Look De Vega won the Qatar Prix du Jockey Club for Yann Lerner and Carlos, continuing his unblemished record.
The colt entered the event having won two easy races earlier, making him one of the market leaders along with Aidan O'Brien's Diego Velazquez.
He started strong from the stalls and moved up behind Ronan Thomas's leading runners, holding his powder dry until the home straight, when other riders began to fade.
Subsequently, he took the lead, rapidly overtaking First Look in the last two furlongs to cross the finish line comfortably ahead of them.
After Sosie finished in third place and the Clive Cox-trained Ghostwriter in fourth, the field was completed by Diego Velazquez and David Menuisier's Sunway.
“The only thing we were a little bit worried about is that he came out of stall number three and everything had to go right at that moment,” said Yann Lerner. “But when I saw him get into that good position, I have never watched a race as relaxed as I did this one. When we won at Fontainebleau (in November) we immediately thought about this race, he had a more or less perfect winter until February, when we had a little bit of a setback, that was the only dark point in the past. What is incredible is his mental state, we hadn’t worked with him a lot since his first seasonal reappearance. Between the two races he didn’t do much, we took him to the Chantilly track because it was essential to us that he could see the track.”
For the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, Look De Vega was lowered from 33-1 to 8-1 with Coral, and Lerner commented on the possibility of racing there: “At the moment we don’t have any plans whatsoever, this was the big plan and he confirmed today what we thought of him. We will go home and recover and see how he is after this race, however, he does have an entry in the Arc and I think he can stay the mile and a half, absolutely no doubt. The Arc can be a very tricky race and he can adapt to those conditions, he is a horse that ticks all the right boxes because he has shown today what he can do in the future.”
