Last to first Cloud completes memorable day for Jarnet in Foret

Moonlight Cloud produced arguably the performance of the day as she came from last to first to land the Prix de la Foret at Longchamp.

Trained by Freddie Head, Moonlight Cloud was completing a memorable day for veteran jockey Thierry Jarnet after his Arc win on Treve, trained by Head’s sister, Criquette.

Much like Treve, Moonlight Cloud came with a late burst to capture the prize but her acceleration was truly jaw-dropping as she easily caught and overtook the front-running Gordon Lord Byron, who was trying to defend his Foret title. However, the Haydock Sprint Cup winner had no answer to Moonlight Cloud’s change of gear and she ran out an easy three-length winner with Gordon Lord Byron fending off Garswood by a head for the runner-up prize.
