Olivier Peslier gave Spirito Del Vento a great ride to win the Prix Daniel Wildenstein at Longchamp for the second successive year.
Dermot Weld's Famous Name attempted to make all and set a frantic early pace with Sageburg sat in his slipstream.
Soumillon looked confident on Sageburg as he pulled out to challenge but Peslier timed his run to perfection on Jean-Marie Beguigne's five-year-old.
Peslier said: "He ran a good race last time and he always shows that great finishing speed."
Trincot swooped late to land the Prix Dollar for Philippe Demercastel and Ioritz Mendizabal.
