A top-class 10-furlong horse who won once at the highest level, was runner-up in the Group 1 Prix du Jockey Club (French Derby) and twice third in the Group 1 Dubai World Cup, Haras de Bouquetot stallion Planteur is a son of leading sire Danehill Dancer (by Danehill), whose stallion sons include the Group 1 sires Choisir, Mastercraftsman, Monsieur Bond, Silent Times, Air Chief Marshal and Fast Company.
He is the best of several winners out of Plante Rare (by Giant's Causeway), an unraced half-sister to the Group 1-placed middle-distance Group 2 scorers Policy Maker (by Sadler's Wells) and Pushkin (by Caerleon) and also to Group 3 Lancashire Oaks scorer Place Rouge (by Desert King).
The third dam of Planteur is the Group 3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes winner Petroleuse (by Habitat) and that means that Palmeraie (by Lear Fan), his grandam, is a half-sister to Peinture Bleue (by Alydar), the Grade 2-winning dam of Peintre Celebre (by Nureyev).
Europe's champion three-year-old of 1997, when he crowned a classic-winning season with a brilliant display in the Group 1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, the top-level winners he sired as a member of the Coolmore team include the multiple Group 1 star Pride. There are many other stakes and pattern winners who descend from Petroleuse, but with regard to Planteur's stallion potential they tell us nothing more than we already know, that he's a classic-placed Group 1 winner by a sire of successful stallions and from the immediate family of a classic sire. His three juvenile outings were all over a mile, and resulted in two wins and a second, so it would be reasonable to presume that his better two-year-olds will not be seen until the second half of the season. His racing and pedigree profile suggests that most of his best progeny will be middle-distance horses and stayers, although he could get some milers, with the right mares. PLANTEUR (IRE) – b.2007 – Danehill Dancer – Plante Rare, 7 wins inc Prix Ganay (Gr1), Prix Noailles (Gr2), Prix d'Harcourt (Gr2), Winter Hill Stakes (Gr3), Winter Derby Trial (L), 2nd Prix du Jockey Club (Gr1), Grand Prix de Paris (Gr1), Prix d'Ispahan (Gr1-twice), Prix Niel (Gr2), 3rd Dubai World Cup (Gr1-twice). Sire in France. First foals in 2015.
