Friendly Soul held off all challengers to head a Gosden one-two and claim the Prix de l’Opera Longines at ParisLongchamp, in a notable succcess for jockey Kieran Shoemark.
A 9/1 shot, John and Thady Gosden’s filly came into the Group One event in form having won her last two starts at a lesser grade.
She stepped up to the top level this time and seemed to find little hardship in the testing ground, rounding the home turn in front and pressing on to score from stablemate Running Lion, giving Shoemark a first Group One since stepping into the shoes of Frankie Dettori at Clarehaven Stables.
