Bailarín de Venecia remains in untouchable form and captured again the Clásico Cyllene

The son of Angiolo shattered a tough group of rivals on the turf and will now target the Gran Premio Suipacha (G1)... And a showdown with Le Cornette...

What Bailarín de Venecia is currently doing on the track is nothing short of breathtaking. As if his previous achievements weren't enough of a statement, this Friday he delivered another masterclass performance, capturing his fourth consecutive stakes victory.

Wire to wire, dominating a formidable group of rivals as if they were novices, the dark bay colt from Stud El Perejilclaimed the Clásico Cyllene (G2) for the second year in a row. The main feature of the card at the Hipódromo de San Isidro, the race served as the final prep toward the upcoming Gran Premio Suipacha (G1).

The connections of Le Cornette (Emmanuel)—the notable absentee here and the reigning division leader among the country's sprinters—surely took note of the superlative form displayed by the son of Angiolo, who appears equally capable of flying on dirt or turf. While the chestnut sprinter has never lost to the dark bay, there is always a first time, and the current momentum suggests the team behind Bailarín de Venecia has every reason to dream.

Partnered with jockey Brian Enrique, he broke like a rocket, seized the middle of the track, and early on made the outcome feel like a foregone conclusion. While his stride remained remarkably fluid and consistent, the chasing pack was forced into early effort to close the gap, though none could make any meaningful impact.

Maintaining a steady tempo, the favorite held strong through the line to secure a 1 1/2-length victory over the veteran Camuflaje (Orpen), who ran a commendable race. A half-length further back, Naranccello (Le Blues) completed the trifecta in a solid third, followed closely in a tight bunch by Claro Bombón (Claro Oscuro), the 3-year-old November Rain (Strategos), Lyon (Lenovo), and Fox Embrujado (Storm Embrujado).

Adding a picture-perfect finish to his performance, Bailarín de Venecia stopped the clock in 55.88s on a firm turf course.

Conditioned by Walter Suárez and María Fernanda Alvarez, and bred by Haras Tres Jotas, the Roman Rulergrandson recorded his ninth victory in 19 starts—his sixth in stakes company—pushing his career earnings past the 85-million-peso mark.

Now, the Gran Premio Suipacha and Le Cornette await. He will head to the big clash riding high on confidence.
