Prix De Diane Runner-Up Survie To Be Offered At The Sceptre Sessions

[Wandering Eyes]

Survie, runner-up by a head in the G1 Prix de Diane, will be offered during the Sceptre Sessions at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale from December 1-3. She will sell as lot 1723 on Tuesday, December 2.

The daughter of Churchill will be consigned by co-trainers Nicolas Clement and Frauke Hermans on behalf of owners China Horse Club International and Gerard Augustin-Normand. A winner of the G2 Prix de Malleret at three, the four-year-old was third in the G1 Pretty Polly Stakes, second in the G1 Prix Jean Romanet and fourth in the G1 Prix Vermeille this year. She currently holds a Timeform rating of 114.

Out of the listed winner and G2 Prix de Royallieu-placed Sotteville (Le Havre), this is the family of G1 Champion Stakes winner King Of Steel and Australian champion Contributer.

Clement said, “We are consigning a jewel. She has been the star of the stable and was just beaten a head in a French Classic. She is a top-of-the-ground filly who has been very consistent throughout her career, being Group 1 placed on three occasions including in the Pretty Polly and Prix Jean Romanet. She is one of the very best fillies in Europe and whether to breed or race, I'm sure she'll make somebody happy. We'll be sad to see her go.”

Added Tattersalls chairman Edmond Mahony, “Survie is a very attractive, high-class race filly who could easily have won the Prix de Diane. She offers buyers an opportunity to buy not just an outstanding racehorse to race on, but also a filly who looks an exceptional broodmare prospect. We are honoured to be asked to offer her in the Sceptre Sessions at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale where she joins a growing cast of top class race fillies and broodmares.”
