Race Preview
R1 – PRIX CANTAL-DUPART – 2900m (a2m) – TURF – Condition Race – Flat – EUR € 12,500
1. KISS ME D’EX – Won nicely at Machecoul over 2950m on his debut on February 3rd. Can improve
from that and looks the one to beat
2. JAKARTA DE FROM – Unplaced last time, won on debut three runs ago over 3000m on November
12th. Ought to be in the shake-up
3. JUPON D’ALLIER – Three unplaced runs of late over hurdles and fences, 6th on the flat at Pau in
December 2022 on most recent flat outing. Consider for a place
4. JEDI DE TOUCHETE – Well beaten at Durtal on the only run over 2900m on March 10th. Hard to
recommend
5. JUSSIE DU QUARTIER – Unplaced last time, 4th before that at Vannes over 3100m on June 3rd.
Hard to fancy
6. KOUDUSORT – 6th over 2950m on the sole run to date on March 3rd at Machecoul. Not to be
discounted
7. JAGUAR DES OBEAUX – UNplaced on the last two runs, over hurdles and fences. 3rd at this track
on the flat over 2900m on August 5th. Place chance
8. KOURVIT – Showed promise when unplaced at Le Lion D’Angers over 2400m on August 6th. Can
step forward from that and make the frame
9. KYRIELLE DU GITE – Unplaced on the sole run over 2950m at Machecoul on February 3rd. Makes
limited appeal
10. KOTKIE DU MOULIN – Newcomer by Kitkou, stable runners are better for a run or two. The betting
can be the best guide
Summary: KISS ME D’EX (1) won nicely by 2L on his only run to date in early February at Machecoul
and will improve a good deal from that run. He looks like a safe option ahead of JAKARTA DE FROM
(2) who won on her debut and has been slightly disappointing since that success, but she has talent
and ought to be on the premises. JAGUAR DES OBEAUX (7) has been racing over jumps and has
shown ability. She can make the frame. KOURVIT (8) makes up the shortlist.

R2 – PRIX DU MUSEE DE NANTES – 2100m (a1m 1/4) – TURF – Handicap – Flat – EUR € 20,000
1. CHESTER SKY – 2nd on the last two runs, the latter at Pornichet over 2100m in a handicap on March
2nd. Player
2. LOST IN MUSIC – 2nd three runs ago is the best form of late, that was over 2100m at Pornichet in a
claimer in February. Others preferred
3. QUEEN’S ANGEL – Good 2nd last time over 2000m at Compiegne in a Class 3 race on March 10th.
Form pick
4. LADYSHOW – 5th last time, 2nd before that over 2350m at Machecoul on February 25th in a maiden
race. Contender
5. DELIRIUM TREMENS – Two unplaced runs of late, 3rd before that at Deauville over 1900m in a
claimer on November 18th. Place chance
6. SAUVIAC – Has several unplaced runs so far, the latter over 2400m at Pornichet on March 2nd.
Opposable
Summary: QUEEN’S ANGEL (3) has been in good shape of late with a win at Machecoul two runs ago
and a pleasing second at Compiegne last time over 2000m on March 10th in a Class 3 race. Her main
rival looks like it could be CHESTER SKY (1) who has been knocking at the door on his last two runs
when second on both. LADYSHOW (4) and DELIRIUM TREMENS (5) are both considerations and will
likely fight it out for minor honours.

February 22nd. Others rate higher

October 2nd. Hard to fancy
3. POULFOS – Unplaced last time, 3rd before that over 2400m in a Class 4 race on March 2nd. One to
keep safe
4. COCOPICNIC – Four unplaced runs of late, 4th before that at Machecoul on March 12th, 2023 over
1650m. Needs to get back on track
5. FLIGHT DE JUILLEY – Unplaced on the last two runs, 2nd before that over 2100m at Pornichet in a
Class 4 race in early February. Form pick
6. ROCK OF SPIRIT – 5th last time over 2200m in a Class 4 race at Angouleme on March 3rd. Merits
consideration
7. SPINNING MIST – 4th last time at Le Mans over 1600m on March 11th in a Class 4 handicap. Place
chance
8. ALP – Has several unplaced runs over various trips, the latter over 2400m in a Class 4 handicap on
March 2nd. Unlikely
9. KENNYA – Five unplaced runs of late, 3rd before that at Pornichet over 1700m in a Class 4 handicap
on December 10th. Opposable
10. LOUVE SAPHIR – Poor form of late, the latest unplaced run was over 2900m at Durtal in a Class 4
race in December. Avoidable
11. SEMEUR – Nice 3rd at Deauville last time over 1900m on February 2nd in a Class 4 event. One to
pay attention too
12. RUE DAUPHINE – 2nd three runs ago at Clairefontaine over 2400m in a Class 3 handicap on August
4th. Ought to be thereabouts
13. KAHOUNA – 2nd three runs ago over 1900m in a Class 4 handicap on January 25th. Ought to make
the top four
14. ALF A STAR – 4th two runs ago at Bordeaux Le Bouscat over 2400m in a Class 4 race on February
22nd. Outside place chance
15. SOTCHI – Well beaten last time over 1600m at Chantilly on March 5th. Has shown no form for some
time and is best passed over
Summary: FLIGHT DE JUILLEY (5) can bounce back to form and score in this open handicap where
a large number of the field are out of form. SEMEUR (11) should have a say in proceedings and could
pose the main threat to the selection. POULFOS (3) is one to include in all of the place bet permutations
having run well two runs ago when third. KAHOUNA (13) is well-handicapped and ought to be involved
in the shake-up.

