1. VERCORS – Son of Invincible Spirit, the dam was unraced. Soumillon booked takes the eye.
Good run expected, Market support should be noted
2. YOKEN – Newcomer by Goken, the dam was a winner. Nice profile, will be better for this run
but not discounted. Keep an eye on the betting
3. FOLLOW ME – Newcomer by Shalaa, the dam won. Can improve for this outing, any market
support should be noted
4. EVADE – Newcomer by Wootton Bassett, the dam never ran. From the Fabre yard, he will be
expected to make a winning debut. Live chance
5. TREIZIEME – Unraced by Le Brivado, the dam was placed. Top yard and a nice run can be
anticipated. Watch the betting
6. NOPE NEVER – By No Nay Never, the dam was unraced. From a good yard, can be involved
on debut, market best watched
Summary : Small field lineup for a newcomers race, EVADE (4) has a taking profile and this son
of Wootton Bassett might be the best option, he has some lofty entries later in the year and will
be well-trained for this debut run. VERCORS (1) has the assistance of Christophe Soumillon and
is from a good stable, he will know his job and should be on the premises. NOPE NEVER (6) has
a choice profile and should be on the premises on this debut outing. TREIZIEME (5) is worth
watching in the betting, he is from the Fabre powerhouse.

R14 – PRIX ROLAND DE CHAMBURE – 1400m (a7f) – TURF – Condition Race – Listed – Flat – EUR € 60.000
1. ZABIARI – Won on only run over 1300m on May 25th. Can improve a good deal from that and
is a player
2. BEAUVATIER – Won very cosily in a Class 2 race at Saint-Cloud in May last time. Sets a high
standard
3. GRAND SON OF CALYX – Won on the last run over 1200m at Saint-Cloud on May 1st. Looks
progressive and should play a role
4. MAYMAY – UK raider, unplaced over 1400m at Ascot (UK) on June 24th in a Listed race. Has
yet to win and place chance at best
Summary : BEAUVATIER (2) will likely start as the favourite after an impressive win at SaintCloud in late May. He will be hard to overcome. ZABIARI (1) did everything that was required
when scoring on his debut, he can improve a good deal from that and looks the main rival.
MAYMAY (4) is still a maiden after four runs, trained in the UK. He needs a personal best to win
and will be vying for a place position. GRAND SON OF CALYX (3) was a decisive winner by 4L
when last seen in early May. He deserves a try in pattern company.

R15 – PRIX DE LISIEUX – 1200m (a6f) – TURF – Condition Race – Newcomers – Flat – EUR € 50.000
1. TEMPLETON – Newcomer by Le Havre, the dam was high class won at Group 1 level. Can not
be overlooked, any market support should be noted
2. MACU – Daughter of Siyouni, the dam won. Might be better for this run, market best guide for
clues
3. MONTE SANCHA – Newcomer by Frankel, the dam never ran. Leading stable and looks the
part on paper. Bold run expected
4. PARTIR – By Zarak, the dam was a winner. Can be competitive on debut outing. Monitor the
betting closely
5. TEERAN – By Kingman, the dam was placed. This filly is related to a Listed winner and is from
a good yard. Market best guide for clues
6. BREIZHY GIRL – Newcomer by Birchwood, might be better for this run. Monitor the betting for
any support
7. JASNA’S SECRET – Filly by Galiway, has Soumillon on top, any betting moves should be
watched closely
8. SHADY LADY – Newcomer by Blue Point, the dam won. Will be well educated for a nice debut.
Watch the betting closely
Summary : Well-bred fillies here making their debuts. MONTE SANCHA (3) is a daughter of
Frankel and can be expected to get off the mark on her debut. TEERAN (5) is related to a winner
in the Listed class and should be well-forward for this opening run. SHADY LADY (8) is by the
speedy first-season sire Blue Point, who is sending out plenty of winners, she should be watched
for any market support. PARTIR (4) might fare best of the remainder.

R16 – PRIX DE LA PLACE MORNY – 1200m (a6f) – TURF – Divised Handicap – Class 2 – Flat – EUR € 53.000
1. DEEP HOPE – 3rd two runs ago over 1400m at Chantilly in late March. Can make the frame
2. RAYSTEVE – Fair 3rd over 1200m on the last run on May 10th. Very rarely runs a bad race of
late. Player
3. BAILEYS BLUES – Nice 2nd over 1200m on the last run in early May. Will be fit and fresh from
a short break. Live chance
4. IMPITOYABLE – 3rd two runs back over 1200m at Chantilly on April 17th. Looks competitive
on form
5. MUBAALEGH – 2nd on the last run over 1000m in late May. Might find a few of these too good
6. CHIRIMIRI – Fair 6th last time at Angers when not having a clear run, won before that over
1200m in May. In the mix
7. WHITE PLATIN – Unplaced the last three runs, won before that over 1400m in April. Looks
vulnerable
8. BACCHILIDE – Out of the frame the last two runs, 4th before that over 1000m in late May.
Others rate higher
9. MR GOODNIGHT – Ran 4th on the last outing over 1350m at Angers in late May. Unlikely to
trouble some of these
10. FLEUR DE BAILEYS – Fair 2nd three runs back over 1200m in mid-April. Handily weighted
so rates a player
11. BABA SIM – 3rd three runs ago over 1200m at Chantilly in mid-April. Can not be overlooked
12. AL ULA – Unplaced the last three runs, won before that over 1400m in late April. Needs to get
back on track
13. TRUE ROMANCE – 4th on the last run over 1000m at Dieppe on June 16th. Needs more to
be on the premises
14. SIRIUS SLEW – Ran 4th on the last run over 1400m in late June. Has work to do to feature
15. KHAN – Has been consistent of late, 3rd over 1200m on the last run in early June. Ought to
be involved
16. VITARE – Unplaced last time over 1500m at this track in January. Best watched on return
from a break
Summary : BAILEYS BLUES (3) is the tentative selection in an open handicap, he was a good
second when last seen over 1200m in early May, he has been freshened up for this and looks the
best option. RAYSTEVE (2) is capable of being a live threat, he has been running well this year
and is usually on the premises at the finish. CHIRIMIRI (6) did not get a clear passage when sixth
on his last outing, a winner before that, he is the best each-way option. DEEP HOPE (1) is
another to be considered from a place option despite having top-weight.

