Librettist and Frankie dominate in the Moulin

by PA Sport Staff

LIBRETTIST made virtually all the running in the hands of Frankie Dettori to win the Prix du Moulin at Longchamp this afternoon.
The Saeed bin Suroor-trained four-year-old followed up last month's win in the Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville to land his seventh race from eight career starts.

Librettist was all out to hold the strong late challenges of Stormy River and Manduro to lift the Group 1 race over a mile, with Kieren Fallon's mount Aussie Rules, trained by Aidan O'Brien, fourth.
Dettori had his mount smartly away from the stalls and wassoon in front from Irridescence.
Although Librettist was never more than two lengths in front, Dettori was always in control and quickened the tempo as the eight-strong field hit the straight.

Stormy River was the first to lay down a bid but Librettist always looked like holding him and was half a length clear at the line.

Manduro finished strongly for Christophe Soumillon and was the same distance away in third.
