Andre Fabre's Meandre Beats Star Fillies

The four-year-old was a vastly spectacular winner of the Grand Prix de Paris last summer, however was then overwhelmed within the Prix Niel and well held within the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.

His comeback fourth in Newmarket's Jockey Club Stakes failed to inspire a lot of confidence for the remainder of the campaign and a subsequent defeat at cluster 3 level meant he was the outsider of 4 runners during this competitive cluster One heat.

Shareta cut out the running within the early stages of the mile-and-a-half contest, closely pursued by Arc heroine Danedream and Meandre.
