Son Of Footstepsinthesand Adds Another Stakes Success To CV

Marianafoot (6c Footstepsinthesand - Marianabaa, by Anabaa) recorded his fifth consecutive win on Monday when landing the Listed Prix Servanne at Chantilly.

Dropping back to six furlongs, the Jerome Reynier-trained chesnut chased the leaders under Mickael Barzalona and began to quicken from two furlongs out. Ridden out to assert entering the final furlong, he ran on strongly to win by two and a half lengths, as previous Stakes winners filled the next three spots behind him.

Jean-Claude Seroul’s homebred boasts a remarkable record of 11 wins from 18 starts; his victories including three Listed contests and the valuable Group 2 Doha Cup. The son of Footstepsinthesand is a full-brother to two-year-old winner Marianasand, who was narrowly beaten in a Listed race last time out, while their dam is a half-sister to Stakes winner Mariafoot (Footstepsinthesand).
