First Winner For Wootton Bassett’s Son Texas At Marseille

Wait 5 sec.

Haras de Castillon's first-season sire Texas (by Wootton Bassett) was off the mark with his initial crop on Friday as Azamra took the first at Marseille-Borely.Standing at a fee of €3,800, the Poule d'Essai des Poulains runner-up was represented in the five-furlong Prix de Carro by the Nicolas Perret-trained filly who began in the worst possible manner by ducking right out of the stalls and taking a fierce grip in rear without cover.Still able to surge by her peers and gain the advantage a furlong out, the 6-1 shot edged the contest by a neck from Sunny Queen (Kingman) under Antonio Orani.The winner, who cost €15,000 at Osarus September, is out of the unraced Zahiya (Invincible Spirit) who hails from the Aga Khan Studs family of the Sadler's Wells luminary Daliapour.The post First Winner For Wootton Bassett’s Son Texas At Marseille appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
