Andre Fabre nominee Segall (Sottsass) had failed in three starts since attaining TDN Rising Star status at Saint-Cloud in June, but bounced back from a reversal in last month's Listed Prix Maurice Caillault to secure the trainer's record-extending tenth renewal in Sunday's G3 Prix La Force at ParisLongchamp.Patiently ridden at the tail of the six-runner field for most of the nine-furlong contest, the 89-10 chance inched ever closer in the home straight and weaved a charmed passage between rivals inside the final furlong to deny fellow Rising Star and stablemate Zaraki (Zarak) by a half-length in the dying strides for a career high.Pedigree NotesSegall is the latest of four registered foals and one of three scorers from as many runners produced by G2 Rockfel Stakes victrix Spain Burg (Sageburg), herself out of a multiple-winning half-sister to Listed Swedish Open Mile runner-up Cyber World (Robin Des Pins). Descendants of the February-foaled bay's multiple Group-placed fourth dam Lightning Fire (Kris), winner of the Listed Prix Imprudence, include GII All Along Stakes victrix Beyrouth (Alleged) and stakes-winning G2 Sun Chariot Stakes and GII E P Taylor Stakes placegetter Flame Valley (Gulch). Lightning Fire is a full-sister to G1 Prix de la Salamandre-winning sire Common Grounds and kin to multiple Grade I-placed G3 Prix de Psyche winner Angel In My Heart (Rainbow Quest), herself the dam of G1 Derby hero Kris Kin (Kris S.).
