He had to cover Chantilly's straight six furlongs in a time over a second faster than when taking the G3 Prix du Bois last month, but what would prove too difficult for others is far from a test for the highly progressive Arabie (GB) (Dandy Man {Ire}–Mamma Morton {Ire}, by Elnadim) as he enhanced his portfolio in Sunday's G2 Prix Robert Papin.

In a renewal absent of any French-trained juveniles, it was the fellow British raider Celandine (GB) (Kingman {GB}) who pressed on from the outset but Mohamed Saeed Al Shahi's 11-10 favourite always had that Rockcliffe Stud homebred covered and when Jim Crowley sent him forward to edge it approaching the final furlong the writing was on the wall. Strong to the line, the latest successful Karl Burke cross-channel raider had 3/4 of a length to spare there over the strong-closing Shadow Army (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) as he denied Celandine the runner's-up spot by a short neck.
