In command throughout, the 27-10 second favourite was shaken up passing the quarter-mile marker and kept on strongly under mainly whipless rousting inside the final 300 metres to easily hold Roi De La Liberte (Kingman) by 1 1/2 lengths, becoming the first winner for trainer Lavinia Fabre.Wadi is the ninth of 11 foals and sixth scorer out of a winning half-sister to five black-type performers headed by three-time Grade I winner Master Of The Seas (Dubawi). His second dam is stakes-winning G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches runner-up Firth Of Lorne (Danehill). The March-foaled bay is a half-brother to G1 Metropolitan Handicap victor Just Fine (Sea The Stars) and this term's G1 Grosser Dallmayr-Preis hero Tornado Alert (Too Darn Hot). He is also kin to a yearling filly by Zoustar, a weanling colt by Sea The Stars and to the dam of Listed King Charles II Stakes runner-up Bold Style (Shamardal).
