Harrington and Moyglare can dream big as Trevaunance comes of age in Nonette

Trevaunance was seen very much as a filly for next year by Jessica Harrington and Moyglare Stud after winning the Group 3 Prix de Pysche 18 days ago.

On that occasion Shane Foley was in the saddle and although Tony Piccone deputised here in the Group 2 Prix de la Nonette, the result was much the same as Trevaunance powered clear of her rivals.

This time Harrington and Moyglare's owner, Eva-Maria Bucher Haefner had made the trip to see the daughter of Muhaarar.

"I think she's improved again since her last win here," said Harrington. "She's a big, long-striding filly and she probably doesn't do anything very quickly but when you wind her up and get her going, she lengthens her stride.

"I think next year a mile and a half will be her trip but this year I don't know where we’ll go. she loves quick ground."

Trevaunance is not entered in the Prix de l'Opera over Arc weekend but Harrington did not rule out an entry in the Prix Vermeille, although Irish Champions Weekend may win out in terms of her next start.

"She could come to the Vermeille," said Harrington. "It was one step at a time and she may go back to Ireland for the Group 2 Moyglare 'Jewels' Blandford Stakes, I think the family would probably like to run her there. To win a Group 3 and then a Group 2 here is absolutely amazing."

If Trevaunance continues to progress then a tilt at the Arc in 2023 looks the obvious plan for an operation that tends to keep its best breeding prospects in training at four.

Asked about a campaign built around the Arc, a beaming Harrington said: "We can but dream. She's a lovely filly."

Earlier Checkandchallenge derailed Oscula's attempt to win a second Group 3 in five days when running out a decisive winner of the Prix Daphnis, much to the delight of owner Andrew Hetherton.

After following the action as best he could on the way to Sandown, trainer William Knight said: "It's very satisfying as it hasn’t been a straightforward season so far. He blatantly didn't handle Goodwood. Back on a flatter surface I think this shows what he’s capable of."
