RACE 1: DE L’ALLEE DE LA PORTE VAILLANT HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 1) – 1300M – TIME: 18:42 PRIZE MONEY: EUR16000
Summary: SHAMASUN (9) is taking time for the next win but is consistent and looks ready for it now. She finished 3rd over 1400m in a Handicap last time and looks a solid proposition. JIJI MY LOVE (13) is currently banging loudly at the door having finished second in her last two starts. Big each way chance. STANTO (14) is holding her form and is one for the shortlist. She seems to have more of a place chance than a winning one against the top two selections. TERANGA (15) can finish in the firing line and is a must for the quartet bet.
SELECTIONS
SHAMASUN (9) – JIJI MY LOVE (13) – STANTO (14) – TERANGA (15)

Summary: STORM CITY (6) put his penultimate bad run behind him when finishing 2nd over 1900m at Deauville on the 10th of January albeit in a weak claiming race and is confidently selected to go one more this time. CIRCEO (7) needs to do a bit more for the win on current form but can do better and be given a serious place chance. ROYAL SAXO (2) boasts solid recent form and might well be the one they all need to fear the most. Big each way chance. GOLFEUR (16) must be respected and included.
SELECTIONS
STORM CITY (6) – CIRCEO (7) – ROYAL SAXO (2) – GOLFEUR (16)

Summary: DIWAN SENORA (10) ran a much better race last time when finishing 3rd at Deauville over 1900m in a Handicap and looks ready for his next victory. ALPENGEIST (8) finished a creditable 4th in his last run and can be expected to get closer. Big runner. FRAICHE (1) has a place chance and deserves the utmost respect. STEPASIDE BELL (3) can be expected top improve on the last run when 5th at Deauville.
SELECTIONS

