French pair fail in Japanese mission
French raiders Sahpresa and Immortal Verse failed to make an impact as Eishin Apollon claimed the Mile Championship at Kyoto.
Rod Collet’s Sahpresa finished fourth in the race last year and she went once place better this time in third but Immortal Verse, who is trained by Collet’s father Robert, could muster only a seventh-place finish.
