Set Alight’s smashing victory in the Kingfisher Bangalore Derby (Gr.1) provided Razeen, her sire, with many more feathers to adorn a cap which is in danger of being submerged by the size of the plume ! She broke the track record which stood to the credit of her own paternal half-brother Star Supreme; hers was the widest winning margin in the race; and, she was a record seventh winner of the race to have been sired by Razeen.
It was, however, her previous race -- the Fillies’ Trial Stakes (Gr.1) - in which she enabled Razeen to reach his century of Classic wins and thus get to a significant landmark. It’s the first time in the annals of the Indian breeding history that a stallion’s progeny has won a hundred Classics. Set Alight, it would seem, was destined to bestow the honour on her sire because it was Yana who actually went past the post for the hundredth time in a Classic, only to be disqualified subsequently for testing positive later.
