Alpine Star (Ire) (Sea the Moon {Ger}), winner of the Coronation S. in June, will not race again this year and instead enjoy some time off. The Niarchos Family runner was runner-up in three consecutive Group 1s following her Ascot score-the July 5 Prix de Diane Longines, the Aug. 16 Prix Jacques le Marois and the Prix de l’Opera Longines on Arc Day, Oct. 4.

“She ran another blinder in the Opera,” said the Niarchos family’s racing manager Alan Cooper of the Jessica Harrington trainee. “She’s a tough, honest and very high-class filly. We’ll put her away now and bring her back for a 4-year-old campaign next season. She’s very consistent and hopefully there’ll be more Group 1 races for her.

“It will be interesting to see what Jessie decides regarding trip next year. She seems equally capable over a mile and a mile and a quarter at the moment, which is very exciting.”
