French flying at Royal Ascotpublished at 15:50 British Summer Time 21 June 2017
Qemah ran out a second French winner of the day when landing the Duke of Cambridge Stakes following the earlier success of Le Brivido.
The 5-2 favourite, ridden by Gregory Benoist for Jean-Claude Rouget, held off the fast-finishing outsider Aljazz by three quarters of a length.
It was a second Royal Ascot win for the four-year-old Qemah, owned by Al Shaqab Racing, after victory in the Coronation Stakes last year.
Compatriot Usherette, successful in 2016, struggled for room before closing to finish another neck away.
