West Wind Blows, a three-year-old son of Teofilo, recorded his first Group victory on Sunday, 4 September when landing the G3 Prix du Prince d’Orange. Run over 2000m at ParisLongchamp, the freely-sweating colt swept down the outside in the straight to win by one and three quarter lengths.
West Wind Blows is one of five winners bred by the G1 Prix de Diane heroine West Wind. From the extended family of Thunder Snow, West Wind also has a colt foal by Masar and is in foal to Too Darn Hot this season.
Teofilo is enjoying a magnificent 2022 with G1 victor Nations Pride and yesterday’s impressive juvenile Naval Power two of his 11 Stakes winners. He is also the broodmare sire of the English 1,000 and 2,000 Guineas winners (Cachet and Coroebus), the G1 Preis der Diana heroine (Toskana Belle), the German 2,000 Guineas winner Maljoom, and G1 Prix d’Ispahan and Prix du Moulin victress Dreamloper.
