Cirrus back to winning ways

Quote:
Cirrus Des Aigles returned to the winner's enclosure with victory in the La Coupe de Maisons-Laffitte.
Sent swiftly to the front by Christophe Soumillon, the Corine Barande-Barbe-trained gelding set just a steady pace through the early stages before being asked a few questions by Smoking Sun.
The pair went head-to-head from a furlong and a half out but Soumillon's mount asserted in the closing stages to win a shade cosily from Valley Jem, with Smoking Sun eventually third.
