Rathasker bred Listen In wins Gr.2 Prix du Conseil de Paris

23 Oct 2018

Listen In (Sea The Stars), won last year’s Listed Grand Prix de Clairefontaine and this term’s Listed Prix Luth Enchantee in her penultimate start. Looming large in the straight, Listen In led passing the two pole and would not be denied a career high from there, running on gamely under a forceful drive to withstand the threat of Time Shanakill by a neck. “She’s been beaten narrowly so many times at group level that she really deserved to win one during her career,” insisted trainer Freddy Head after registering his first win in the contest. “She is the most genuine. This was her last race, she’ll head to the paddocks and bows out on a really high note.” Listen In (ex Es Que) is a half sister to Gr.1 Hong Kong Vase victor Dominant, Gr.2 Lennox Stakes winner Es Que Love and this term’s Listed Midsummer Stakes winner Zhui Feng. Her second dam is Stakes winning Fr.3 Prix Penelope third Bellona, herself a half-sister to Gr.3 Prix de Flore victress In Clover, who in turn is the dam of Gr.1 Prix de l’Opera geroine We Are and this year’s Gr.1 Prix Rothschild victress With You.
