13. EL MANIFICO – Ran no type of race when back in 11th spot over 1900m at Deauville in a Class
3 divided handicap on the 29th of November 2023. Others make more appeal

of February 2024. Upset potential
15. RIDWAAN – Comfortably held in 3rd place over 2000m in a Class 3 divided handicap on the

February 2024. Would be a surprise winner
Summary: TRABUCO (9) arrives in pleasing form and looks to be a contender for top honors on
the basis of his latest outing. LOU MAN (11) has found one two good in his last two outings and he
looks to be ready to notch up another win. MOONWALK STEP (1) has the right credentials and
should produce another solid effort. KAR VERT (5) put his opposition to the sword last time out
and is terrific value despite rising in class.
SELECTIONS
TRABUCO (9) – LOU MAN (11) – MOONWALK STEP (1) – KAR VERT (5)
R2 – PRIX SAINT-SIMON – 1600m (a1m) – TURF – Newcomers – Flat – EUR € 27,000
1. DARBASAN – Dam won once over 1200m which came on debut but this colt could need a run
or two before showing his best. Others preferred
2. OZAT – Dam won three times over in the UK including a Group three which came over 1200m
and 1400m. Go well on debut
3. SHARDANA – Dam raced nine times without any success and this colt is unlikely to be
competitive on debut. Others make more appeal
4. GOLDEN ROCK – Dam won four times from 1000m – 1300m and this colt doesn’t shape up as
one that could win on debut. One to pass by
5. KIARO – Son of Guignol who could be worth keeping an eye on and needs to be followed in the
market. Could be anything
6. NAXOS – Son of Territories who gets the services of a top jockey which could indicate that there
might be some expectations. Follow the market
7. DELIRE – Well bred son of Siyouni who could be ready to strike on debut. Dam won once over
1500m. Big player
Summary: DELIRE (7) is bred to be useful and could show up very prominently on debut. He is
certainly very interesting here. OZAT (2) is well bred and races for a lethal combination which
could see him show a promising effort. KIARO (5) and NAXOS (6) both warrant market checks in
a race that could be worth following.

R3 – PRIX DUSHKA – 1600m (a1m) – TURF – Newcomers – Flat – EUR € 27,000
1. SARIMARES – Daughter of the talented Recoletos, this filly could be of interest on debut. The
market is our best guide
2. IRIDIA – Dam was unraced and this filly seems as a the type that may need an educational run.
Others inspire more confidence
3. LA CELESTIALE – Dam won three times in France ranging from 1500 – 2400m. She could be
well set up to go close. Follow the market
4. SEEYOUAGAIN – Dam raced four times without any success but this filly comes from a yard
that can ready them at the first time of asking. Include in the play
5. SAHIRAH – Nicely bred daughter of Ten Sovereigns who gets the services of a top jockey for
her debut. Watch the market
6. LA MANDALA – Dam was unraced and this filly could need a couple of runs before showing her
true potential. Others preferred
7. LYBOVKA – Dam was unraced and this filly gets the services of a 4kg claiming apprentice. One
to pass by
8. MONBE – Dam won twice over 1000m and 1200m as well as being raced in Group events. Trip
is a question mark
9. BEST OFFER – Dam raced seven times without any success so this filly remains as a bit of an
unknown. Watch for any support
10. CHIVERE – This filly gets the services of an apprentice on debut which could signal that she
may need a few runs before shaping up. One to pass by
11. CARTIMANDUA – Dam raced eight times for zero wins but this filly has a powerful combination
which makes her of interest. Could be a big runner
Summary: SAHIRAH (5) has the pedigree to suggest that she will be suited by this trip on debut
and stands out with Christophe Soumillon aboard. LA CELESTIALE (3) hails from an inform yard
and could be quite forward. SARIMARES (1) is very interesting on debut and needs to be followed
closely in the market. SEEYOUAGAIN (4) could be anything and bears close watching.

R4 – PRIX ROSE DE MAI – 2000m (a1m 1/4) – TURF – Listed – Flat – EUR € 55,000
1. SIMADA – Won well over 2100m at Pornichet in a Class 2 conditional on the 30th of January
2024. More to come
2. KEEN APPROACH – Won a nice race over 1900m at Deauville in a maiden contest on the 3rd
of February 2024. Would be a surprise winner
3. ITSY BITSY – Finished 2nd over 1600m at Toulouse in a Listed race on the 11th of November
2023. Will run well
4. FUN WITH FLAGS – Winner over 1500m at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in a Class 2 conditional against
older company on the 15th of January 2024. One to beat
5. HARMONY GREY – Produced a promising performance when winning over 1600m at Pornichet
in a Class 2 conditional. Should be involved
6. DARKILLA – Winner on debut over 1900m at Deauville against maiden company on the 19th of
January 2024. Will need to up her game
Summary: FUN WITH FLAGS (4) is unbeaten and looks to be a very progressive type that could
go through the divisions. She rates the one to beat. ITSY BITSY (3) has been tested at this level
and has the experience over her rivals which could aid her cause. SIMADA (1) is improving and
getting better with racing so looks to be a serious threat. HARMONY GREY (5) has the ability and
should appreciate stepping up in trip.
