Behrayna

2023 b. f. Sea The Moon - Behnasa (Dansili)

Trained by Francis-Henri Graffard

A granddaughter of the great Sea The Stars via his son Sea The Moon, Behrayna is out of Behnasa, a half-sister to three Stakes winners including Gr.1 Grand Prix de Paris hero Behkabad.

She made her debut as a three-year-old in a newcomers race at ParisLongchamp, pulling clear to win by a length. She was then moved quickly into Stakes company, and did not disappoint, defeating Zarak filly Zlala by two and a half lengths in the Listed Prix de la Seine. 

“She confirmed the class she showed last time, had the speed to get an early position and to really quicken and maintain it well,” said trainer Francis-Henri Graffard. “There are two possible routes, either the Royaumont/Malleret one or to give it a go in a bigger target.

“I always thought she would be a mile-and-a-half filly, but Mikael said she could do the Diane trip without any problem.”
