The purse for the Sept. 30 Haras de Bouquetot – Criterium d'Octobre for graduates of Arqana's October Yearling Sale will be €274,000, up from the initially announced €250,000. The purse was raised when 210 horses paid up for the third confirmation stage on May 31, more than originally expected. The purse will be further boosted by the €500 entry fee paid by the connections of the final field, of which the maximum is 16.

In addition to purse money, the breeder of the winner of the race will receive a nomination to Shalaa (Ire); the second a nomination to Olympic Glory (Ire); and the third to Style Vendome (Fr). All stand at Haras de Bouquetot, the race's title sponsor.
