A €100,000 Deauville August yearling, Le Havre is the first foal out of a half sister to Pivotal's sire Polar Falcon, the pair being out of the Listed winner and Group-placed Marie d'Argonne.

This is a first Group One win for Noverre, also the sire of Group winners Langs Lash, Miss Lucifer, Summit Surge and Nijoom Dubai. The son of Rahy has 26 winners from 105 runners this year, and looks set to post a career high earnings total this season.
