Fresh blacktype as Romanised continues his winning run

Romanised continued his strong run of results this week, highlighted by a new blacktype performance from CIELO DI ROMA in the Prix Omnium II (Listed) at Saint-Cloud, alongside victories from THE BEST GLORY and SISSI IMPERATRICE on French tracks.

Trained by Gianluca Bietolini, CIELO DI ROMA finished third in the Listed Prix Omnium II over 1,600 metres at Saint-Cloud. Ridden by Théo Bachelot, the three-year-old colt stayed on well in testing ground to secure another blacktype placing.

Out of the Dark Angel mare Suestar, CIELO DI ROMA was bred by S.A.S. Haute Vallée and C. Hutchinson and races in the colours of Mike Pietrangelo, Mag Horse Racing SRL, Sean Downes and Christopher Bledsoe. Already a Listed winner at two in the Prix Zeddaan at Deauville, the colt continues to advertise the quality of Romanised’s second crop.

Earlier in the week, THE BEST GLORY made a winning seasonal return in the Prix de Burdigala over 1,200 metres at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat. Ridden by Samy Le Quilleuc for trainer Allan Estrabol, the daughter of Romanised showed her speed to defeat maryzia by two and a half lengths.

Bred by Robert Ng out of the Acclamation mare Wondrous Scene, THE BEST GLORY had already shown ability at two with two victories, including on debut at Tarbes, before competing in Listed company later in the season. Her Bordeaux success suggests she could continue to progress at three.

Romanised’s second winner of the week came courtesy of SISSI IMPERATRICE, who landed the Prix de la Midouze, a 1,600-metre handicap at Mont-de-Marsan. Trained by Frédéric Sanchez and ridden by Clément Cadel, the four-year-old filly battled gamely to prevail by a narrow margin from garmi.

SISSI IMPERATRICE, out of Dont Teutch by Country Reel, was bred by the succession of H. de Talhouet-Roy and races in the colours of Jean-Pierre Vanden Heede and Frédéric Sanchez.

With a new blacktype performer and two further winners added to his tally this week, Romanised continues to build momentum as his progeny deliver consistent results on the track.
