Laws Of Indices seeks further Group 1 glory in France Laws Of Indices provided Ken Condon with a surprise Group 1 win last month in the Prix Jean Prat and the Curragh trainer is hopeful of another big run as his stablestar returns to Deauville on Sunday for the Prix Maurice de Gheest. The six and a half furlongs Group 1 is full of talent headed by Commonwealth Cup heroine Campanelle and Starman, who comes here off the back of an impressive win in the Darley July Cup. Condon, who also enjoyed top level success at Deauville two years ago with Romanised in the Prix Jacques le Marois, reports the three-year-old son of Power in good shape for this big test saying, “Laws Of Indices is in good form and seems very well. “He’s been in good form since his last run and a month turnaround should be fine. It’s a very good race but hopefully he can turn up and run another big race. “It looks a strong renewal and the ground might be a little bit drier this time but he’s pretty ground versatile to be fair to him.” "We’re happy to having Olivier Peslier riding our horse again” The Irish challenge is further bolstered by Thunder Moon, who only went down by a head to Laws Of Indices in the Prix Jean Prat, and Ballydoyle's Lope Y Fernandez, second in the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot but a disappointing seventh in the Sussex Stakes last time. Of Thunder Moon, his trainer Joseph O’Brien told Betfair: “We were thrilled to see Thunder Moon get back on track in the Prix Jean Prat at Deauville last time, as his first two runs of the season had been very disappointing. “The drop in trip seemed to help him and he was only just touched off by Laws Of Indices. This even shorter trip should be fine for him and the less testing ground will definitely be in his favour, as we considered taking him out of the Prix Jean Prat on account of the softening ground. “The better the ground, the better his chance. The 12-runner Prix Maurice de Gheest goes to post at 2.50pm on Sunday.
