“Great natural speed and the attitude of a warrior” Stephane Wattel

Competitive from 2 to 5 years old at Gr.1 level over distances from 6 to 7 furlongs,
City Light is the only son of Siyouni with Gr.1 form over 6 furlongs. 

He was successful in the Gr.3 Prix de Saint-Georges and Prix du Pin,
was beaten just a short head in the Gr.1 Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot,
and finished second to three-time victrix One Master in the Gr.1 Prix de la Forêt. 

City Light is a vector of the speed genes carried by Siyouni, Kendor and Luthier
which have had such an important influence on French bloodstock. 

Thanks to strong support from shareholders and from many of France’s leading breeders, City Light covered 137 mares in his first season,
119 in 2021 and 112 in 2022. His book for 2023 already features 120 mares. 

His first yearlings proved popular, selling for prices reaching 85,000€ , 80,000€...

Feedback from the trainers of his first crop is extremely positive, further boosting the appeal of the speediest son of Siyouni at stud,
who registered a top price of 160,000€ at ARQANA’s Breeze Up Sale. 

City Light is represented by 90 first-crop juveniles in 2023,
including individuals trained by Henri-Alex Pantall, Stéphane Wattel, Fabrice Chappet, Henri-François Devin, 
Tim Donworth, Carlos and Yann Lerner, Philippe Sogorb, etc.
