The daughter of SIYOUNI DREAM AND DO battled to the line to prevail in the Gr.1 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches. Positioned behind the leader, the filly swoop to the front with a furlong to go and held on gamely to hold off the charge of Speak Of The Devil. Her jockey Maxime Guyon said after the race: "I am really happy with that. I think I got her beaten in the prep race at Longchamp in asking her to go a bit too soon. This is a 1,600 metres that really plays to speed. She has a really serious turn of foot."
DREAM AND DO was having her sixth start and has never finished outside of the first two. The winner of the Gr.3 Prix Miesque at two, she placed second by half a length in the Gr.3 Prix de la Grotte on seasonal debut.
Bred by her owner, Haras du Logis Saint Germain, DREAM AND DO gave her trainer Frédéric Rossi a first Classic success and becomes the fourth Group 1 winner of her sire SIYOUNI. The Haras de Bonneval sire is no stranger to the success in the first French Classic race of the season, having already sired ERVEDYA who won the race five years ago.
