Exceed And Excel is enjoying an outstanding year with his juveniles, currently sitting atop Great Britain and Ireland’s leading sires of two year olds list with 18 winners.
On Saturday his daughter Piccadilly Filly extended her winning ways to France, making all to land the Listed Prix de la Vallee d'Auge at Deauville.
Trained in Great Britain by Edward Creighton, Piccadilly Filly broke her maiden in tremendous style two weeks ago, winning at Lingfield by seven lengths. She is now likely to step up to Pattern company for her next start.
Bred by Stock Vale Limited, she is out of the winning Turtle Island mare Tortue, a half-sister to G1 Prix Royal Oak winner Tiraaz.
Exceed And Excel is also sire of another two-year-old Stakes winner this year in Nideeb and a further five juvenile Black type performers.
