Treve set for thorough check-up

Superstar filly Treve will undergo a thorough examination after returning to France today following her disappointing display in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes.

Last year’s stunning Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine lost her unbeaten record at the hands of multiple Group One-winning compatriot Cirrus Des Aigles in the Prix Ganay at Longchamp at the end of April, but was fully expected to return to her brilliant best at Royal Ascot.

However, the Criquette Head-Maarek-trained four-year-old did not move well to post in the hands of Frankie Dettori and looked ill at ease during the race itself before staying on to finish third behind the hugely-impressive The Fugue.