1. ROMANELLO – Nice winner last time over 2000m in a Class 4 race at Compiegne on March 10th.
Player
2. ALROUCHA – Unplaced on the last four runs, her 5th placed effort in a Class 4 race two runs ago
was a credible run in January over 1500m. Can feature
3. LA WOOD – 3rd two runs ago over 3100m in a Class 4 handicap at Pornichet on January 27th. One
to pay attention too
4. ZOOM CHOP – Nice 3rd last time over 3100m in a Class 4 race at Pornichet on December 8th. In
the mix
5. WOODWIND DAVIS – 2nd three runs ago over 2500m at Deauville in a Class 3 handicap on January
26th. Can make the frame
6. PHILOSOPHY – Won at Nantes three runs ago over 2200m in a Class 2 handicap. Can not be ruled
out
7. ROYAL POST OFFICE – Fair 3rd last time over 2000m at Compiegne behind ROMANELLO (1) on
March 10th when last racing. Consider each way
8. FLAMBOYANTE – Three unplaced runs recently, 4th before that over 1900m in a Class 3 handicap
on October 19th at Deauville. Makes no appeal
9. ENTROPIA – 3rd two runs ago over 2400m at Prague (CZE) on September 10th. Looks out of her
depth
10. POLLY SHINE – Unplaced on the last two runs, one of them over fences. Form on the flat has been
poor of late, did win at Niort over hurdles on May 29th, 2022. Unlikely
11. MORNING FIVE – 2nd three runs ago over 3000m at Craon on June 13th in a Class 3 handicap.
Looks vulnerable
12. OZMA – Three unplaced runs, the latter over 1700m on November 14th at Pornichet. Handicap
debut and best watched
13. STEPASIDE BELL – Four unplaced runs of late, 4th before that over 2200m on September 11th in
a Class 4 race. Hard to fancy
14. PENNBLE – Won two runs ago over 2100m in a Class 4 race at Pornichet on February 9th. Not
recommended
15. KONIG CHOUCHEN – 6th last time over 2950m in a Class 4 race at Machecoul on February 25th.
Out of form and best avoided
Summary: ROMANELLO (1) will be full of confidence after scoring at Compiegne last time 13 days ago
over 2000m and can follow up off top weight. PHILOSOPHY (6) scored three starts ago in a Class 2
race at Nantes and rates as the main threat to the selection. ALROUCHA (2) is capable of making the
top four on her best form. ZOOM CHOP (4) ran well last time when finishing third in December and
ought to be on the premises.

R5 – PRIX DE LA SOREC – 1000m (a5f) – TURF – Newcomers – Flat – EUR € 23,000
1. NORTH COAST – Is by Al Wukair out of a Kendargent mare that might need a run or two to tighten
up. An outsider that could place. Prefer others
2. SWEET CHOP – Is a son of Van Beethoven out of a mare called Sweet To Remember. Hard to
assess how he will run on debut. Prefer others
3. VIF DE BOISTRON – He is out of a maiden mare that did run many places and is by Al Wukair.
Others preferred
4. FALY CHOP – Another runner by Gutaifan that can be right there on debut. His mare never raced.
Can go well on debut
5. PASILLO – Is a son of Gutaifan out of a one time winning mare. He should run well first time at the
races. Each way chance
6. CITE MONDINE – A daughter of Johnny Barnes out of a Toronado mare that could need a run or two
to learn what racing is all about. Pass by
7. FRUITION – Is a son of Gutaifan out of a Pivotal mare that can be expected to make a winning debut.
Watch the betting closer to race time. Win
8. NACRE FONTANEL – Daughter of Gutaifan that is likely to be an outsider on debut. Happy to ignore
for today
9. LA KICHTA – One of the many offspring of Gutaifan that can be a huge threat on debut. Watch the
betting moves for more or less confidence. Chance
Summary: FRUITION (7) is an attractively bred filly by Romanised out of a one time winning mare. It
is advisable to watch the betting trends as race time looms but she is selected to get her career off to a bright, winning start. PASILLO (5) is a son of Gutaifan that could end up being absolutely anything.
Expect a forward performance first time at the office. LA KICHTA (9) is out of a Holy Roman Emperor
mare that could make the presence felt on debut. Can place. FALY CHOP (4) has a first four chance
on debut.

