Campanelle (IRE)

Campanelle made her career debut at Gulfstream Park in a five-furlong maiden special weight race on May 31, 2020. She never trailed, bursting out of the gate on top and crossing the wire 3 1/2 lengths in front.

After that win, trainer Wesley Ward sent the Kodiac filly to Royal Ascot for the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes. She won that race for her first graded stakes triumph. She added another stakes win to her credentials on Aug. 23, 2020, at Deauville, in France, when she won the Group 1 Darley Prix Morny- Finale des Darley Series.

Following a fourth-place finish in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, Campanelle took several months off. She returned with a victory in the Group 1 Comomonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot on June 18, 2021. She next was shipped to France and was unplaced Aug. 8 in a Group 1 race on soft turf at Deauville. A little more than two months later, Campanelle returned to action in the United States in the Grade 3 Buffalo Trace Franklin County Stakes Oct. 15 at Keeneland. She was shuffled back in the early stages of the race and closed resolutely to finish third as the 6-5 favorite.

Campanelle made her 2022 debut in the Giant's Causeway Stakes at Keeneland on April 16. She rated off the pace a few paths off the rail in the early stages, then moved powerfully to the front in the stretch and won going away. She ran 5 1/2 furlongs on the grass in 1:01.98, to set a new stakes record. Shipped back to England for a return engagement at the Royal Ascot meeting, Campanelle finished third by three-quarters of a length in the Group 1 Platinum Jubilee Stakes. Back in the U.S. for her third start of the year, Campanelle outfinished a determined Bay Storm to win the Grade 3 Mint Ladies Turf Sprint in a thrilling finish at Kentucky Downs.

Campanelle subsequently raced in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Keeneland. She was sent off as the 8-1 fourth choice on the tote board in the field of 14, and finished seventh.

Irish-bred Campanelle is out of the stakes-winning Namid mare Janina.
