Via Tom Fry
Unleash his deadly acceleration to full effect in Paris TDN Rising Star Onesto (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) stormed for big time at the G1 Grand Prix de Paris on Thursday. This kind of performance looked at the cards after his dazzling win in the G2 Prix Greffulhe 10 1/2 long game at Saint-Cloud on 8 May and the highly commendable effort from the epic draw. quirky as he finished fifth in the Prix du Jockey-Club and the puppet-trained Fabrice Chestnut, who sported the color of Gerard Augustin-Normand for the first time, was loved by fans 10-3. Anchored last early by Stephane Pasquier who ran free to post, he proved perfectly capable of leading the way in the race and conserving energy for the boom that was his trademark of the ride. This 12-stroke ride is sure to play to his full potential. Producing the penultimate part 11.09 to overhaul the longtime leader Simca Mille (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}) away from home, the first group 1 winner for his breeder Diamond Creek Farm denied that the opponent was rallying by a neck, with the Prix du Jockey-Club runner-up. El Bodegon (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) 2 1/2 lengths back at third.
