Eblouissante, Zenyatta's half-sister, breezes four furlongs on Dec. 2nd

Eblouissante, a three-year-old half-sister to 2010 Horse of the Year Zenyatta, returned to the work tab for the first time since breaking her maiden when she breezed a half-mile in :52.40 on December 2nd.

Trained by John Shirreffs, the daughter of Bernardini out of Vertigineux by Kris S. made headlines on November 16th when she rocketed to victory in a 1 1/16th miles maiden special weight at Betfair Hollywood Park. Next-to-last during the early stages of the race, she circled the field on the far outside in a fashion eerily similar to her famous sister, eventually drawing away to win the race by 4 1/4 lengths.

Her breeze was ranked forty-fifth out of the forty-seven works of the morning at that distance. She is expected to race once more during the Hollywood Park meet, which concludes on December 16th.