R17 – HARAS D’ETREHAM PRIX JEAN PRAT – 1400m (a7f) – TURF – Group 1 – Group – Flat – EUR € 400.000
1. NIGHT OF LIGHTNING – Won at Compiegne last time in a maiden over 1600m in June. Looks
safely held
2. BREIZH SKY – Won over 1400m last time on June 11th, 3rd before that in a Group1 at
Parislongchamp ( French 2000 Guineas) Place chance
3. HI ROYAL – Nice 3rd in the Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh ( IRE) last time over 1600m in
late May. Can be in the shake up
4. INDESTRUCTIBLE – 5th at Ascot last time in a Group 1 race. Has to improve a good deal to
be involved
5. BELBEK – 5th last time in a Group 3 race to BREIZH SKY (2) over 1400m in mid-June. Others
rate higher
6. CHARYN – 3rd over 1600m at Ascot (UK) in Group 1 St James’s Palace Stakes when
CHALDEAN (7) was 2nd on the last run in June. Live chance
7. CHALDEAN – Good 2nd in the St James’s Palace Stakes (Group1 ) when last seen at
Ascot(UK) in June, and won the English 2000 Guineas in May over 1600m before that. Form pick
8. SHOULDVEBEENARING – Unplaced last time over 1300m at Ascot (UK) in June, 2nd before
that over 1300m in a Group 2 race at Haydock. Consider
9. GOOD GUESS – 2nd over 1400m last time in a Group 3 race to BREIZH SKY (2) on June
11th. Can make the frame
10. SAUTERNE – 2nd in a Group 2 last time over 1600m in early June, 3rd before that over
1600m in a Group 1. Others make more sense
11. HABANA – Non Partant
12. SHOWAY – 4th over 1400m last time in a Group 3 behind BREIZH SKY (2) in early June.
Others are better equipped
13. MEDITATE – 4th in a Group 1 last time over 1600m at Ascot(UK) in June, and 2nd before that
over 1600m at the Curragh (Irish 1000 Guineas) in May. Merits consideration
Summary : A really strong line up for this intriguing event. CHALDEAN (7) has been competing
at the top table all season. He won the English 2000 Guineas at Newmarket (Group 1) in May
and then was a good second at Ascot in the Group 1 St James’s Palace Stakes recently. He
looks like the one to beat. CHARYN (6) looks to be improving, he was a good third only a neck
behind CHALDEAN (7) when they met at Ascot and is probably the biggest danger. HI ROYAL
(3) can not be overlooked, he has shown he deserves to be competing in these types of races, a
good third when last seen in the Irish 2000 Guineas gives him every chance of making this
interesting. GOOD GUESS (9) can be better suited by this extra distance, than the 1400m last
time.

R18 – PRIX AMANDINE – 1400m (a7f) – TURF – Condition Race – Listed – Flat – EUR € 55.000
1. FANCY ME – 5th in a Listed race on the last outing over 1600m on June 11th. Capable of
outside place chance
2. KNOCK ON – Nice effort when 3rd two runs ago over 1400m in a Listed race on May 18th.
Others rate higher
3. LA GALIOTE – Two unplaced runs in Listed races, won before that over 1500m at this track in
January in a Class 2 event. Might find a few too good
4. SPIRIT GAL – Good 3rd at this track in a Group 3 race over 1400m on April 6th two runs ago.
Ought to be in the shake up
5. PALERMA – Good 3rd two runs ago in a Group 3 race over 1600m in mid-April. Can not be
discounted
6. VASDA – 6th on only run this year over 1600m at Lyon Parilly in May. Looks vulnerable
7. RITOURNELLE – 2nd at this track in a Group 3 two runs ago over 1400m on April 6th. Capable
of winning
8. NAJWAA – Won at Saint-Cloud last time over 1300m on June 6th. Up in class and more is
needed
9. SIVKA BURKA – Won at Angers last time out over 1350m in a Class 2 race. Can be
competitive
Summary : RITOURNELLE (7) was unplaced in a Group 1 last time, but a good second at this
track in a Group 3 race in April makes her the form choice in this. SPIRIT GAL (4) is a live threat,
she was 2L behind in third when they both ran in the Group 3 race here in April. PALERMA (5)
can be on the premises, she has been placed in Group and Listed class twice and might well be
destined for another place position. SIVKA BURKA (9) takes a step up in class but is very honest
and will give a good account of herself.
