French test for Elliott

Jockey Andrew Elliott is set to keep the ride on Lesson In Humility in Sunday's Prix Maurice de Gheest at Deauville.The North Yorkshire-based rider will be vying for a first Group One success, but has ridden the four-year-old filly on her last 11 starts, including when finishing a close-up second to Serious Attitude, who is set to renew rivalry in France, in the Summer Stakes at York last time."He's a most underrated jockey, and I'm sure he'll ride her," said trainer Alan Jarvis, who has assumed control of Karl Burke's string while the Middleham handler awaits his appeal hearing against a 12-month disqualification."He's a decent lad and works ever so hard - he deserves to a win a big race like this. He's never let down Karl in the past and I'm sure that'll be the case at the weekend."Jarvis, who is Burke's father-in-law, added: "It was a really good effort, with that weight, at York and you'd have to say the (six-and-a-half-furlong) trip should be fine for her in France."Since she's been with me she's been so genuine- as tough as old boots. If things go her way, I'm sure she'd run a very big race."
