Extra quality was added to an already top Irish side in the Prix de l’Opéra (3.50 on Sunday) as the rapidly improving three-year-old Trevaunance’s relationship raised €38,000 for the complete for a crack at the Group 1 price.
Trained by Jessica Harrington, who had just been launched in the same race two years ago with Alpine Star, Trevaunance has already made two lucrative trips to France this season for owner-breeders Moyglare Stud.
She followed up a smart win in the Group 3 Prix de Psyche at Deauville by clinching the Group 2 Prix de la Nonette with improved presentation at the same venue last month.
Named by Harrington as his dark horse for the season in this year’s Racing Post Stable Tour series, 110-rated filly Muhaarar is priced between 14-1 and 16-1 to lower the colors of top contenders Nashwa, Above The Curve and La Parisienne.
Harrington said: “Hopefully it’s a good chance for her to race in a Group 1 so we’re rolling the dice.

“She has always looked like a great filly and has gotten stronger and stronger in her last races. We will also be racing Pivotal Trigger at Longchamp on Sunday in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardère.”
The heroine of Oaks on Tuesday remains in contention for the 1m2f contest as Ballydoyle’s only entrant, while Insinuendo, trained by Willie McCreery, could have a chance to avenge their narrow loss at Blandford Stakes to Above The Curve, who represent Joseph O’Brien.
There was also a notable addition on Thursday at the Group 1 Qatar Prix Marcel Boussac (1.50) with trainer Fozzy Stack and owner Craig Bernick showing their faith in the promising juvenile Aspen Grove by adding her to the race for €28,800.
It was the filly Justify’s first victory as it caused a huge 66-1 upset in the Newtownanner Stud Irish EBF Stakes in Group 3 at the Curragh last time out, although the result didn’t appear to come as a major surprise to Relations. , who seem to rate it. very.

Stack said: “Aspen Grove is in good shape and has won well at the Curragh. We’ve always loved it, it’s always done well.”
On Castle Star bound for the Prix de l’Abbaye, Stack said: “He had no luck racing in the Flying Five last time [when finishing eighth of 19 runners] so hopefully he gets a clearer passage on Sunday.”
Aspen Grove is a better price 16-1 with William Hill for its Group 1 bid, while Castle Star is available at 25-1 for the culmination of the weekend sprint.
