Ladies first in the GI Christophe Clement Stakes.Survie (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) had to close into a glacial pace, but roared home like they'd unleashed her at the top of the stretch, and posted a glorious win to secure an automatic berth to the Breeders' Cup Turf at Keeneland.The field broke well in a line and Ole Crazy Bone (Ghostzapper) stepped out to lead with Minaret Station (Instilled Regard) close behind in second through a pedestrian opening quarter in :26.24. Survie meanwhile had set up in last with fellow European Ancient Egypt (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) to track the action in front of them. Positions largely remained the same for most of the trip, but the pace quickened as they entered the final bend and the top two were overtaken by Program Trading (GB) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) in an outer lane as they swung for home.While the boys dueled at the front, Survie took the widest overland route and produced an electric turn of foot that her rivals simply could not counter. She came in the easiest of winners to secure her first North American Grade I contest. Minaret Station fought back to repel Program Trading late and claim second. The 9-5 favorite Ancient Egypt came in fourth.The final time was 2:31.55.Survie came into the Christophe Clement off a victory in the GII Glens Falls Stakes. She now boasts Group/Grade I black type in four countries.Sales history: 1,900,000gns HRA '25 TATDEC. O-Michael Tabor; B-Franklin Finance SA (IRE); T-George Boughey.
