TAAREEF, 123, c, 3, by Kitten’s Joy
1st Dam: Sacred Feather, by Carson City
2nd Dam: Marianna’s Girl, by Dewan
3rd Dam: Marianna Trench, by Pago Pago (Aus)
($675,000 Ylg ‘14 KEESEP). O-Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum; B-Dixiana Farms LLC (KY); T-Jean-Claude Rouget; J-Ioritz Mendizabal. €114,000. Lifetime Record: 7-4-1-0, €223,000.
Successful in the nine-furlong G3 Prix Daphnis here June 22 before finishing fourth behind Almanzor (Fr) (Wootton Bassett {Ire}) in the G2 Prix Guillaume d’Ornano over an extra furlong at Deauville Aug. 15, Taareef was clear-best here for a career high. Settled in fourth early, the 18-5 shot overhauled the long-time leader Hello My Love (Fr) (Literato {Fr}) with 300 metres remaining before drawing away to win by 1 3/4 lengths, with a short neck back to Moonlight Magic (GB) (Cape Cross {Ire}) in third. “He’s a very consistent horse and he moved well with the ground on the soft side, but he’s better on fast," trainer Jean-Claude Rouget said. “I don’t know what will happen now, but I’d like to keep him in training next year. We shall see."
