October 19, 2021, Deauville-Touques Racecourse (Calvados). - Rosacea (Soldier Hollow) had just won twice before this first tilt at a Group race in the Prix des Réservoirs (Gr3). Long-held at the rear of a field led by Ataared (Muhaarar) and Batz (Bated Breath), she met some trouble finding a way through but once she did, the race was soon over as she passed her rivals to score by a good length over Queen Trezy (Almanzor), also closing at the end, and the two leaders, half a length behind.
Bred in Ireland, Rosacea is homebred by her owner Haras de la Pérelle (Jurgen Winter.) She was not sold but her Tamayuz yearling sister is at the Arqana October sale on the next day. The filly is the third foal, albeit the only winner to date, out of Relizane (Zamindar), a winner at Clairefontaine and a sister to the E P Taylor Stakes (Gr1) winner Reggane (Red Ransom).
