Group-placed as a juvenile, D'ORES ET DEJA got off the mark at Compiègne on Friday, landing the Prix Atalante (Maiden, 1600m). Ridden by Christophe Soumillon, the Fabrice Chappet-trained filly made all and quickened clear to score on her seasonal return in our silks.

A model of consistency at two, the daughter of Zarak out of D'Or Et Diamant (Teofilo) had finished third in the Prix des Réservoirs Gr.3 at Deauville. Bred by Mme Isabelle Corbani, she now gets a deserved win to kickstart her three-year-old campaign.
