Le Marmot began his three-year-old season in the Prix Greffulhe over 2100 m at Longchamp. Starting at odds of 3.9/1, he took the lead in the straight and drew away from his opponents to win by four lengths and one length from Wolverton and Soleil Noir. On 6 May at the same course, Le Marmot started 14/10 favourite for the Prix Hocquart over 2400 m in which he was opposed by High Sierra and Son of Love, who had finished first and second in the Prix Noailles. The colt raced just behind the leaders before accelerating clear of the field in the straight and winning by three lengths from High Sierra.
