Un de Sceaux’s victory here provided yet another reminder that French jumping breeders have often made good use of stallions who would never have been given a chance in Britain or Ireland. His sire Denham Red had raced 15 times on the Flat by the time he made a winning debut over hurdles at Auteuil in the May of his three-year-old season. His record in those 15 starts stood at five seconds and three thirds but no victories. Fortunately for this son of the very smart miler Pampabird, the addition of obstacles made a big difference. Denham Red’s record at three stood at three wins and two seconds from five starts, one of his seconds being against Villez in the Grande Course de Haies des 3 Ans. Villez continued to be Denham Red’s nemesis the following year, when the Pampabird colt finished second in four of his five starts, his final effort being a close defeat by Villez in the Prix Alain de Breil. Denham Red wasn’t extensively used, with fewer than 200 foals in his first 14 crops of racing age. He also sired Oculi, a dual Gr1 winner over fences as a four-year-old, but Un de Sceaux has strong claims to being his best effort. Except for a fall when heading for victory on his chasing debut, he would still be unbeaten. Un de Sceaux follows the smart chaser Trifolium and the juvenile hurdler Bristol de Mai as the third British or Irish Gr1 winner out of a mare by April Night, a versatile performer who scored at up to 15 furlongs in winning 18 times. Un de Sceaux’s dam Hotesse de Sceaux never finished closer than sixth in eight starts and the next dam was an Anglo-Arab.

Pistolet Bleu

As a newly-turned five-year-old mare, Gitane du Berlais was in receipt of 11lb from her older male rivals here, but no-one could begrudge her a decisive victory on only her second start over fences. As she has won both starts over fences, she looks set to eclipse her hurdling efforts, even though they included a Listed win at Aintree and Gr3 score at Fairyhouse. In the February 2014 issue, after Gitane du Berlais’ Listed win, I advised making a note of Balko. Although his eldest progeny were only six at that stage, he had already been represented by very useful chasers Michto and Fago. There was also reason to think they could just be the tip of the iceberg, as Balko has some sizeable crops in the pipeline, with around 70 foals in his 2012 crop and even more the following year. A son of Pistolet Bleu, Balko raced exclusively over jumps, winning nine of his 19 starts. His six successes over hurdles included a G2 at Auteuil and he also won two key chases there, including the Gr2 Prix Congress. The best Gitane du Berlais’s dam could manage in ten races was a third place over hurdles at Auteuil. But her first three foals are winners and her 2011 Poliglote colt Tzigane du Berlais is worth watching. Second dam Cindy Cad managed only one win from 32 starts, over hurdles at Auteuil. But she was by supersire Cadoudal, which made her a sister to good French jumpers Tenerific and Falcon Crest. Cindy Cad’s best progeny was very useful chaser Baraka du Berlais.

Everyone is playing catch up with King’s Just as in 2014, King’s Theatre is at the head of affairs, but with a much greater advantage. His lead over Presenting is a shade more than £700,000, whereas a year ago he had £260,000 in hand over Beneficial. He has had a magnificent season, with 12 stakes winners from fewer runners than the next five in the list. They are headed by G1 Tolworth Hurdle winner L’Ami Serge, also successful in a G2, plus old standby Menorah (G2), The New One (two G2s), Southfield Theatre (one G2) and Little King Robin (one G2 among seven victories). Novice hurdler Morning Run is six from six including twice in G3s. Menorah apart, none of the horses mentioned are older than seven, so the immediate future looks rosy, especially as King’s Theatre’s final crop is only three; more than 50 of his penultimate crop went through the ring in 2014. Presenting is up there as always but has had only four stakes winners. In that category Beneficial is on nine and Oscar on seven, the same as top British-based sire Kayf Tara. Milan and Westerner are the youngest in the leading group. The former has had one stakes winner from 262 runners, Westerner five from 150.
