Four Wildcards Added to the Arqana Arc Sale

[Wandering Eyes]

Four wildcards have been added to the catalogue for the Arqana Arc Sale and will go under the hammer at Saint-Cloud Racecourse on Saturday, October 5.

They include the Hedi Ghabri-trained Al Jafara (GB) (lot 21), who shed her maiden tag at the second attempt at Chantilly earlier this month. The two-year-old daughter of Pinatubo (Ire) is out of a full-sister to the Oaks heroine Qualify (Ire) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) and hails from the family of Group 1 winners such as Brian Boru (GB) and Workforce (GB).

Alessandro and Giuseppe Botti's Presage Nocturne (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) will be offered as lot 22 after his third-place finish in the G3 Prix Gladiateur at Longchamp, while fellow three-year-old Shootout (Ire) (Areion {Ger}), lot 35, produced a career best on his most recent outing when filling the runner-up spot in the G3 Kölner Sprint Trophy at Cologne.

Finally, Yann Barberot will offer Ci Mer (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) as lot 36. The three-year-old filly followed her first career victory at Saint-Cloud in June with a fourth-place finish in the G3 Prix Chloe at Chantilly.
