Chantilly, France (AFP) — Jockey Ryan Moore completed a career full house of all the major European classics as Irish favourite Diamond Necklace powered to victory in the French Oaks (Prix de Diane) at Chantilly on Sunday.
The unbeaten Aidan O’Brien-trained winner became the first filly from outside France to sweep the Prix Marcel Boussac (France’s leading two-year-old race for fillies), French 1000 Guineas and the French Oaks.
She joins among others legends Allez France and Zarkava, who both went on to win arguably Europe’s most prestigious race the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.
