Queen Elizabeth II Stakes
Daryakana, a chestnut mare with a white blaze, was bred in France by her owner the Aga Khan. She was sired by the American-bred miler Selkirk who won the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes and the Lockinge Stakes when trained in Britain. Daryakana's dam Daryaba won the Prix de Diane and the Prix Vermeille for the Aga Khan in 1999.
