Farhh’s Atlast Takes The Prix La Force

[Wandering Eyes]

One of the least-exposed types assembled for Sunday's G3 Prix la Force at ParisLongchamp , the Wertheimers' Atlast (Fr) (Farhh {GB}–Pitamore, by More Than Ready) emerged with the prize to prompt Classic talk. Content to track the leaders under Maxime Guyon, the Christophe Ferland-trained 11-2 shot swept to the front with 1 1/2 furlongs remaining and asserted to score by 1 1/4 lengths from Mondo Man (GB) (Mondialiste {Ire}).

“He is obviously a very nice horse and it's nice to start the season like this,” Ferland said. “He had very good promise in his two runs last year and the target is the Prix du Jockey Club. We will see which route we take to get there depending how he comes out of this one. I have no doubt he will stay further, but the French 2000 [Poule d'Essai des Poulains] could be a possibility in between. We'll talk to the jockey to get his view and we'll decide in time. The ground is very testing, but he did well and trained well on the all-weather so I have no worries about the ground in the future.”

Le Prix la Force (Gr.3) revient à 𝗔𝘁𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 !

Plus revu depuis son succès à Chantilly le 12 octobre, le pensionnaire de Christophe Ferland s'est imposé avec autorité.
