Tony Pike’s challenge with Haussmann is to get the capable three-year-old to settle better in his races.
The Cambridge trainer will run the son of Pour Moi in Saturday’s Gr.3 Hynds Holdings Limited Bonecrusher Stakes (1400m) off a two-month break.
“He’s well and his biggest issue is that he gets too keen,” Pike said. “We’ll be riding him quietly at Ellerslie. He’s in the Derby, whether he’ll stay I’m not sure but we’ll be giving him every opportunity.”
