Lining up for Sunday's G1 Qatar Prix du Jockey Club as the least-experienced, Haras de la Morsangliere's Look De Vega (GB) (Lope De Vega {Ire}–Lucelle {Ire}, by High Chaparral {Ire}) took the required leap forward on a remarkable stakes debut to emulate his sire and sire's sire's successes in this Chantilly Classic.

Following a seven-length Fontainebleau success in November with another authoritative win in ParisLongchamp's Prix de Croissy conditions event last month, the Carlos and Yann Lerner-trained bay was always happy following the pace and when sent through to take control with 300 metres remaining gave generously for Ronan Thomas.

Stretching out for a two-length triumph, the 5-1 shot was followed home by the outsider First Look (Fr) who made it a one-two for the sire. Sosie (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) was third, a further neck away with Ghostwriter (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) fourth as he had been in the 2,000 Guineas.
