Trainer David Menuisier will line up a French jockey to get to know Wonderful Tonight ahead of a shot at the Prix de L'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp in October.
The plan was announced after the four-year-old, an 8-1 shot for the Arc, did nothing more than was expected of her when revelling in rain-softened ground to win the Lillie Langtry Stakes at Glorious Goodwood by two lengths from Tribal Craft.
It was a seventh winner of the week for William Buick, but he will not available in the Arc because he will be claimed to partner Derby and King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes winner Adayar for his boss Charlie Appleby.
