchka Dominates Gladiateur Rivals

[Wandering Eyes]

In the money in three stakes outings since closing last term with a career high in Saint-Cloud's G3 Prix Belle de Nuit, Jean-Marie Beguigne trainee Lastotchka (Fr) (Myboycharlie {Ire}–Muthla {Fr}, by Muhtathir {GB}) regained the winning thread and doubled her pattern-race haul by dominating the closing stages of Sunday's G3 Prix Gladiateur at ParisLongchamp.

The 16-5 chance was quickly into stride to race second passing the judge first time and found a comfortable rhythm in third along the backstraight. Taking closer order on the home turn before claiming the lead in early straight, she was safely clear approaching the final furlong and stayed on strongly under continued rousting to easily hold closest pursuer Fasol (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) by two lengths. Vert Liberte (Ire) (Muhaarar {GB}) was 1 3/4 lengths away in third, denying Moon Wolf (Fr) (Intello {Ger}) by a nose in a bobbing finish for third.

Pedigree Notes
Lastotchka, a half-sister to the unraced 2-year-old colt Majestic Glory (Fr) (Olympic Glory {Ire}), is the first foal out of Muthla (Fr) (Muhtathir {GB}), whose second dam Colza (Alleged) produced G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud hero Linda's Lad (GB) (Sadler's Wells) and G3 Badener Meile placegetter Ulterior Motives (GB) (Selkirk). Descendants of the April-foaled bay's stakes-winning fourth dam Dockage (Riverman) include G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe-winning sire Rail Link (GB) (Dansili {GB}), Rail Link's G2 Prix du Conseil de Paris-winning half-brother Crossharbour (GB) (Zamindar) and G1 Derby, G1 St Leger and G1 Gold Cup runner-up Mojo Star (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}).
