Criquette Head-Maarek will be unfazed by whatever the elements throw at Treve when she runs in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in three weeks' time.

The three-year-old filly shot towards the forefront of the betting for Europe's premier middle-distance race after a startling display in the Prix Vermeille on Sunday.

Frankie Dettori's companion came from a long way back in the Longchamp Group One, but Treve still struck by nearly two lengths in a quick time.

The unbeaten daughter of Motivator has already won on variants of ground in a four-race career, with her Chantilly-based handler convinced that the conditions will not be an issue back at Longchamp on October 6.

Head-Maarek said: "I do not think the ground was that soft in the Vermeille - it was sticky and a little bit yielding.

"She has won on soft and on good ground, so I would not be concerned about what it will be like on Arc day."

The Sheikh Joaan Al Thani-owned Treve will now have a mini-break before she returns to training for the Arc, for which she is joint-favourite with some bookmakers.
