1. HAPPY AGAIN – Can build on latest 8th over 1800m in a Handicap at Clairefontaine. Should be
in the money. Include
2. SCAN FOR CHAMPAGNE – Is difficult to make a case for on latest form and would be a shock
winner. Pass by
3. BAKHILOVA – Placed 8th over 1400m in a Handicap last time and can get much closer this
time. Strong each way chance
4. FLOWERSPRING – Finished 4th three runs back but form since then has been on the decline
and is difficult to fancy. Pass by
5. RUMPLETEAZER – Finished 7th over 1200m in a Handicap at Chantilly on the 14th of this month
and can be expected to get much closer. Big chance
6. SOVEREIGN – Finished 8th in a Handicap at Clairefontaine on the 28th of June and has plenty
to find off that. No
7. BLACK MAMBA – Finished way back in 16th place last time over 1400m in a Handicap and is
hard to like on that alone. Pass by
8. NORONHA – Will need to progress on recent 7th over 1200m at Strasbourg to win this. Prefer
others
Summary: RUMPLETEAZER (5) is never too far adrift the winners and can be expected to be very
competitive in this. Strong each way chance. BAKHILOVA (3) has been racing in Handicaps in her
last two and should be able to finish in the money. Bright chance. HAPPY AGAIN (1) has shown
very little in five starts but surely has more to offer. Place chance. NORONHA (8) is a must for the
quartet.

1. ZOUZAL – Will need to progress on latest 8th over 1400m at La Teste but others are far preferred
for the win. Place chance
2. OUTRENOIR – Has shown absolutely zero in both runs to date and we can only hope and wait
for improvement. Pass by
3. TARMAK – Will need to do much more than debut 12th before being considered for any bets.
No
4. FUJI HANA – Improved to run 4th over 1350m last time and surely has plenty more to offer.
Strong each way chance
5. BOHEMOS – Improving, finished 2nd over 1600m in a claiming race at Clairefontaine on the 11th
of this month. Serious chance
6. SAWAF – A son of Jimmy Two Times that could need a few runs to tighten up and can therefore
be passed by on debut. Prefer others
7. BALIROS – Is by Chachnak out of a Dansili mare that is selected to make a winning debut. Well
related and should go close
8. MATHEO BELLO – Son of Threat out of a mare that only won one race. Could be able to make
his presence felt first time at school. Chance
9. DIAMONDS – She could make a sparkling debut but it is advisable to watch the betting trends
closer to race time. Daughter of Madhmoon
10. MEYUDINE’K – A daughter of Kendargent out of a Samum mare that more than likely will need
the first up run. Pass by
11. MAJESTIC HILL – Daughter of Pour Moi out of a Le Havre mare. Prefer others on debut for the
shortlist. Ignore
12. MIAIMAOU – Makes her debut and is by Master’s Spirit. She could place but it is advisable to
watch the betting trends
Summary: BALIROS (7) is a son of Chachnak out of a Dansili mare that could be above average.
Watch the betting. BOHEMOS (5) is improving, ran a good race last time finishing second and can
go one more. MIAIMAOU (12) is a daughter of Master’s Spirit that could be absolutely anything and
make her presence felt, big time, on debut. FUJI HANA (4) improved at the second time of asking
and can surely improve again. Bright chance.

C3 – PRIX JEANNE D’ARC – 2400m (a1m1/2) – TURF – Handicap – Flat – EUR € 17,000
1. WINDERMERE – Was a winner at his last run which was at Strasbourg over 2100m in a
Handicap. He must be taken seriously. Good chance
2. ALGOT – Won last two well, most recent victory was over 2400m at Chantilly on the 29th of last
month. Can be expected to reel off the hat trick. Strong win
3. LIYA CHOPE – She finished 8th over 2400m last time but won her penultimate start over 2500m
at Nancy. Capable but a tad erratic. Chance
4. CANDYMAN – Current form has been on the decline over various distances and others are far
preferred. Outsider. No
5. KITO – Finished 10th over 2700m last time and would be a shock winner. Others are preferred
for the shortlist. Pass by
6. FEE DU VIVIEN – Ignore recent 6th, finished 2nd at penultimate start and has each way claims
7. BELHAD JELOIS – Placed 6th over 2100m at Strasbourg on the 8th of this month in a Handicap
and will need to progress on that to feature
8. LIANE – She was a winner the last time at the races and can follow up. The victory came over
2350m on the 8th of July. Include
9. CARDINALE – Caught the eye when 2nd over 2350m at Strasbourg on the 8th of this month and
should be very competitive again
10. PASSAGE MESLAY – Placed 5th over 2400m at Wissembourg on the 8th of June. Include in
larger quartet perms only
11. COLT PILOT – Managed 9th place over 2100m last time and plenty more is needed than that
to threaten here. No
Summary: ALGOT (2) boasts some tremendous form having run 8 times for 3 wins and 3 places.
His last victory at Chantilly was good and he is confidently selected to follow up and reel off the hat
trick. WINDERMERE (1) is lightly raced, won early which was at his last start and can go on to win
more. Strong claims. FEE DU VIVIEN (6) can be forgiven for her last run when 6th and judged for
today, on the penultimate, attractive second. A must for all bets. LIANE (8) is one for the shortlist
and a must for the quartet. Solid last win.

