Intello set for Dawn challenge

Intello, France’s leading three-year-old colt, remains on course for a possible mouthwatering clash with Dawn Approach in the Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville on August 11.

Dawn Approach faces an intriguing rematch with Toronado in Glorious Goodwood’s Sussex Stakes on July 31, but if he comes through that, connections said they intend to let the three-year-old travel to France.

Standing in his way if he does cross the Channel will be Andre Fabre’s Intello, who ran out a hugely impressive winner of the French Derby following a luckless run in the French 2000 Guineas.
