R1 – PRIX DE L’ISLE BRIAND – 2400m (a1 1/2m) – TURF – Group 3 Aqps – Flat – EUR € 37.000
1. KAMARO D’HUEZ – Confirmed the promise of his debut 3rd by winning last time and should
have more to offer. Keep safe
2. KARROTS – Did not go unnoticed when finishing 5th on debut and is likely to have come on for
that experience, so could get into the picture
3. KONFINOISE – Runner-up on debut to KIRSTAL DU SEUIL (5) before going one better last
time. Will play a leading role
4. KEL TEL – Surprised everyone by making a winning debut at Saint-Brieuc and would’ve gained
plenty from that experience. Can repeat
5. KRISTAL DU SEUIL – Debut winner who ought to be better than the form of her last-start 4th
suggests. Could pose a threat
Summary : KEL TEL (4) jumps in class to Group III level after a winning debut but is open to any
amount of improvement, so could be up to it. She is taken to preserve her 100% record at the
expense of fellow last-start winners KONFINOISE (3) and KAMARO D’HUEZ (1), both of whom
confirmed the promise of their debuts and have added experience.

KEL TEL (4) – KONFINOISE (3) – KAMARO D’HUEZ (1) – KRISTAL DU SEUIL (5)
R2 – PRIX SEA BIRD – 1300m (a6 1/2f) – TURF – Condition Race – Class 3 – Flat – EUR € 12.000
1. JELIEL – Has yet to win a race but was not disgraced when third in a handicap last time out.
Fourth in a claimer in penultimate start. Might place
2. MADDOX – Unreliable and was well beaten in a claimer last time out on the PSF. Better on turf
and could be the surprise package of the race
3. VIVERNUS – Good debut win on the PSF but has not been as good since. Drop in distance
could suit and is not out of it
4. MUON – Has not shown much in two starts on the PSF. Tries the turf and is capable of vast
improvement
5. MICHELANGELO – Very disappointing handicap form. Has done better in these types of races
and can fight out the finish
6. ZINDERELLA – Promising fourth on debut on the PSF but has not backed that up with last two
starts on the turf. Has a winning chance in this line-up
7. TROIS POINT HUIT – Has been a disappointment in handicap since last claimer win. Distance
suited and capable of playing a minor role
8. ARYA – Has not shown much in three starts on the turf. She is capable of improvement but
others are preferred
9. TWO TWO TWO – Not disgraced when fourth in a handicap last time out but only win was in a
claimer. Has a place chance
10. KAMETA – Improved last run when fourth over this distance at Chantilly on the PSF. Tries the
turf but look the one to beat
Summary : KAMETA (10) showed nice improvement when fourth on the PSF last time out and
that could be the pick of form but she has to prove she takes to the turf. MICHELANGELO (5) has
been disappointing in handicaps but does better in these races and has a winning chance.
ZINDERELLA (6) has not backed up the debut on the PSF but is capable of improvement and not
out of it. VIVERNUS (3) drops in distance and deserves respect in this line-up.

R3 – PRIX DE FENEU – 3000m (a1 7/8m) – TURF – Condition Race – Flat – EUR € 18.500
1. JUSTUNE STAR – Consistent filly with solid form credentials and race fitness/sharpness on
her side. Will fight for victory
2. INDIANA AULMES – Lightly raced but talented mare who has won three of her four starts.
Respected on her reappearance
3. JAINA KELLE – Out of sorts at present but does have some interesting form references, so
could have a role to play
4. JOLIE MANS – Rediscovered her form and consistency on the flat prior to her subsequent
layoff. May need the outing
5. ICONE D’ATHOU – Inconsistent mare who showed little to get excited about on her
reappearance (7th). Others preferred
6. IMPERIALE TRESOR – Improved with the benefit of a comeback run to finish 2nd last time.
Must confirm that form to feature
7. JOYCE DU SEUIL – Winner on debut last year, so obviously not devoid of ability. Was 5th on
her reappearance and is likely to improve for that outing
Summary : JUSTUNE STAR (1) has performed with exemplary regularity and should once again
fight for victory. INDIANA AULMES (2) has shown considerable means, winning her last two
starts of 2022, and is likely to be competitive on her reappearance if ready to go after a 10-month
absence. JOYCE DU SEUIL (7) has undeniable quality and will have more to offer with the
benefit of a pleasing (5th) comeback run under her belt. JAINA KELLE (3) will attract the lovers of
outsiders.

