Prognosis good for Cirrus Des Aigles recovery
The eight-year-old clinched his sixth Group One triumph with a determined display under Christophe Soumillon, but it was soon clear all was not well and the Belgian rider quickly jumped off the gelding’s back after passing the post.
Cirrus Des Aigles was sound enough to walk into the winner’s enclosure and was able to travel home to Chantilly yesterday morning. X-rays have revealed the he has not suffered any serious injuries, much to his trainer’s relief.
