The Nicolas Clément-trained Juana Ines (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}–Wild Irish Rose {Ire}, by Galileo {Ire}) will go under the hammer in a Pop-Up Sale on Arqana Online July 31. Bidding will take place between 5-6 p.m. (local time, not including extra time).
Running in the colours of Stephen Michael Akers, the 3-year-old filly showed a lot of promise when scoring over 2,200 metres at Clairefontaine last time on her second outing.
Out of the listed scorer Wild Irish Rose, she hails from the family of Group 1 winners, including Hellenic, Islington, Greek Dance, Mountain High and Fiorente.
Clément commented, “She's a very well-bred filly by a leading sire. She is late maturing but is progressing and improving all the time. She won easily the other day when beating a filly that has a rating of 86. I'm confident for the future–she should be able to move up the categories without any problem and with success.”
