Daryz Emulates Half-Brother Dariyan to Win Eugene Adam

[Wandering Eyes]

The Aga Khan Studs operation had not celebrated success in Saint-Cloud's G2 Prix Eugene Adam since Dariyan (Shanardal) saluted in 2015, but rectified matters after the hithero unbeaten Daryz (Sea The Stars) defeated five rivals in Sunday's renewal of the 10-furlong contest.

Racing under a firm hold behind the leading duo for the most part, the even-money favourite quickened to the fore inside the final furlong and was ridden out to comfortably outpoint last year's G2 Champagne Stakes victor Bay City Roller (New Bay) by 3/4-of-a-length. Andre Fabre trainee Sinileo (Siyouni) ran on well from off the pace to finish a neck adrift in third.

 

What a talent he is!
