Dabirsim Filly Romps To Impressive Success at Chantilly

Filippo Ezri and Jean-Pierre Djian's Une Pointure (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}–Whipcorse {Fr}, by Whipper), a Marcel Rolland trainee, backed up a debut third at Saint-Cloud last month with an impressive seven-length tally over six furlongs in Tuesday's Prix de la Verrerie at Chantilly.

3rd-Chantilly, €30,000, Mdn, 7-2, 2yo, f, 6fT, 1:11.57, g/s.
UNE POINTURE (FR) (f, 2, Dabirsim {Fr}–Whipcorse {Fr}, by Whipper), who hit the board going seven furlongs at Saint-Cloud in her June 4 debut last time, broke in mid division and moved forward to stalk the leaders in third after the initial skirmishes of this one. Tanking to the front approaching the quarter-mile marker, the 51-10 third choice was not for catching thereafter and romped clear under urging in the closing stages to defeat La Flute (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) by an impressive seven lengths. Une Pointure is the latest of three foals and third scorer produced by a multiple-winning half to G3 Albany Stakes victrix and G1 Prix Morny and G1 Cheveley Park Stakes placegetter Different League (Fr) (Dabirsim {Fr}), herself the dam of this term's G3 Chester Vase runner-up Agenda (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). The January-foaled bay hails from the family of Group 1-placed sire Carrowkeel (Ire) (Waajib {Ire}). Sales history: €77,000 Ylg '23 ARQAUG. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1, €19,500.
