ZALINA (FR) (f, 2, Pinatubo {Ire}–Lady Baker, by Pioneerof The Nile) broke well and asserted for control after the initial strides of this unveiling. Holding sway thereafter, the 37-5 chance was bustled along turning for home and kept on powerfully under continued urging inside the final quarter-mile to easily account for Persian Grace (Persian King) by three lengths. Zalina is the third of four foals and first scorer produced by a winning half-sister to Group 3-winning G2 German 1000 Guineas runner-up Peace In Motion (Hat Trick) and Listed Kronimus-Rennen and Listed Baden-Baden Cup victrix Peace Society (Iffraaj). The January-foaled bay, whose second dam is dual Group 3 winner Peace Royale (Sholokhov), is half to a yearling filly by Siyouni. Sales history: €160,000 Ylg '24 ARQOCT. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, €13,700.