RACE 4: DE LA MARE DES SOTS HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 4) – 1900M – TIME: 20:27 PRIZE MONEY: EUR15000
Summary: SEA WINGS (1) is taking time for the next win but based on his penultimate 3rd at Chantilly over 1900m must be given serious consideration for the first position. ZOUBAREVA (10) ran a much better race last time and is one for the shortlist and a must for all bets., KENNY (4) has finished 4th in the last two races and looks to be a natural quartet inclusion. He could get closer this time. LANDARYNA (7) looks good on what she has been doing recently and is the place value suggestion.
SELECTIONS
SEA WINGS (1) – ZOUBAREVA (10) – KENNY (4) – LANDARYNA (7)
RACE 5: DE L’ALLEE DU PONT AU ROI HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 5) – 1300M – TIME: 21:12 PRIZE MONEY: EUR21000
Summary: CRACK CITY (9) has been a consistent sort but winning has come at a premium for this gelding. He appears to be in the right race and should run a big race. GRAND LIBYA (3) has started off 2025 with a bang having won his last two and is on track for a hat-trick. He has lots in his favor and could deliver the goods once again. LAURA TREZY (2) is holding useful form having won two starts back, she should pose a huge threat with 1.5kgs off the back. BAILEYS BACHELOR (1) is yet to win a race but seems to be getting closer with each start and should be involved.
SELECTIONS
CRACK CITY (9) – GRAND LIBYA (3) – LAURA TREZY (2) – BAILEYS BACHELOR (1)
RACE 6: DE L’ALLEE QUINCONCE HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 6) – 1300M – TIME: 21:47 PRIZE MONEY: EUR23000
Summary: ADWAN (3) showed courage to dig down deep to win last time out and he should pose a similar threat in this field. He is nicely weighted with an apprentice engaged to ride and should go close. CLAIM THE STARS (15) finished behind the former last time out and is 1kg worse off at the weights so on paper faces a uphill task to reverse the form but should have a say in the finish. IRISHKAMAYA (5) was a deserving winner of his latest outing and is likely to deliver a strong performance once again. BAILEYS ILLUSION (2) remains a maiden after several attempts but is capable of earning.
SELECTIONS
ADWAN (3) – CLAIM THE STARS (15) – IRISHKAMAYA (5) – BAILEYS ILLUSION (2)
RACE 7: DE LA MARE MADAME HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 7) – 1900M – TIME: 22:22 PRIZE MONEY: EUR18000
Summary: FITZCARRALDO (2) is best forgiven for a rather under par effort last time out. When judged on his previous form, he should hold winning claims and will be a factor in the finish. URI (14) ran a cracker last time out and with a repeat performance, he should go very close. PEGO (15) is another that showed up well at his most recent outing and if confirming that effort, he will be involved. ZWIALH (10) isn’t the most reliable sort but has produced some useful runs and can be competitive.
SELECTIONS
FITZCARRALDO (2) – URI (14) – PEGO (15) – ZWIALH (10)
RACE 8: DE LA PIERRE DE RHUIS MAIDEN STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 8) – 1900M – TIME: 22:57 PRIZE MONEY: EUR18000
Summary: MR L’APOTHICAIRE (4) showed potential in his first three efforts before something clearly went wrong at his latest outing. He returns off a break and has his first outing for his new yard which could see him making a winning start. ANUQUET (1) ran his socks off last time out and with a repeat effort, he will pose a huge challenge. SHIHOKU (5) posted two very encouraging efforts in the UK and could hit in the ground running on French debut. FLAINE (9) hasn’t been too far off the action and can get involved.
SELECTIONS
MR L’APOTHICAIRE (4) – ANUQUET (1) – SHIHOKU (5) – FLAINE (9)
RACE 9: DE L’ALLEE DES PHILOSOPHES HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 9) – 1300M – TIME: 23:33 PRIZE MONEY: EUR30000
Summary: DULINI (1) has a terrific bond with this rider and given that this filly is in a good space at present, there is every chance that she could return to winning ways after a string of placings. DROIT DE PAROLE (8) arrives in the form of his life having won five times from his last eight outings and could certainly win here. RANCON ROYALE (6) returned to best form when getting the job done beating a few of these and needs to be respected again. PAINT IT BLACK (10) is holding good form and will run a big race.
SELECTIONS
DULINI (1) – DROIT DE PAROLE (8) – RANCON ROYALE (6) – PAINT IT BLACK (10)
RACE 10: DES COQUILLAGES MAIDEN STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM PORNICHET RACE 1) – 2100M – TIME: 00:07 PRIZE MONEY: EUR21000
Summary: DSCHINGIS NOBLESSE (5) has been on the upgrade and her last run over the course & distance suggests that she is near a win. ABLAZE (1) should improve for his recent comeback run and can make his presence felt in this modest line-up. MAKE ME DREAM (11) is a newcomer from a yard that has been on fire and warrants respect. The well-related SYNERGETIC (10) is another first time starter worth some consideration.
SELECTIONS
DSCHINGIS NOBLESSE (5) – ABLAZE (1) – MAKE ME DREAM (11) – SYNERGETIC (10)
RACE 11: DE L’AMANDE DE MER HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM PORNICHET RACE 2) – 2100M – TIME: 00:42 PRIZE MONEY: EUR17000
Summary: TWENTY SEVEN JET (7) generally runs well at the track and looks a plausible winning prospect in what is a very open race. ESKANDANI (3) is a model of consistency and could be rewarded with a success. RIVOLI (11) comes in on the back of a solid runner-up effort over the course & distance in a Condition race and has every chance if he can repeat this effort. ESTONIA MOON (8) was also placed in his last outing over the track & trip and is another one to consider for top honors.
SELECTIONS
TWENTY SEVEN JET (7) – ESKANDANI (3) – RIVOLI (11) – ESTONIA MOON (8)
RACE 12: DE L’ETOILE DE MER CLAIMING STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM PORNICHET RACE 3) – 2100M – TIME: 01:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR13000
Summary: LAVIRCA DODVILLE (2) was an impressive winner of a claimer over the track & trip last time out and in similar form could follow up. She gets the nod ahead of SCHWENDI (1) who is hard to fault in this class of event. MISSRIYA (3) is not the most reliable but has the ability to score if she is in the right mood. THE CHARMER (7) ran a solid race at Deauville last time and a repeat of this effort shall see him go close here.
SELECTIONS
LAVIRCA DODVILLE (2) – SCHWENDI (1) – MISSRIYA (3) – THE CHARMER (7)
RACE 13: DES ALGUES HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM PORNICHET RACE 4) – 3100M – TIME: 01:45 PRIZE MONEY: EUR17000
Summary: FATALISME (2) won well enough last time out over the course & distance to think that he can defy the 3 kilos penalty. WEMATCH (1) appears to be on the right path after a lengthy absence and will also challenge for top honors. ESCAPADE NOCTURNE (6) has been knocking at the door and is a serious contender. BRAMESHOT (3) is not the horse he once was but retains enough ability to stake a claim.
SELECTIONS
FATALISME (2) – WEMATCH (1) – ESCAPADE NOCTURNE (6) – BRAMESHOT (3)
RACE 14: DES BUCARDES STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM PORNICHET RACE 5) – 1700M – TIME: 02:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR14000
Summary: GREAT ART (5) has been knocking at the door and can reverse form with MANA MAHA (4) who finished in front of him at the end of last year over the course & distance. BON ESPRIT (1) never runs a bad race over this track & trip. He is currently in top shape and looks an obvious danger despite the 5 pounds penalty after this last success. DAYSANIYA (3) has been disappointing of late but can bounce back any time at big odds.
SELECTIONS
GREAT ART (5) – MANA MAHA (4) – BON ESPRIT (1) – DAYSANIYA (3)
