Night Of Thunder’s Sunly Regains the Winning Thread in Saint-Cloud’s Allez France

Wait 5 sec.

Juddmonte homebred Sunly (Night Of Thunder) had been on an extended sabbatical after surrendering her perfect record in last July's G2 Prix de Malleret and bounced back on seasonal return to regain the winning thread in Friday's G3 Prix Allez France at Saint-Cloud.The Francis Graffard trainee went postward as the 12-5 joint-favourite and settled into a smooth rhythm, racing off the pace in sixth for Christophe Soumillon, after the initial exchanges of this 11-furlong test.Making eyecatching headway out wide once into the straight, she quickened into contention with 300 metres remaining and found plenty under whipless coaxing to overpower stablemate Tajlina (Kingman) by an ultimately comfortable 1 1/4 lengths.Pedigree NotesSunly, one of her sire's 43 Group winners, is the fourth of seven foals and leading performer for multiple Graded-winning GI E P Taylor Stakes second Suffused (Champs Elysees), herself kin to four stakes performers headed by G1 St Leger winner Logician (Frankel).Suffused is also a half-sister to the dam of dual GI Diana Stakes heroine Whitebeam (Caravaggio) while her stakes-placed dam Scuffle (Daylami) is a half-sister to sires Cityscape (Selkirk) and Bated Breath (Dansili).The winner is a half-sister to the unraced two-year-old colt Charged (Kingman) and a yearling colt by Kingman.  Sunly is back in style to land the Group 3 Prix Allez France for @GraffardRacing & Christophe Soumillon… pic.twitter.com/EoSWUosA1W— At The Races (@AtTheRaces) May 1, 2026The post Night Of Thunder’s Sunly Regains the Winning Thread in Saint-Cloud’s Allez France appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
