Argenterie is set to step up to Group Two company following her likeable victory at Salisbury on Thursday.

Trainer Marcus Tregoning is targeting the Shadwell Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket on September 23 for his highly-regarded daughter of Archipenko.

She had no difficulty in opening her account with an all-the-way win after she had shown plenty of promise on her debut at Glorious Goodwood, where she was third to subsequent Group Two winner Rhododendron, trained by Aidan O'Brien.

"We're very pleased with her. It was pretty straightforward," said Tregoning.

"She looked highly promising, obviously it gets harder from now on but I think she may well be up to it.

"I think we'll stick to seven furlongs for her next start and if all goes well we might step her up to a mile.

"She's in some early-closing races, we'll take it step by step, and it would be Newmarket next, for the Rockfel, I'd say."
