Precise delivers dashing Fillies’ Mile success

Precise made no mistake in striding to a tremendously impressive victory in the bet365 Fillies’ Mile at Newmarket.

Aidan O’Brien’s Moyglare Stud Stakes winner was the 5-4 favourite under Christophe Soumillon and hung back as the field went forward to seek out her higher-drawn stablemates Composing and Sugar Island.

Having gained cover from them she was left to work her way into the race and her ability told as she did so with little fuss. Hitting the front in the final furlong, she pressed on to an easy three-and-a-quarter-length victory from Charlie Johnston-trained 40-1 shot Venetian Lace.

Coral make Precise the 5-2 favourite for next year’s 1000 Guineas, ahead of stablemates Diamond Necklace and True Love – winners of the Prix Marcel Boussac and Cheveley Park Stakes respectively – at 8-1.
