Haras d'Etreham's first-season sire Hello Youmzain (Fr) (by Kodiac {GB}) was off the mark on Tuesday as his daughter Allee De Bercy (Fr) scored on debut in Chantilly's five-furlong Prix de la Mere Marie. Sent off at 16-1, the Alessandro and Giuseppe Botti trainee raced behind the leading pair early for Ioritz Mendizabal before finding her way to the front inside the last 150 metres. Driven out from there, she recorded a short-neck success from Cendre (GB) (Goken {Fr}).
The winner is so far the only foal out of a daughter of the listed-placed Gyrella (Ire) (Oasis Dream {GB}) responsible for the G2 Prix Greffulhe winner Baby Rider (Fr) (Gleneagles {Ire}). This is the family of the Derby hero Wings Of Eagles (Fr) (Pour Moi {Ire}) and the G1 Prix Saint-Alary heroine Belle Et Celebre (Fr) (Peintre Celebre).
