Pedigree of last year’s winner
Segesta
Segesta is out of Antonoe (First Defence), a Grade 1 winner in the US and a Group winner in France, who took the Gr.3 Prix d'Aumale and was placed in the Grade 1 Diana Stakes. Antonoe is also the dam of Salamis (Speightstown), a Grade 1 winner, giving her two top-level winners in the same weekend. Second dam Ixora (Dynaformer) is also the dam of Upbeat Mood (Mizzen Mast), whose produce includes Light Mood (City Light), Listed-placed in France. This female line traces to All at Sea, winner of the Gr.1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp, and the wider family includes the stakes-placed West Beach (Omaha Beach).
