Treve's sister sold for €520,000
to Qatari owner and will stay in France
BY KITTY TRICE AND SCOTT BURTON
Gerard Larrieu of
Chantilly Bloodstock
struck the winning bid
The brilliant Treve (Motivator) famously
failed to sell at Arqana's October Yearling Sale
nearly nine years ago but her sister had no
such problem, attracting the attention of Qatari
owner Sheail bin Khalifa Al Kuwari in a drawn
out bidding match.
One of the star lots on a busy second day
of the Select Yearling Sale, Haras du Quesnay's
daughter of Motivator (Montjeu) went the way
of Gerard Larrieu of Chantilly Bloodstock for
€520,000 (approx AUD$845,500).
Larrieu has a long-standing association
with the garlanded family, having purchased
Treve for Al Shaqab Racing after her four-length
Prix de Diane triumph in 2013, with two Prix
de l'Arc de Triomphe (Gr 1, 2400m) victories
among her six top-level wins.
She retired after finishing fourth to Golden
Horn (Cape Cross) in a bid for a record-breaking
third success in the Longchamp showpiece
and has since produced the winning Dubawi