1. LORD SPIRIT – Only managed 6th over 2700m in a Handicap at Le Touquet last time but was a
winner three races back. More needed now fo the win. Prefer others
2. HAYAMI – Placed 7th over 2000m at Strasbourg last time and much more is required for the win.
Unlikely winner
3. TRUST ON ME – Would be a huge result if winning when looking at latest form when closer to
last that first in many recent outings. No
4. SPIRITATO – Has had ten runs for not a place. Finished 6th over 2600m at Vitteaux but cannot
be fancied. No
5. RIVER LILLY – Holding form, finished 4th over 2100m at Saint-Cloud on the 21st of June and
can win. Good chance
6. STELLAR JAY – Needs serious improvement on overall form. Placed 9th over 1900m in
Handicap class last time. Pass by
7. CALAS QUEEN – Finished 4th over 1900m at Deauville in a Handicap on the 6th of this month.
Bright win chance
8. TRIPTAJIKA – Will need to build on latest 7th placing at Vichy over 2000m to feature here and
far prefer others. Small win chance, big place chance
9. BLEUSKY – Encouraging 3rd over 2250m last time and will be competitive if that effort was not
a flash in the pan. Chance
10. MONTASIA – Current form has been on the decline. Finished 10th at Parislongchamp over
1800m last time. Pass by
11. IVISHAK RIVER – Running well, finished 4th over 2250m at Parislongchamp on the 4th of July
and is a must for all bets. Good chance
12. CORAL SLIPPER – Finished 4th over 2000m in Handicap class at Strasbourg on the 8th of this
month. Could be the quartet value
13. SCHERWOOD – Never too far off the action, placed 3rd over 2350m at Strasbourg in a
Handicap on the 8th of this month. Good chance
14. FILZMOOSERIN – Taking forever to win the maiden and seems like she might not. Needs
serious improvement on form and cannot be fancied. No
15. STAMP THE GROUND – Last run a worry when way back in the field. Placed 2nd in penultimate
over 2150m at Wissembourg on the 8th of last month. Bright place chance
16. ACATANA – Managed 7th over 2350m at Strasbourg last time but plenty more is needed than
that to feature here. Pass by
Summary: CALAS QUEEN (7) is taking time to record her next victory but is fairly consistent and
should get it all right soon. Her last run when 4th at Deauville was encouraging that the next win is
near. RIVER LILLY (5) boasts consistent and good form. She notched up back-to-back victories
not long ago and has since then been in mustard form. Strong each way chance. BLEUSKY (9)
has a place chance. TRIPTAJIKA (8) is a must for the quartet.

C5 – PRIX DU GOLF DE L’ERMITAGE – 2100m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 4 Divided Handicap – Flat – EUR € 15,000
1. RONCHEROLLES – Unreliable but did show her best when winning a handicap at Châteaubriant
over 1950m on 16 July. Carries a 2kg penalty for the win but deserves respect
2. SCORPIO – Ended off the 2023 campaign with some disappointing runs and was 8th last time
out in a Conditions race at Nancy over 2000m on 24 September. Likely to need this run
3. SEKKU – Has struggled of late and was 8th last time out in a handicap at Aix-les-Bains over
2500n on 14 July. Others are much preferred
4. ROCH – Yet to win a race and was well beaten last time out in a handicap at Compiegne over
2800m on 22 June. Might play a minor role at best
5. LIPS LEO – Battling to regain best form and was 9th last time out in a handicap at Strasbourg
over 2000m on 13 June. Needs to find a few lengths to win
6. CREME CHANTILLY – Yet to win a race and was 8th last time out in a Claimer at Le Touquet
over 2700m on 1 July. Needs major improvement to win

