Es Aristocrático Delivers a Performance Deserving of Even Greater Respect…

The son of Angiolo was relentless in the Clásico Club Hípico de Chile, racking up three straight wins as he targets the Ciudad de La Plata

Es Aristocrático Drew Off with Notable Authority in the Stretch/ HLP

LA PLATA.- Es Aristocrático (Angiolo) delivered a devastating display of speed and authority Saturday at Palermo, storming home to an emphatic victory in the Clásico Club Hípico de Tandil (1200m, dirt) and stamping himself as one of the leading candidates for the upcoming G2 Clásico Ciudad de La Plata, the premier one-turn contest of the season to be staged Nov. 19 as part of the G1 Gran Premio Dardo Rocha program.

Firmly settled in the sprint division after an unsuccessful attempt at stretching out to the mile, the Haras Tres Jotas-bred 5-year-old toyed with his six rivals to post his seventh career win and third consecutive score.

Guided by Gonzalo Borda for trainer Marcelo Sueldo (presented by Juan Pablo E. Díaz), and carrying the in-form colors of Stud Pauli, Es Aristocrático tracked Lo Dejo Todo (Le Blues) and Normando Lu (Lunático Emperor) early, advanced around the turn as the latter gave way, struck the front at the head of the lane and drew off with ease.

The margin was a commanding five lengths over Lo Dejo Todo, with Le Massif (Le Ken) another five back in third. Final time was a sharp 1:09.96 after fractions of :23.34 and :46.46, underscoring the honest pace throughout.

Already a dual stakes winner at La Plata—with victories in the G3 Uberto F. Vignart and L Jockey Club Argentino—Es Aristocrático continues to enhance a pedigree laced with speed. Though out of a mare that produced talented stayer Salonika (Roman Ruler), his family includes top-level performers such as Irina (Ringaro), Sebastiano (Southern Halo), his own sire Angiolo (Grand Reward), Madonna Benois (Angiolo), and fellow 2025 sprinter Sonreime (Orpen).

Runner-up to El Mejor Recuerdo (Il Campione) in last year’s Ciudad de La Plata, Es Aristocrático will be back for revenge in a few weeks’ time—and this time, turning him back may prove a much tougher task.
