Fiesolana set for French raid Trainer Willie McCreery is eyeing up a trip to France for star mare Fiesolana. The five-year-old enjoyed a tremendous campaign in 2013, with a Group Two triumph in the Challenge Stakes at Newmarket in October among her five victories for the year. She has changed ownership during the winter and will this season carry the colours of Flaxman Stables - who also own the David Wachman-trained Duntle - as she aims to make the grade at Group One level. McCreery said: "She's got stronger again during the winter and we're really looking forward to getting her going. "The plan is to start off in a Group Two at Saint-Cloud in early May. That's where we're heading at this stage. "She's owned by Flaxmen Stables now, which is brilliant for the yard, so hopefully we can have a big year with her."
