Jockey Christophe Soumillon sent 15-1 Bold Silvano to the lead first time past the stands and he set fractions of 27.24, 53.44, and 1:18.64 over the good turf, while stalked by Cirrus des Aigles and 12-1 Songcraft. With half a mile to go, jockey Olivier Peslier sent Cirrus des Aigles to take over the lead, through 1 mile in 1:43.61. At the top of the stretch, Bold Silvano tired badly to finish last, with 8-1 Treasure Beach, 4th early, moving up to gain second through 1 1/4 miles in 2:07.21 before tiring as well. St Nicholas Abbey, 7th early, closed with a rush late but Cirrus des Aigles held him off to win by a neck in 2:31.30. It was another 3 1/2 lengths back to late-running 28-1 Jakkalberry third.
