Pregnancy Certificate 3.5.23Description
French Response is a beautifully bred mare who is an outstanding physical type. She was a 6 time winner and is in foal to 2yo star, Hanseatic.
French Response is by outstanding Group 1 racehorse and Group 1 sire, Dalakhani - the sire of Conduit (G1 Breeders Cup Turf) and multiple Group 1 winner, Reliable Man. He is also a prolific broodmare sire including to the likes of Group 1 star and sire standing at Darley, Pinatubo.
French Response is a half sister to 2 winners and her dam, Freedom Belle is a three quarter sister to stakes winners, Equal Rights, Liberty Rose (dam of stakes winner Grand Jardin) and Tantra. Freedom Belle is also a half sister to the granddam of brilliant 2yo, Away Game and Ponterro, the dam of Group 1 winning sensation, Jacquinot.
French Response herself is a wonderfully put together broodmare with size, scope and strength. She stands approximately 16.2 hands high, is correct and has a wonderful attitude. She is in foal to brilliant 2yo, Hanseatic who won the Listed Merson Cooper in devastating fashion, backing it up with a dominant wins in the Listed Blue Diamond Preview and Group 3 Blue Diamond Prelude before an unlucky second in the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes.
Regrettably due to unforeseen circumstances this mare has been offered for genuine sale which presents a wonderful opportunity to buy into a prolific black type family.
