DURING the winter months trainer Francis Graffard and owner-breeder Princess Zahra Aga Khan had a problem on their hands. How to keep apart their two outstanding older horses, Calandagan and Daryz, during the season to come. A joyous problem, but a problem none the less.

Last Sunday, in the 31.94 seconds that it took Daryz to cover the three furlongs of Longchamp’s home straight at the end of the Group 1 Prix Ganay World Pool By PMU, that problem was solved.
