BETWEEN (FR) (f, 2, Seahenge–Claire Song {Ire} {MSP-Ity, $100,843}, by Singspiel {Ire}), fifth on debut over six furlongs at Saint-Cloud May 17, broke well to track the leading duo early. Delivered to the front passing the furlong pole, the 21-10 favourite was green in the clear but stayed on to score by 4 1/2 lengths from Mrs Pink (Fr) (Recorder {GB}).

Between is currently the last known foal out of the dam, whose family includes the dual Oaks-winning champion Sariska (GB) (Pivotal {GB}). Sales history: €10,000 Ylg '21 ARQOCT.
