Fancy Blue won a four-horse blanket finish and gave 21-year-old trainer Donnacha O’Brien a quick victory in the Group 1 Prix de Diane.

Ghaiyyath galloped them into the ground Sunday at Sandown, winning the Group 1 Eclipse Stakes by two lengths, and among “them” was the two-time Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winner Enable, who never looked a threat to Ghaiyyath while grinding out a second-place finish.
