RACE 1: CHANTILLY CAPITALE DU CHEVAL HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) – 1900M – TIME: 19:55 PRIZE MONEY: EUR53000
Summary: ELDIO (2) has been a model of consistency, placing on his last four starts, and was a good second most recently in a Class 2 handicap at Deauville on April 8th. He is preferred over I’M A BELIEVER (8), who has solid course form, including a second over this track and trip in a Class 2 handicap in late March. STANGHELI (4) ran well for third at Deauville 20 days ago and should be involved again, while ALLURRE (7), a winner over track and trip two starts back, warrants respect. DARI RIVER (5) looks the best of the remainder.
SELECTIONS
ELDIO (2) – I’M A BELIEVER (8) – STANGHELI (4) – ALLURRE (7)
RACE 2: MONT DE PO STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1000M – TIME: 20:30 PRIZE MONEY: EUR30000
Summary: IMPERIAL ME CEN (1) made an impressive debut when winning by three lengths at Deauville on April 8th and will be tough to beat. KIMI REY (6) showed promise on her first outing at Moulins and should come on for that experience. SBIKHA (5) ran respectably when fifth on debut and can make things interesting, while GRAFT (2), who finished third in a claimer on debut despite greenness, looks best of the remainder.
SELECTIONS
IMPERIAL ME CEN (1) – KIMI REY (6) – SBIKHA (5) – GRAFT (2)
RACE 3: BOIS BOULEAUX HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) – 1300M – TIME: 21:05 PRIZE MONEY: EUR25000
Summary: ROSALITA (2) was not beaten far when she was seventh in a handicap at this track over 1400m last time and could be the answer in a race that lacks depth. ZYA D’AUMONT (12) was ahead in fifth place in the same race. The slight drop in trip today could swing the balance in the former’s favour. AUDELADESETOILES (3) arrives after a win on her last start at Le Croise-Laroche and can make things interesting. BELL BOY (10) is another to consider.
SELECTIONS
ROSALITA (2) – ZYA D’AUMONT (12) – AUDELADESETOILES (3) – BELL BOY (10)
RACE 4: DE CHAMANT CLAIMING STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1100M – TIME: 21:40 PRIZE MONEY: EUR19000
Summary: BLU METAL JACKET (10) has been in consistent form, finishing runner-up on his last three starts, most recently over 1100m at Le Croisé-Laroche on April 5th. He gets the vote over CIAO PA’ (1), who should be competitive despite having to concede weight all round. KING ROBBE (3) is capable of bouncing back to form and appeals as an each-way option, while CROWDFUNDING (6), a respectable second two outings ago, is also worth considering.
SELECTIONS
BLU METAL JACKET (10) – CIAO PA’ (1) – KING ROBBE (3) – CROWDFUNDING (6)
RACE 5: PLESSIS-LUZARCHES MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 2000M – TIME: 22:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR27000
Summary: KINDLEO (9) caught the eye when he was second on his debut at Deauville in early December in a race that has produced winners. He can score on his first try on the turf. WANDERLUST (3) ran a race full of promise at Parislongchamp when he was second earlier this month when beaten three-quarters of a length. He will make the selection work hard. ENEA (7) looks like he will improve from his debut as he was fifth in the same race at Parislongchamp. PHINEAS (10)is also worth considering.
SELECTIONS
KINDLEO (9) – WANDERLUST (3) – ENEA (7) – PHINEAS (10)
