Quaduna Does It in G3 Premio Verziere-Memorial Aldo Cirla
The German raider Quaduna has a special liking for San Siro. Last season she came for the G3 Premio Verziere with just a maiden win in her bag and posted a wire-to-wire success. The Gestut Fahrhof homebred started this season winning at the listed level at Hoppegarten and was not disgraced when fourth, less than four lengths behind the winner Esoterique (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}), in the G3 Dahlia S. The heavy ground turned into a magic carpet for Quaduna, who set the pace and outstayed the Group 3 winner So Many Shots, who ran a solid race in her come back and will head to the G1 Lydia Tesio. Duke Of Marmalade (Ire) (Danehill), who stands at Drakenstein Stud Farm for his first South African season, sired the winning exacta. Quelle Amore, the dam of Quaduna, joined Katsumi Yoshida’s broodmare band after being purchased for 300,000gns at the Tattersalls December Sale in 2010. Her first Japanese foal, the 3-year-old filly Quelle Chance (Jpn) (Dubawi {Ire}) has won once. Quelle Amore has a yearling colt by King Kamehameha (Jpn) (Kingmambo).
