A race for unraced 2-year-olds, always highly coveted, the Prix de la Reine Blanche offers us a pair of good fillies, who will undoubtedly have black type ambitions soon. The winner Polyvega (Lope de Vega) finds her day on the rope in the final phase, and sprints very hard with Maxime Guyon to reach the post in complete peace in front of the excellent finisher Apollo Fountain (No Nay Never). Trained by Carlos Laffon Parias for the Wertheimer brothers, Polyvega should immediately move up in category and reveals strong potential from its first steps. She is a daughter of the champion Polydream, winner of a Maurice de Gheest Prize for the same coat.
