Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 7, 2019 Journalists Share Posted July 7, 2019 Trainer Jean-Claude Rouget expects his G1 Prix du Jockey Club winner Sottsass (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) to be even better by the autumn ahead of a mouthwatering clash with Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}). All being well, the two will meet in the G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe in October, but having won the G1 Coral-Eclipse on her return to action at Sandown on Saturday, Enable– who will be bidding for a record third win in the race–sets a very high standard. Sottsass comfortably accounted for the G1 French Guineas winner Persian King (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) in the French Derby and his trainer feels there is plenty more to come, with a short-term goal the G2 Qatar Prix Niel at ParisLongchamp on Sept. 15. “Normally he will go for the Niel and then be trained for the Arc,” Rouget told Sky Sports Racing. “He’s in good form–it’s the classic French preparation.” The post Rouget Targetting Arc for Sottsass appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
