The star name on the card runs in the first race, as Richard Hannon's Haatem takes on 5 rivals in the Listed Prix de Montretout.

After such an impressive debut, his connections must be thinking about the Graded races in the autumn, if British and Irish suitors don't tempt them to sell.

All roads clearly lead to the Arc, though the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud must now be tempting after this romp.

If Maxime Guyon can get him into a good position behind the pace, he should have too much speed for his rivals.

This was a comprehensive victory and is on a par with the level of form achieved by the recent winners of this race.

She looks to be the wrong price and if this develops into a sprint finish, she might just have too much speed for them.

He started well from his low draw, held the inside rail and then quickened away to win as he liked.

Today, she stated her claim to be the best 2-year-old that we have seen so far.

He would surely stay a mile now on this evidenced there is probably still more improvement to come after this.

Given the numerous winning 3-year-old debutantes that the yard has sent out so far this season, he is hard to ignore.

A review of the first Listed race of the season for the 2-year-olds, the Prix des Reves D'Or at Vichy

She looks to be the most exciting 2-year-old Filly that we have seen so far this season and I’ll stick with her until the form book proves otherwise.

The yard won a similar race at Fontainebleau last month and the booking of Maxime Guyon would appear to suggest that she is ready to run her race.

When we add in that she is a New Bay half-sister to Calandagan, the story has a little bit more glamour than it might first have appeared.

There can be no doubt that the form of those behind him will leave this open to question in the future.

He looks to have made the right decision to come here and must surely be looking at pattern races after this success

This was a step forward from his maiden win at Paris Longchamp in October, but was he a fortunate winner? Absolutely

It's yet more success for the Godolphin team and I won't be rushing to take on Cualificar, who is a winning horse after all.

Another day, another pair of impressive debutantes for Francis-Henri Graffard at Chantilly.

Visually she appeared to be a pattern class performer and the data from the race would appear to back up that opinion.