July. Better on the PSF but is capable of winning this race
8. LONDON WAY – Unreliable but was a runner-up last time out in a Conditions race at Vitteaux
over 2000m on 7 July. Has a place chance
9. ELEGANTIA – Has shown little in four starts and was tenth last time out in a handicap at
Compiegne over 1600m on 12 July. Others are preferred
10. RONALDO – Disappointing form of late and was 11th last time out in a handicap at
ParisLongchamp over 2250m on 4 July. Capable of an upset on best form
11. CULTURE – In good form this year and was third last time out in a handicap at Marseille-Borély
over 2000m on 15 June. Be right there at the finish once again
12. WINELATO LAUJAC – Yet to win a race after 22 attempts and was 6th last time out in a
Conditions race at Wissembourg over 2400m on 14 April. Could need this run returning from a
break
13. SILVER MAGIC – In good form and was the winner of a handicap last time out at Strasbourg
over 2350m on 8 July. Can follow up carrying a 2kg penalty
14. MURMILLO – Has not shown much yet and was tenth last time out in a Conditions race at
Nancy over 2500m on 26 March. Needs major improvement to win
15. WONDER HOPE – Unreliable and was fourth last time out in a handicap at Strasbourg over
2350m on 8 July. Can make the frame
16. LUCKY YOU – Disappointing of late and was tenth last time out in a handicap at Vichy over
2000m on 15 July. Capable of earning some money
Summary: A weak race and it is not with much confidence that VESINABA (7) is offered up as the
selection. He has been best on the PSF of late but did finish off his race nicely last time out and
can score this longer distance on the grass, CULTURE (11) is in good form and should be right
there at the finish. RONCHEROLLES (1) won last time out and could follow up but is not reliable.
SILVER MAGIC (13) is in good form but runs under a penalty for the last win.

C6 – PRIX DE LA LUTHERIE DE MIRECOURT – 2100m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 4 Divided Handicap – Flat – EUR € 16,000
1. ASGARD – Well beaten 9th in a Handicap at Aix-les-Bains over 2000m on 4 July. Sparingly
raced this year with two below-par efforts
2. BONNIE HOPPS – Ran well when fourth in a Handicap at Vichy over 2000m on 15 July. She
improved in the latest and has sufficient means to fight for victory
3. LOVELY TESS – Unplaced in a Handicap at Compiegne over 2000m on 9 July. Others are
preferred in this line-up
4. RIO GRANDE – A winner in a Conditions race Aix-les-Bains over 2500m on 9 July. Penalised
for the victory but is still capable of contesting the finish
5. LODOVICO – Ran third in a Conditions race at Vitteaux over 2000m on 7 July. A vast
improvement in the latest and must confirm
6. KING’S CROWN – Finished 6th in a Handicap at Strasbourg over 2000m on 8 May. The last two
efforts have been better and could pop up in a place
7. BOLT OF THUNDER – Disappointing 15th in a Handicap at Compiegne over 2000m on 9 July.
He is better than his form indicates and can bounce back
8. VITTVITT – Disappointing 10th in a Handicap at Compiegne over 2000m on 9 July. Antonio Orani
will be in the saddle and can make the frame
9. BREMONTIER – A winner in a Handicap at Aix-les-Bains over 2000m on 4 July. Received a 2kg
penalty for the victory and can be involved in the finish
10. DAFNE – She finished 8th in a Handicap at Clairefontaine-Deauville over 1800m on 28 June.
She is not showing her best recently but is capable of bouncing back
11. MARGUNS – Finished 6th in a Handicap at Aix-les-Bains over 2000m on 4 July. She has won
twice this year and is capable of popping up in a place
12. COMTESSE VERA – Finished 10th in a Handicap at La Teste-du-Buch over 1800m on 27 June.
A surprise penultimate start winner that was disappointing in the latest
13. VIZINDI – Unplaced in a Handicap at Strasbourg over 3000m on 29 May. Disappointing latest
effort and is best watched for now
14. MAYDANA – Fourth in a Handicap at Strasbourg over 2350m on 8 July. There is some
improvement in the latest and will be fitter this time
15. AS DE JUILLEY – Well beaten 8th in a Handicap at Strasbourg over 2350m on 8 July. Unplaced
since winning in April and others are preferred
16. MANDOKI – Finished 7th in a Handicap at Strasbourg over 2350m on 8 July. Only one placed
effort from six starts this year
Summary: BONNIE HOPPS (2) showed some improvement last time out and could do better and
win this lucky last race. DAFNE (10) seems capable of better than what has been shown of late
and could be a threat this time around. RIO GRANDE (4) carries a penalty for the last victory but
would not be a surprise winner. VITTVITT (8) flopped last time out but could bounce back and
contest the finish.
