Kingman Filly On Top In the Imprudence

[Wandering Eyes]

There was another minor upset at Deauville in Thursday as the G3 Prix Imprudence went the way of the 18-1 shot Reina Madre (Ire) (Kingman {GB}). Sporting the silks of the Leopoldo Fernandez Pujals and his Yeguada Centurion operation which is set to become a familiar presence in this country, the Mauricio Delcher Sanchez trainee had last been seen finishing fourth in the Premio Gran Criterium in Madrid in October and entered this Classic prep something of an enigma. Settled with two behind early by Christophe Soumillon, the bay who was also runner-up in the Listed Grand Criterium de Bordeaux in early October stayed on strongly to reel in Sky Angel (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) in the last 50 metres for a short-neck success, with Louliana (Ire) (Acclamation {GB}) 1 1/2 lengths behind in third. “She was a very useful 2-year-old last year and had run a very good race in Bordeaux, but maybe she was a little bit gone in her last race in Madrid,” Delcher Sanchez commented. “She's been with me for only three months and I could appreciate the quality in her morning work–she is definitely a very nice filly and everyone can see she hasn't quite blossomed yet, which leads me to think there is room for improvement. It'll most probably be the [G1 Poule d'Essai des] Pouliches [at ParisLongchamp May 16] next.”
