Making every yard in Monday's G3 Prix Sigy at Chantilly, Amo Racing and Giselle De Aguiar's Arizona Blaze (GB) (Sergei Prokofiev) proved too tough and classy for a fascinating cast. Dropping back to 5 1/2 furlongs having finished a game third to Henri Matisse (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) in Leopardstown's seven-furlong G3 Ballylinch Stud Red Rocks Stakes, the Adrian Murray-trained G3 Marble Hill Stakes winner and GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint runner-up and G1 Phoenix Stakes third was out of reach under David Egan as the 9-5 favourite Polyvega (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) encountered traffic attempting to come from behind.

At the line, the 10-3 shot had 2 1/2 lengths to spare over Estepona (Fr) (Mehmas {Ire}), with Polyvega 3/4 of a length away in third. “He's a beautiful horse who has done very well physically from two to three and is impressive now,” his jockey said. “Those two runs early in the season meant that he was ready for today and I loved the way he finished off after the post–it was quite a struggle to pull him up. He has a lot of natural speed and is a Commonwealth Cup type, a real sprinter.”
