Deauville calling for progressive Almeraq
Given how impressive he was a hefty rise in the weights was on the cards and he has been put up a stone by the assessor.
Haggas now holds Group-race aspirations for the Shadwell-owned three-year-old, but a tilt at the Ayr Gold Cup next month has not been ruled out.
'We've put him in a Listed race at Deauville, so that is a possibility,' said Haggas.
'He went up 14lb for his win the other day so he will get in the Ayr Gold Cup now.
'I'll put him in it. We hope that he's going to reach dizzier heights than that at some point at this stage.'

Argentine Tango booked for Lowther Stakes bid
The Mattmu filly has kept on improving all season, winning a Listed race at Newmarket before finishing third to Venetian Sun in the Duchess of Cambridge Stakes. Last week at Goodwood she found only the Ger Lyons-trained Lady Iman too good in the Molecomb Stakes over five furlongs and will step back up to six at York for the Great Habton trainer. 'She's come out of Goodwood really well. She's tough, she must be because she's had seven races now and keeps coming back for more,' said Easterby. 'You get racehorses every now and again who just want to gallop and she is one of them. 'She'll go back up to six furlongs now, she definitely runs in the Lowther next and she won't be without a chance. 'She's been a bit of a star for us already this season.'
