Group 1 winner Onesto (Ire) has sired his first reported foals, according to a release from Haras d'Etreham on Friday.
Haras de Saint-Julien, Haras de Bourgeauville and Coulonces Sales welcomed the first arrivals of the 2022 G1 Grand Prix de Paris winner. Said Anna Sundstrom of Coulonces, “She is a high-quality filly, very correct, with plenty of size and a pretty and expressive head. She is easy to handle and I am delighted with her, as are her owners who will certainly keep her.”
Added Louis Baudron, “We are very pleased with Villanelle's filly by Onesto. She is elegant, well-balanced and displays excellent quality.”
Another filly, out of Motivation (Fr)) (Muhtathir {Ire}), arrived at Haras des Capucines. The dam has already produced the Group 1 winner Rockemperor (Ire) to the cover of Holy Roman Emperor (Ire). Capucines also welcomed a colt out of Mintaka (Fr) (Zamindar), whose first foal, Cartiem (Fr) (Cape Cross {Ire}), won the G3 Prix Penelope and finished third in the G2 Prix de la Nonette; and a filly who is the niece of two black-type horses including Group 1 winner Odeliz (Ire) (Falco).
Eric Puerari was pleased with the new arrivals and said, “We have had two colts and two fillies and we are delighted with them. They are very well-balanced, just like their sire, with strong physiques and refined heads. They are all foals with great presence, good conformation and plenty of character.”
Lady Glenham (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}), a half-sister of dual Group 1 scorer Russian Camelot (Ire) (Camelot {GB}), also gave birth to a filly at Haras d'Etreham.
