Found has come through her final piece of work in good form ahead of Saturday's Qipco Champion Stakes to book her ticket for the end-of-season showpiece at Ascot.

Aidan O'Brien's filly was a leading juvenile last season but nothing much has gone right this term.

A setback meant she was not ready in time for the 1000 Guineas, she was second to Pleascach in the Irish version, filled the same spot behind Ervedya in the Coronation Stakes and also chased home Golden Horn in the Irish Champion Stakes.

A first try over 12 furlongs proved inconclusive in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe as she met plenty of trouble in running and she will step back down to a mile and a quarter this weekend.

"The plan is to go for the Champion. She's good. She did a little bit on Tuesday morning and seems fine,' said O'Brien.
