CLAIRE DE LUNE (IRE) (Galileo {Ire}) debuts for Joseph Allen and the Jean-Claude Rouget stable and is the latest progeny out of the stellar broodmare Solo de Lune (Ire) (Law Society), responsible for the high-class performers L’Ancresse (Ire) (Darshaan {GB}), Moonstone (GB) (Dalakhani {Ire}) and Cerulean Sky (Ire) (Darshaan {GB}). Interestingly, the same owner-breeder and trainer combination also put forward Fresh Air (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}), whose dam is a full-sister to the Juddmonte heavyweight Xaar (GB).