R4 – PRIX FRANCE GALOP – 1300m (a6 1/2f) – TURF – Handicap – Class 4 – Flat – EUR € 12.000
1. GOLD PLAYER – Disappointing last run when sixth in a handicap. Drop in distance could suit
and is clearly not out of it
2. IRBIS – Yet to win a race but has just come off a much-improved run when third in a handicap.
Has a winning chance with further improvement likely
3. LAMORNA COVE – On a long losing streak since only win but is knocking at the door off this
handicap mark and can go one better
4. GLORIOUS BAY – Disappointing last run when tenth in a handicap. Was knocking hard at the
door with three runner-up runs in a row and can bounce back to win
5. ILLUMINATING – Has yet to win after 23 starts and was a disappointing tenth in a handicap
last time out. Capable of an upset on best form
6. KENDRA – Very disappointing form since winning in October 2022. Races off a much lower
mark than that handicap win but is best watched for now
7. RED NUDE ROUGE – On a long losing streak since only win but has been fair of late and can
contest the finish this time
8. ACREGATE – Has yet to win a race and he has been thrashed in handicaps all year. Needs
major improvement to win this race
9. HELLO IS YOU – Unreliable and was well beaten last time out. He is getting close to his last
winning mark but is best watched this time
10. GHAYADH – Has lost his way of late with four modest recent handicap runs. Capable of doing
better and might place
11. FAMILY SMILE – Has yet to win a race and was only tenth in a handicap last time out. Needs
to find a few lengths to win this race
12. GORL PIT – Much improved last run when fifth. That was on the PSF and could be better on
that surface. Might place
13. COVADONGA – Has yet to win after 24 starts and has struggled in last four handicaps.
Needs to find a few lengtsh to win
14. JAVA JAMES – Has yet to win after 16 attempts. Well beaten in four starts this year and
needs major improvement to win
Summary : A tough race to be confident in. LAMORNA COVE (3) is the form horse with two
good recent runner-up runs but has not won in some time. RED NUDE ROUGE (7) has shown
improvement of late and could do even better this time. GLORIOUS BAY (4) is surely better than
the last run would suggest and could bounce back and win over this distance. IRBIS (2) showed
improvement when third in a handicap last time out and has a winning chance.

R5 – PRIX TREVE (CHMPT PARIS TURF DES APP. & J. JOCK.) – 2700m (a1 11/16m) – TURF – Condition Race – Class 3 – Flat – EUR € 12.000
1. BALDO – Did not show much when tenth on debut and did not much better when fifth in a
claimer last time out. Tries further but others are preferred
2. KELPIE – Not disgraced in last two starts in handicaps. Steps up in distance and should
contest the finish once again
3. CARVANA – Good last run when runner-up over 2100m. Did better last year but could be
regaining that form and the extra distance should suit nicely. Can go one better
4. ACATANA – Has only been modest in her three starts so far. Needs to do more to win but has
scope for improvement
5. RISKY LIGHT – Holding her form of late and was not disgraced with some fourth-place
finishes. Proven over the distance and is not out of it
6. EAU DE COLOGNE – Disappointing last two runs. Did better in two runs before that and has a
winning chance in this small field
7. MA BEREZINA – Not disgraced when fourth on debut over this distance but has regressed in
two runs since and is probably best watched for now
Summary : CARVANA (3) showed promise last year and his runner-up run last time out indicated
he may be regaining his best form and if he does find his best form he will be very hard to beat in
this line-up. EAU DE COLOGNE (6) seems better than the last two runs and could run well this
distance. KELPIE (2) is holding form and should contest the finish again. RISKY LIGHT (5) is
proven over this distance and is not out of it.

