River coasts home

Trainer Nicolas Clement was keeping his options open after Stormy River won the Listed Prix Djebel, the traditional French prep for the 2000 Guineas, at Maisons-Laffitte.

The grey came down the middle of the track to pass leader Tsar Xaar over a furlong out and go on to beat Marchand d’Or by three-quarters of a length in the seven-furlong race.
