NIZAM (FR) (c, 2, Pinatubo {Ire}-Nausha {GB} {GSW-Eng & SP-Fr, $107,130}, by Kingman {GB}), an Oct. 10 debut winner over 7 1/2 furlongs at Saint-Cloud last time, was steadied to race in fourth after the initial strides here. Taking closer order once into the home straight, the 9-10 favourite swooped for control approaching the final furlong and lengthened clear in the closing stages to defeat Miss Lacouma (Ire) (Calyx {GB}) by two lengths. Nizam is the lone reported foal produced by G3 Musidora Stakes victrix Nausha (GB) (Kingman {GB}), herself a half-sister to G3 March Stakes runner-up Nagano (GB) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}). The April-foaled homebred bay's unraced second dam Nazym (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) is kin to Group 1-winning matriarchs Listen (Ire) (Sadler's Wells) and Sequoyah (Ire) (Sadler's Wells). Lifetime TDNSon of Pinatubo remains unbeaten in style 09/11
