Chaldean enhances reputation in Champagne Stakes

Frankel colt adds to Acomb victory in style.

Chaldean produced a high-class performance to win the Cazoo Champagne Stakes under Frankie Dettori at Doncaster.

Sent straight to the front in the three-runner affair, the Andrew Balding-trained Frankel colt (2-1) appeared to relish the ease in the ground as he powered to the line in relentless fashion.

In contrast odds-on favourite Silver Knott – who had been impressive when taking the Solario Stakes at Sandown – never looked happy, as the field moved in single file.

Indestructible – second to Chaldean in the Acomb at York – took the runner-up spot, with three and a half lengths the winning margin.
