Just a couple of hours later in France, the Godolphin homebred three-year-old Life In Motion was an easy winner of the Listed Prix Coronation at Saint-Cloud. The filly was last seen finishing second to Purplepay (Zarak) in the Gr.2 Prix de Sandringham.
Sea The Stars is currently the leading Irish-based sire in Europe, thanks to another great run of success in 2022.
