Gr.1-winning miler of the Qatar Prix du Moulin de Longchamp Gr.1

GR.1 WINNER AT 3 AGAINST TOP-CLASS OPPOSITION

Supplemented with the full confidence of his trainer FH Graffard, SAHLAN landed the Prix du Moulin de Longchamp Gr.1 against a field of proven international milers, including multiple Gr.1 winner ROSALLION, Classic winners HENRI MATISSE and MARHABA YA SANAFI, Lockinge Stakes Gr.1 winner LEAD ARTIST, as well as Gr.1 performers THE LION IN WINTER and ALCANTOR. At just 3, he beat several of his older rivals at the highest level.

A MILER WITH EXCEPTIONAL SPEED

Won the Prix Daphnis Gr.3 in record time before landing the Prix du Moulin de Longchamp Gr.1 in what was then the race’s fastest time for 25 years.

PRECOCIOUS AND PROGRESSIVE

A winner on his only start at two, SAHLAN returned at three to finish runner-up in the Prix de Fontainebleau Gr.3.

A WELL-BALANCED SON OF WOOTTON BASSETT

Out of a Stakes-winning daughter of Champion Miler TORONADO, SAHLAN is a well-balanced, medium-sized horse with a pedigree offering breeders plenty of mating options.

“SAHLAN has always shown plenty of quality, but what really sets him apart is his turn of foot, whatever the pace of the race. He showed it when breaking the race record in the Prix Daphnis, before landing the Prix du Moulin against top-class milers in what was then the fastest time in the race for 25 years. He has always been sound, with an excellent temperament, and that turn of foot is a quality we would very much like to see him pass on.”
