More classic success could await rider Dylan Browne McMonagle this weekend but before that there is an opportunity for him to storm to Group One glory in France on Tuesday evening.Ireland’s champion jockey travels to Longchamp for the Cygames Grand Prix de Paris, French racing’s €600,000 Bastille Day highlight, where he teams up with Limestone for his boss, Joseph O’Brien, in a race off at 7.15.Winner of Royal Ascot’s Queen’s Vase on his last start, Limestone drops back in trip for the mile-and-a-half contest that O’Brien won as a jockey 14 years ago on Imperial Monarch.That horse was one of five winners of the race for Aidan O’Brien, who relies on another Royal Ascot winner, Causeway. Ryan Moore’s mount renews rivalry with Ancient Egypt, whom he narrowly beat in the King Edward VII Stakes. The Irish horse sports first-time blinkers.A total of seven horses line up with the Epsom Derby runner-up Maltese Cross also travelling from England for William Haggas. A trio of home hopes include the Aga Khan Studs’s unbeaten Varandir as well as Alam, fifth to Constitution River in the French Derby. Browne McMonagle and O’Brien are represented by Sons And Lovers in the Group Two Prix Maurice De Nieuil after the big race. The partnership is also looking forward to Saturday’s Juddmonte Irish Oaks at the Curragh with their Epsom heroine Thundering On.The filly has subsequently finished only fourth to older rival Estrange in last month’s Pretty Polly Stakes but will return to 12-furlongs in the Curragh classic. Last year, Minnie Hauk was the 16th filly to complete the Oaks double. Thundering On, ridden by Dylan Browne McMonagle, on the way to winning the Epsom Oaks.
