Utmost Respect looks likely to bypass a couple of weekend engagements in favour of the Qatar Prix de la Foret at Longchamp on October 4.
The four-year-old ran out an impressive winner of the Chipchase Stakes at Newcastle a couple of starts ago and has since run with credit in two Group One events.
He was beaten less than a length into third by African Rose in the Ladbrokes Sprint C
up at Doncaster and while he is entered in Saturday's Thoroughbred Open Sprint at Great Leighs and the John Guest Diadem Stakes at Ascot on Sunday, a trip to France is on the cards.
"I don't think he will be running anywhere this weekend to be honest as I'm looking at the Foret at Longchamp the week after," said Fahey.
"He ran really well at Doncaster, but he is still a little bit inexperienced as he hasn't had a lot of racing.
"Paul (Hanagan) said he got stuck out on a limb a little bit and the race just seemed to happen away from him. Then when he did get going, it was all over. If I could find out what the ground was going to be like at Longchamp that would help me make my decision as he does want a bit of cut.
"I haven't discussed it with the owners yet and nothing is set in stone yet, but I am favouring France at the moment."
Jimmy Fortune admits connections are still unsure how good Rainbow View could turn out to be as she attempts to maintain her unbeaten record in Saturday's Meon Valley Stud Fillies' Mile at Ascot.
John Gosden's daughter of Dynaformer has barely been asked a question in three starts to date, winning her first two races by six lengths before claiming the May Hill Stakes at Doncaster hard on the bridle.
She is now set to step up to Group One company for the first time at the weekend and Fortune believes it will take a good filly to stop her going in again.
"She has been impressive in all her starts and I tried to be as easy on her as I could at Doncaster last time, thinking that the Fillies' Mile is just around the corner," the jockey said.
"She did it very well and while she hasn't met anything spectacular yet, she couldn't have done it any easier, so you would have to be impressed by her."
Luca Cumani admits a place may be the best he can hope for with Fantasia.
The daughter of Sadler's Wells ran out an impressive winner of the Group Three Prestige Stakes at Glorious Goodwood last time.
However, Cumani has been very impressed with Rainbow View. "Fantasia is very well, but to be honest, the John Gosden filly looks unbeatable," said Cumani.
