MATEMATICA (GER) (f, 3, Rock of Gibraltar {Ire}–Mathematicienne {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}), a nose second going one mile at ParisLongchamp in her Sept. 2 unveiling before filling the same spot over that course and distance in the Oct. 7 G1 Prix Marcel Boussac last time, was well away to assert for the lead after the initial strides of this sophomore return. Nudged along on the front approaching the quarter-mile marker, the 3-5 chalk was never in danger and kept on relentlessly under whipless rousting in the latter stages to easily account for Morning Dew (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}) by three lengths. She is one of three stakes performers and the third scorer from as many foals produced by a winning daughter of Listed Prix Occitanie victress Never Green (Ire) (Halling), herself kin to six black-type performers headed by G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine Solemia (Ire) (Poliglote {GB}). The homebred bay is a half-sister to G3 Prix d’Aumale-winning G1 Prix Saint-Alary third Soustraction (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}), dual stakes placegetter Guerriere (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), the 2-year-old filly Euclidia (Fr) (Maxios {GB}) and the yearling filly Calculatrice (Ire) (Manduro {Ger}). Lifetime Record: 3-1-2-0, €111,840. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
