Group winner Gezora (Fr) (Almanzor {Fr}) has been acquired privately by Peter Brant's White Birch Farm, Jour de Galop reported on Friday. The G3 Prix des Reservoirs winner holds Classic aspirations and she will now be trained by Francis-Henri Graffard.

Bred by SARL de Chambure/Haras d'Etreham, the bay made four starts for Etreham and trainer Nicolas le Roch. Fourth when unveiled at Dieppe in July, she graduated by a length there a month later. A narrow second in the G3 Prix de Conde at Chantilly in September, the daughter of Germance (Silver Hawk) ran out a 1 3/4-length winner of the G3 Prix des Reservoirs at Deauville on Oct. 21.

A half-sister to the multiple stakes-placed Garance (Fr) (Teofilo {Ire}), Gezora is the 11th foal out of G1 Prix Saint-Alary heroine Germance, who was also second in the G1 Prix de Diane. G1 Prix d'Ispahan hero Mekhtaal (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) is under the third dam, while his Galileo (Ire) half-sister Aigue Marine (GB), a multiple Grade III winner in the U.S. and a stakes winner in France, is the dam of G2 Grand Prix de Deauville third and three-time listed winner Fenelon (Fr) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}). Another half-sibling to Mekhtaal is the dam of G1 Criterium International second and group winner Normandy Bridge (Fr) (Le Havre {Ire}).
