Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted Sunday at 02:37 PM Journalists Posted Sunday at 02:37 PM A seemingly wide-open renewal of Chantilly's G1 Qatar Prix du Jockey-Club ultimately produced the most straightforward outcome as Ballydoyle's Camille Pissarro prevailed as the 12-5 favourite. Drawn against the rail, one of the stable's abundance of Wootton Bassett colts only had to follow the pace aided by the yard's Trinity College taking the shortest route. Ryan Moore's only complication came in the closing stages as he needed to thread the G1 Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere winner through a gap no more a horse's width but he had all the momentum with his mount having saved so much energy throughout. At the line, the sire's second Classic winner of 2025 had half a length to spare over Godolphin's Cualificar, Lope De Vega's G3 Prix la Force and G3 Prix de Guiche-winning son of the Oaks heroine Qualify who covered himself in glory from stall 12. Juddmonte's Detain was a neck away in third, making it a one-three for Wootton Bassett as it had been in the G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains when Camille Pissarro had been two places behind stablemate Henri Matisse. “He did everything right today and Aidan had him in a beautiful frame of mind,” Moore said after steering his second Prix du Jockey Club winner and first for Ballydoyle. “Fair play to Christophe [Soumillon], he said he'd have no problem with the trip and he showed nice acceleration there. He put them away.” Camille Pissarro wins the 2025 Prix du Jockey Club! pic.twitter.com/jDSfeDzVba — At The Races (@AtTheRaces) June 1, 2025 The post ‘He Put Them Away’: Moore Charmed By Wootton Bassett’s Jockey Club Hero Camille Pissarro appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
