Miss France (horse)

After being restrained at the back of the field he moved forward to take the lead inside the final furlong and prevailed by a head from Lightning Thunder, despite appearing to idle in the closing stages.

Guyon struggled to obtain a clear run in the straight before finishing strongly to dead-heat for fifth place, one and three quarter lengths behind the winner Avenir Certain.

In August, Miss France finished second behind her stable companion Esoterique in the Group One Prix Rothschild at Deauville, with the British-trained favourite Integral in third place.

In October, Miss France returned to Newmarket for the Group One Sun Chariot Stakes in which she was one of four 7/2 co-favourites alongside Fintry, Esoterique and Integral.

After an absence of more than ten months, Miss France returned to the track in the Listed Prix de la Cochere at Longchamp on 6 September and finished second of the nine runners, a short neck behind the three-year-old winner Sonnerie.
