This year’s Prix de Diane (French Oaks) at Chantilly looks to be an exciting renewal with top French fillies Blue Rose Cen, Pensee Du Jour and Jannah Rose opposing for the first time. There is a strong contingent from the UK and Ireland, headed by Listed winner Running Lion and Aidan O’Brien’s Never Ending Story.

Andre Fabre has Classic aspirations for Pensee Du Jour after the exciting filly maintained her unbeaten record with a thoroughly impressive display in the Group Three Prix Penelope at Saint-Cloud.
