Our three-time champion sire SOLDIER HOLLOW is attracting more and more attention in France this year, and ROSACEA, owned and bred by Haras de la Perelle, plays a not insignificant role in this. Today the filly gave our champion a huge success at Chantilly!
In the 1 million Euro Prix de Diane, the most coveted trophy for three-year-old fillies in France, the SOLDIER HOLLOW daughter finished in a fantastic third place.
Like in her last start, the protégé of Stephane Wattel was a bit unlucky and did not find a passage in the final straight for a long time. Jockey Christophe Soumillon had to meander ROSACEA through the field to find her some room, and when she finally had it, she put up an incredibly strong late run and earned the second place money with huge speed.
