New Stakes-winner for Almanzor

Tara Madgwick - Monday September 5

Cambridge Stud shuttler Almanzor (Fr) added a new stakes-winner to his tally in France overnight when promising two year-old filly Around Midnight won the Listed Criterium de l’Ouest (1650m) at Craon.

Trained by Jean-Claude Rouget, Around Midnight made it two wins from three starts when she scored a neck win in her first attempt at Black Type.

 

Around Midnight is the fourth stakes-winner for Almanzor and is his third in the Northern Hemisphere.

She is the second winner from Artifix, a half-sister by Lawman to Group II placed Fuse from the family of Group I winner Falco and Group winners Legerete, Soleil Marin and Iron Lips.

Almanzor (Fr)

Almanzor shuttles from Haras d’Etreham in France to Cambridge Stud where the son of Wootton Bassett stands this spring at a fee of $50,000.

Almanzor has some promising three year-olds for this season in Manzoice and Virtuous Circle, both metropolitan winners last month.