R6 – PRIX DE MONTREUIL SUR MAINE – 1400m (a7f) – TURF – Claiming – Flat – EUR € 15.000
1. AROWN – Unreliable but capable colt who will benefit from his rider’s 2,5kg allowance. Ought
to be competitive
2. FULLTIME SPEED – Undeniably capable but does appear to have gone off the boil. Could
have a say here on his best form
3. GRAND FETARD – Was in good form prior to his last start (7th) but is better than that outing
suggests. Capable of better
4. GEMCUTTER – Consistent filly who returned to winning ways at Vittel last time. Looks well
placed here to win again
5. MASTER GEORGES – Looks out of his depth here and has been out of form for some time
now, so his chances are limited. Ignore
6. CACIOTTA – Unreliable filly but she is not incapable of getting a look in here in a race of this
nature. Outsider
7. ALIGHT – Has been struggling for some time now and is unlikely to trouble the judge here, so
can be ruled out
8. ALMOND CHOUQUETTE – Has blown hot and cold recently but should remain competitive,
with the booking of Maxime Guyon a boost to her chances. Respect
9. OUI JE L ADORE – Consistent performer this year with respectable form references. Has only
a place chance here though
Summary : GEMCUTTER (4) is in very good order and arrives here fresh off the back of her
victory at Vittel last time. She is more than capable of confirming that form and is taken to follow
up at the expense of ALMOND CHOUQUETTE (8) who, with Maxime Guyon in the saddle, is
likely to fight for victory. GRAND FETARD (3) should not be condemned for a disappointing
recent outing and remains capable of having a say at this level. AROWN (1) is struggling to
regain his best form but is not without a chance.

R7 – PRIX LINAMIX – 2700m (a1 11/16m) – TURF – Claiming – Class 4 – Flat – EUR € 16.000
1. BLUE SWAN – Fair form in four starts this year. Not disgraced when fourth in a claimer last
time out and has a winning chance in this line-up
2. QUICK FLASH – Fair recent runs in claimers and is best around this distance. He has a
winning chance over this course and distance
3. NOBODY’S – Holding his form well and is a winner of a claimer. Distance suited and looks
likely to contest the finish yet again
4. BEAU ET ROYAL – Has not run a flat race since 2013 and last ran in jumps race in 2019.
Returns from a lengthy break and is best watched this time
5. ZARICA – Very much at home in claimers and has been in very good form all year. Capable of
making it four wins in a row
6. JAZZMAN FLEURY – 26 starts without a win and was only ninth the last time he contested a
claimer. Others are much preferred
7. ADAMANTIUM – Runner-up on debut but did not repeat when seventh in second start. Returns
from a very lengthy break and is likely to need the run
8. HALIMI – Won a claimer in February but has only been fair since then. More needed tow in but
can finish in the money
9. MYDAVI – Has struggled in three handicap starts since winning a handicap but is distance
suited and has run well in a claimer before. Could be the surprise package of the race
Summary : QUICK FLASH (2) has been fair of late in claimers and should run very well over this
course and distance. ZARICA (5) has been excellent in claimers for some time now and has
every chance of completing four wins in a row. NOBODY’S (3) has won a claimer and is distance
suited and not out of it. BLUE SWAN (1) did not run badly when fourth in a claimer last time out
and deserves some respect.

