Euphrasia takes up Royallieu option Euphrasia has been declared for Saturday's Prix de Royallieu at Longchamp. Trainer John Murphy had the choice of that Group Two event over 12 furlongs or Sunday's Prix de l'Opera, a Group One over 10 furlongs, for his mare. After seeing her finish fifth in the Prix Jean Romanet over the shorter trip on her prep run, he has opted to tackle the longer event on Saturday, in which there are 12 runners.
