Verdict
Frankie Dettori was mightily impressed with DABIRSIM when riding him to a clear-cut success in the Prix Morny at Deauville and it's difficult to see what can stop his mount completing a five-timer. The other C&D winner in the line-up, Sofast, was firmly put in his place in the Morny, though he did improve to beat today's rivals Mac Row and American Devil subsequently. The remainder have plenty to find if they are to get competitive.