R8 – PRIX JEAN SAUVAGE – 1400m (a7f) – TURF – Divised Handicap – Class 4 – Flat – EUR € 16.000
1. ITMAN – Undeniably capable but appears to have gone off the boil recently so must reaffirm.
Others preferred
2. BEACON TOWERS – Inconsistent mare who continues to blow hot and cold recently.
Unreliable but has sufficient means
3. WHIPPIERRE – An unreliable sort but is not incapable of staking a claim in a race of this
nature. Dangerous to dismiss
4. MINIKING – Disappointing last start having maintained a good level of form and consistency
prior to that. Capable
5. PODIA DAZ – Unreliable but seldom finishes far off the mark on a going day. Hard to trust but
is as hard to rule out
6. ACHKI – Showed signs of improvement last time and could get a look in if confirming that form.
Place chance
7. VEGA DREAM – Confirmed in this category and boasts solid form references. Looks a serious
contender for success
8. DANDY COOL – Consistent performer in this class and has been in good form of late. Should
have a role to play here
9. TWIN BOY – Has rediscovered form recently and could have a role to play here on current
form. Not taken lightly
10. LE GITAN – Struggling for some time now and not likely to trouble the judge here. Others
make a lot more appeal
11. HYGROVE BEC – Has looked distinctly ordinary for some time now, so his chances are
limited even at this level. Ignore
12. STAR LUCE – Finding it difficult to regain any form or consistency and not likely to have a say
in the finish. Overlook
13. CAP SKIRRING – Arrives in good shape and, with the help of her rider’s 1,5kg allowance, is
likely to play a leading role. Include
Summary : Consistent VEGA DREAM (7) is proven at this level and offers the most guarantees
of these runners, so could find success. DANDY COOL (8) fits a similar profile and should remain
competitive in this category. He’s likely to fight for victory, so too is CAP SKIRRING (13) who
arrives in good form and is dangerous under just 49,5kg. BEACON TOWERS (2) was unlucky
last time but is capable of staking a claim, as are TWIN BOY (9) and MINIKING (4) who have
shown enough to not be ignored.

R9 – PRIX DES HAUTS DE FRANCE – 2100m (a1 5/16m) – TURF – Divised Handicap – Class 4 – Flat – EUR € 15.000
1. SONDERBAR – Only win was on the PSF last year. Has struggled in his four starts this year
and others are much preferred
2. COIGNY – Disappointing in two starts since a handicap win. Clearly needed last run and could
start improving. Can upset
3. ARMORIGENE – Struggling of late but did win a handicap in February on the PSF. May prefer
that surface and others are preferred
4. DOUVILLE – On a very long losing streak and is probably at very best over a bit further but is
threatening to win off her current mark
5. AYANA – Well tried this year and did win a handicap in May but has really struggled since then
and others are preferred
6. PERFECT LIAISON – On a very long losing streak since only win. Has been struggling of late
and others are preferred
7. PRINCE PEDRO – Has yet to win a race and was well beaten in three handicap start. Needs
major improvement to win this race
8. KENOR – On a long losing streak but has improved of late when stepped up in distance and
has a winning chance
9. UNRUFFLED – Disappointing form of late and best run of the year was on the PSF. Needs to
find a few lengths to win this race
10. FAN ZONE – In fair form of late and is fit and ready for this race. Last two handicap wins were
off higher marks than this so deserves respect
11. QUIZ EVOLUTION – Last win was on the PSF and he does seem to prefer that surface of late
but is quite capable of winning this race if in the mood
12. PRINCEDESCHAMPS – Well tried this year and has struggled. Capable of doing better but is
best watched for now
13. IVISHAK RIVER – Has yet to win a race after 30 attempts but has some fair form off this mark
and is capable of earning some minor money
14. JANE VIOLETTA – Has yet to win a race but was not disgraced when runner-up in a
handicap in her penultimate start and could be the surprise package of the race
Summary : A weak race and we have opted with DOUVILLE (4) who is threatening to break a
long losing streak. KENOR (8), his rival is also attempting to end a losing run has improved of as
late and should be a lively danger. QUIZ EVOLUTION (11) does seem to prefer the PSF these
days but is also not out of it. FAN ZONE (10) has some fair form of late and has won off higher
marks so deserves the utmost respect.
