Mandesha Faces Crucial Workout

Connections of Mandesha will make a decision on the filly's Longchamp target after she gallops early this week.

The three-year-old was an impressive winner of the Prix Vermille at the French track on her last start and had been an intended runner in the Prix de l'Opera.

However, owner Princess Zahra Aga Khan is considering supplementing the Alain De Royer-Dupre-trained filly for the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe after that convincing success.

'We won't know about Mandesha until the last minute,' said the Aga Khan's racing manager Georges Rimaud.

'She is going to work at the beginning of the week and we will probably make a decision the day after.'
