Solow makes winning return

Star miler Solow overcame trouble in running to make a winning seasonal debut in the Prix Montjeu at Chantilly yesterday.

Freddy Head’s brilliant grey, who is now unbeaten in his last 10 starts, used this one-mile heat on the Polytrack as a stepping stone towards the Dubai Turf at Meydan last year.

He is now set to follow a similar path after a victory that was not without a degree of incident.
