Persian King saw off the raiding party to provide trainer Andre Fabre with a record seventh victory in the Prix du Moulin at ParisLongchamp.

A small but select field of six runners went to post for the Group One feature, with Charlie Appleby’s Pinatubo the 5-4 favourite to strike gold over a mile for the first time.

Considering future targets, Fabre added: “We have different options, one is the Champion Stakes at Ascot and another is the Arc. I think he can step back up in distance and we will see closer to the time which way we go.”

Pinatubo could now switch down to seven furlongs back at ParisLongchamp on Arc weekend, before heading to America.

Appleby told www.godolphin.com: “Pinatubo has run another solid race and seen the mile out.

“We will see how he comes out of the race and discuss it with connections, but I think the plan will be to come back to Longchamp for the Prix de la Foret and then hopefully on to the Breeders’ Cup Mile.”
