Gris de Gris produced a mild upset when kicking off the European festivities earlier today in winning the Gr-II Prix du Muguet, stalking a slow early pace then blowing past the leader at the top of the stretch, drawing off to an easy, albeit slow win. Turfrose closed from the back of the pack to finish second and favorite Spirito Del Vento third.
Tune in later for details, images and on Saturday for the next recap.
