In-form conditioner Francis Graffard continued on a winning roll at Saint-Cloud Tuesday afternoon and saddled Aga Khan Studs homebred Narissa (Siyouni) to become her sire's 15th TDN Rising Star after delivering a stunning performance in the seven-furlong Prix Allee d'Amour. Siyouni, himself a Rising Star, boasts a roll of honour which also includes last month's G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches heroine  Zarigana.

The 3-5 favourite, askew from the gates and careering left at the break, tracked the leaders in fourth before surging forward into a handy third approaching halfway. Looming large hard on the bridle in early straight, she eased ahead passing the quarter-mile marker and quickened clear in highly encouraging fashion inside the final furlong to easily outclass Vanina Runway (Zelzal) by an impressive eight-length margin.

“This filly has quality, she had been working well in the mornings and I was expecting something nice on this debut,” admitted Graffard. “So, to sum it up, it is not a surprise and I think she has some future.”

 

Another nice type for the @AgaKhanStuds! 👀
