Plumania shaped with promise when fourth behind "TDN Rising Star" Ana Americana (Fr) on debut at Deauville Aug. 5 and confirmed that initial impression with a performance that oozed class in this second go. Settled last of the five runners for the most part, the 1-2 favorite was coaxed along in early stretch and quickened smartly on the outside in the closing stages to easily account for Peach Pearl (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) by much more than the official margin of one length would imply. The winner is half to Balladeuse (Fr) (Singspiel {Ire}), GSP-Fr. Lifetime Record: 2 starts, 1 win, 1 place, €20,400.
