First Group Winner For Sergei Prokofiev In The Marble Hill

[Wandering Eyes]

Continuing the stellar start to his stud career of Sergei Prokofiev, Amo Racing and Giselle De Aguiar's Arizona Blaze (GB) outstayed Ballydoyle's TDN Rising Star Camille Pissarro (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) at the close of The Curragh's G3 GAIN Marble Hill S. run in memory of Theresa Marnane on Saturday. Second to the runner-up's stablemate Whistlejacket (Ire) (No Nay Never) in the five-furlong Listed First Flier S. here earlier this month, the £82,000 Goffs UK Premier graduate who was his sire's first winner also at this venue in March set off in front under David Egan. Tackled and passed by Ballydoyle's 4-6 favourite inside the final furlong, the 7-1 shot looked booked for second again but battled tenaciously to get back in front close home and score by a head.
