MAROIS EX-CELEBRATION FOR O'BRIEN.

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...;Brien&day=Sun

Quote:
Excelebration took advantage of a Group One race with no Frankel in opposition by landing the Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville for Aidan O'Brien.

Ridden by substitute jockey Christophe Soumillon after Ryan Moore was ruled out because of a fall, the four-year-old raced in mid-division for much of the Group One contest as Elusive Kate took them along.

The leader kept on strongly but she succumbed when Cityscape and Excelebration tackled her entering the final furlong and it was the Ballydoyle runner who proved strongest. He was well on top at the line and scored by a length and a quarter.
