   Hurricane Ivor (Ire) (Ivawood {Ire}) undertook lengthy shoe adjustments in the preliminaries leading up to Friday’s Prix d’Orgemont at Chantilly and emerged from the straight five-furlong dash with ‘TDN Rising Star’ status after pulverising his rivals hard held. The bay was sharply away from the outside stall to gain immediate control of this debut. Unflustered on the front end throughout, the well-backed 3-5 favourite was nudged along with 350 metres remaining and on cruise control under a near-motionless Pierre-Charles Boudot inside the final furlong to hit the line an impressive 7 1/2 lengths clear of Equinozio (Ire) (Equiano {Fr}).
   Hurricane Ivor, who becomes the third winner for his freshman sire (by Zebedee {GB}), is the second foal and first winner out of an unraced half-sister to G3 Silver Flash S. second Take A Deep Breath (GB) (Bated Breath {GB}). His third dam is MGSW G2 Prix du Gros-Chene speedster Millyant (GB) (Primo Dominie {GB}), herself the dam of dual G3 Prix du Petit Couvert victor Mirza (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) and the three-times stakes-placed Millybaa (Anabaa).
