CIMA TRIUMPHS IN BRIGADIER

By Tom Peacock, PA Sport

Cima De Triomphe (4-1) just prevailed from Conduit in a desperately tight finish to the Blue Square Brigadier Gerard Stakes at Sandown.

Making his seasonal return, St Leger and Breeders' Cup hero Conduit did virtually everything right, steadily picking up passing the three furlong marker and fighting off the challenge of 15-8 favourite Pipedreamer, who looked all over the winner at one stage before seemingly running out of gas and not making the frame.

All the while, however, Christophe Lemaire was getting his Luca Cumani-trained four-year-old into top gear and the pair got there right on the line to score by a nose in receipt of 7lb from the runner-up.

Stotsfold was a further length back in third.

Conduit ran better than I expected him to over a trip short of his best.

I love Conduit... nice to see this boy get a win though.

(See I don't always root for Godolphin).

Full results...

I had a lot of faith in conduit today and backed accordingly! He will be much better this year than last year and always thought he could be competitive over 10. My betting has been terribly frustrating recently!

I was very, very keen on Pipedreamer. He stopped like he had been shot though. Perhaps he does need a return to a mile. The yard were very confident today, and to see him run like that will have many people scartching their heads in Newmarket tonight.

Haven't seen the race yet but he should defo be tried over a mile. The owners do have Virtual but they are known to race their own.
