Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 4 hours ago Journalists Posted 4 hours ago Fast but not quite fast enough for six furlongs, Maranoa Charlie (Wootton Bassett) was back in his comfort zone on Sunday and back in the winner's enclosure at the end of ParisLongchamp's G3 Prix Paul de Moussac. Let loose from the outset of the seven-furlong G1 Prix Jean Prat prep by Aurelien Lemaitre, the 19-10 favourite who was fourth in Chantilly's G3 Prix Texanita speed test last month relished the opportunity to dominate from an early point. Chased to the line by the Wertheimers' Silius (Dubawi) as he had been when staging a successful comeback in the G3 Prix Djebel in April, Peter Maher's colour-bearer kept rolling for a two-length verdict, with another Wertheimer homebred 2 1/2 lengths away in third in the filly Polyvega (Lope De Vega). “I can't wait to see him in the Jean Prat next time,” trainer Christopher Head said. “He's showing that he's not a sprinter or a miler, he's in between. He can also do well in soft ground and he keeps surprising us–these Wootton Bassetts are really incredible.” Maranoa Charlie leads them all the way in the Prix Paul de Moussac!
