Study Of Man’s Birthe Wins The Saint-Alary

[Wandering Eyes]

Completing a treble of shocks on Sunday's ParisLongchamp card, Alain Jathiere and Christine Guilbert's Birthe (Ire) (Study Of Man {Ire}–Barakaat {Fr}, by Lope De Vega {Ire}) upstaged her peers to take the G2 St Mark's Basilica Coolmore Prix Saint-Alary at 11-1. Coming off a win in Toulouse's Listed Prix Caravelle last month, the Laura Vanska-trained €10,000 Goffs Autumn Yearling Sale graduate was settled on the rail early by Aurelien Lemaitre tracking the leading duo. Sent up the cutaway to take over approaching the furlong pole, she was driven out to beat Almara (Fr) (Almanzor {Fr}) by 1 1/4 lengths.
