Tiffany broke the jinx and finally captured her long-sought G1 triumph

After three consecutive runner-up finishes in Germany's biggest events, Sir Mark Prescott's mare secured her maiden top-level victory by capturing the Grosser Preis von Berlin (G1), capping off a campaign defined by sheer perseverance

BERLIN, Germany—the fourth time was the charm for Tiffany. after being turned away on the threshold of glory in three previous attempts across Germany's flagship events, Sir Mark Prescott's pupil finally got her rewarded persistence, taking home the Westminster 136. Grosser Preis von Berlin (G1-2,400 m) to score her elusive maiden victory at the highest level.

campaigning for Elite Racing, the 17-10 favorite was forced to work early under Luke Morris to establish a ground-saving spot along the inside, sitting mid-pack for much of the running. once turned into the long home straight, however, her signature late acceleration came alive.

launches a sustained rally inside the final stages, the daughter of Farhh took charge inside the final 50 meters and showed tremendous heart to deny the surging late challenge of Bright Light (City Light), holding on by a neck. half a length further back, the indefatigable Dubai Future (Dubawi), one of international racing's ironclad veterans, filled the trifecta.

the triumph tasted sweet for Tiffany, who had accumulated a frustrating string of near-misses in German top-tier events. she had finished second in both the 2024 and 2025 editions of the Grosser Preis von Bayern, alongside another runner-up effort in a major local contest. this afternoon, the prize she pursued so relentlessly was finally hers.

the victory also reinforced the durability of a mare who had already demonstrated top-flight ability when capturing the T. von Zastrow Stutenpreis at Baden-Baden two seasons prior, though she was still missing that defining G1 breakthrough to seal her legacy.

from a breeding perspective, Tiffany stems from one of the UK outfit's most bedrock stallion families. she becomes the fourth top-level winner for her sire Farhh, being out of Affinity, a Sadler's Wells mare who is a half-sister to the brilliant five-time G1 heroine Soviet Song (Marju), one of the standout European mares of her generation.

the family continues to yield high-class performers across the globe. among her close relatives are champions like Marsha (Acclamation), winner of the Nunthorpe Stakes (G1) and Prix de l'Abbaye (G1); Ribbons (Manduro), who landed the Prix Jean Romanet (G1); and Soulcombe (Frankel), runner-up in the Melbourne Cup (G1).

it is a line that now pens another prestigious chapter thanks to Tiffany, a mare who built her career on consistency and ultimately delivered the G1 victory her resume had so long demanded.
