Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted Sunday at 02:21 PM Journalists Posted Sunday at 02:21 PM Deauville's G1 ARC Prix Maurice de Gheest was one of the very few French Pattern races to have evaded Andre Fabre until Sunday, but Prince Faisal's Sajir (Make Believe) duly put that right with a command performance. Anchored in last early by Oisin Murphy, the 26-1 shot was always travelling like the best horse and after making his move on the wing tanked to the front a furlong out en route to an authoritative 1 3/4-length success from the 1-2 favourite Lazzat (Territories). Last year's winner was a head in front of the G1 Prix Jean Prat winner Woodshauna (Wooded). “Sajir was brilliant today–he relaxed great and I had a lot of confidence,” Murphy said. “He won really well and I'm delighted for everyone connected with the horse.” Sajir springs a shock in the Group One Prix Maurice de Gheest! pic.twitter.com/JEJqGTe1b7 — At The Races (@AtTheRaces) August 10, 2025 The post Sajir Causes Upset To Provide Fabre With First Maurice de Gheest appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
