Re: Horse Racing
Intello strikes for Fabre.

Quote:
Andre Fabre secured his third Prix du Jockey Club triumph as hot favourite Intello ran out an impressive winner of the Chantilly Classic.
A fast-finishing third after a troubled passage in the French 2000 Guineas, the Galileo colt was sent off the 15-8 favourite stepped up to a mile and a quarter for the first time and was always travelling strongly in the hands of Olivier Peslier.
Ridden to lead heading inside the last two furlongs, Intello showed smart acceleration to put the race to bed and he came home comfortably clear of Morandi and Christophe Soumillon. Fabre also saddled the third, Godolphin's Sky Hunter.
