Description
The Euphrates is a 4YO gelding by Frankel out of 2-time winning Montjeu mare, Auld Alliance, who is the dam of 4 foals to race for 3 winners. He hails from the same family as Group 1 Thousand Guineas winner, Golan, and Group 2 Dante Stakes winner, Tartan Bearer.
The Euphrates was purchased for 250,000GNS from the 2024 Tattersalls Horses In Training Sale. He has raced 11 times for 3 wins and 3 placings and has amassed over $715,000 in prizemoney. He won a Listed race 2414m at Gowran Park and at the Curragh over 3419m. He was last seen finishing 7th in the Group 2 over 3118m at Royal Ascot.
On the 24th of February The Euphrates was examined at the Randwick stables of Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott. He was trotting III/V lame near fore with multiple superficial grazes to the back of his near fore. An ultrasonographic examination revealed mild carpal sheath effusion at the back of the near fore knee. The Euphrates has completed 2 weeks of his recommended 4 week spell and we look forward to welcoming this talented import back to Tulloch Lodge.
