Wondermare Treve supplies her first winner as Qous scores at Chantilly
Son of Dubawi carried the colours of Al Shaqab Racing
Qous, the first foal out of dual Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe heroine Treve, opened his account at Chantilly on Friday when landing the Prix du Mont Alta over 1m2½f by a short neck on his second outing.
The Andre Fabre-trained three-year-old was waited with at the rear of the five-runner field, but once brought to the outside by Vincent Cheminaud the colt stayed on well to claim the lead close home.
Treve was among a host of star mares in Kingman's 2020 book.
Bred by the Head family's Haras du Quesnay, the ten-year-old daughter of Motivator is out of the winning Anabaa mare Trevise, making her a half-sister to stakes performers Trois Rois and Trophee.
Her fourth dam is the champion racemare Trillion, who found further fame as the dam of the exceptional filly Triptych.