Can have a say
3. ZARICA – Fair 4th at Fontainebleau when last seen over 2200m in a Class 3 race on March 6th. Can
not be discounted

winner
5. CHELSEA DU NINIAN – Unplaced last time, won before that at Saint-Cloud on October 22nd over
2500m. Others more likely
6. KARAKORUM – Won at Saint-Cloud over 2000m in a Class 3 handicap last time on March 7th. Live
chance
7. AD LIBITUM – Won at Pornichet last time in a Class 4 race on February 22nd over 2100m. Place
claims
8. FLANQUEUR DE BRENU – 4th on the last two runs, the latest over 2500m in a Class 3 handicap at
Saint-Cloud on August 17th. Might need this run after an absence
9. ROYALOR – 3rd on the last two runs, the latter over 3000m in a Class 3 race on August 6th. Will be
fit after a break
10. DESPACITO – 5th last time, won before that was over 2000m on August 6th. Will improve for this
return outing
11. GARRICK HARMONY – Won a Grade 3 hurdle last time over 3600m in early March, nice 2nd before
that on the flat at Machecoul in a Class 4 race on February 2nd. Contender
Summary: JAAFAR (4) has been in good form on his latest two runs, with a win and a good second at
Fontainebleau last time in a Class 3 race on March 15th. He can score from likely main threat GARRICK
HARMONY (11) who gets in off a low handicap mark having recently won over hurdles when last seen.
KLIFF BERE (2) is one for the place backers to look at. ROYALOR (9) is also one to consider after two
third placed runs when last seen.

1. UGATZAI – Has shown some ability before, can build on latest 6th over 2100m at Tarbes in a weak
claiming race on the 23rd of February. Big chance
2. LOUSTIC BERE – Lightly raced, surely has more to offer and can progress on latest 6th over 2150m
at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in a Handicap. One for the shortlist. Go close
3. WELCOMETORO – Finished 5th over 2000m at Pau on the 14th of February and can get much closer
this time. Strong each way claims
4. TESTIMONIO – Running well, placed 4th over 2100m at Tarbes on the 23rd of last month in a weak
claiming race. Good chance
5. HOPEFULLY – Ignore last run when 9th, finished a great 2nd before that at Pornichet over 2100m.
Could be hard to oppose. Strong win choice
6. SILLABUB – She is improving with racing, finished 3rd over 2100m at Pornichet on the 2nd of March
in a Handicap. Strong each way chance
7. SOMMERDANCE – Ignore last run, placed 4th over 1600m at Pau on the 2nd of February in a
claiming race. Is the place value for the quartet
8. CORRECTIONNELLE – Raced three times and has not shown too much promise. Will need to
improve on form seen thus far. Prefer others
9. ESPERANCE CHAUFOUR – Will need to improve a ton on latest 5th over 2100m at Tarbes and
would be a surprise winner. Happy to ignore
10. CIAO MA – Has not shown much at all, finished down field in 10th over 1900m at Bouscat earlier
this month. Hard to like
Summary: HOPEFULLY (5) has raced four times and more than likely has a ton more to offer. Ignore
her last run. She is selected to get it all right today. Strong win. SILLABUB (6) is clearly improving with
racing and ran the best race of her career thus far, last time, and can go very close. UGATZAI (1) raced
a few times and has solid overall form. He can get into the action in this and is a must for all bets.
WELCOMETORO (3) has a huge place chance and has to be included in the quartet.

1. ESCUDO D’OURO – Finished 5th over 1400m in a Handicap at Pau on the 19th of January and could
be the value for the quartet
2. CHAI D’OEUVRE – Finished 5th over 1400m at Bouscat on the 22nd of last month and could be
worth including in quartet perms. Chance
3. ALMAGUER – A good second in a Conditions race at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 1500m on the 17th of
February.
4. CHIRICCO – Ran a cracker on debut, finished 4th over 1600m at Parislongchamp on the 31st of
August last year. Can race fresh and well. Place chance

6. QUARTIER MAITRE – Finished 6th in a Conditions race at Pau over 2000m on the 18th of February.
7. BAYAMOON – Has plenty scope to build on debut 5th over 2000m at Pau on the 18th of February.
Respect and include for the quartet
8. MENDRISIO – A son of Vanishing Cupid out of a mare that won one race. Expect a good effort on
debut but the movements in the betting market will be the best guide as race time looms
Summary: ALMAGUER (3) has run two excellent races thus far, both over 1500m and should be a
hard horse to oppose. Suggested banker on the card. WATHAB (5) has run eight times for an
impressive six places. His last run at Toulouse over 1600m was very encouraging and he should get it
all right soon. Strong each way chance. QUARTIER MAITRE (6) gets the services of Olivier Peslier and
this son of Zarak has plenty scope to improve on his debut effort. Include in all bets. Go close.
CHIRICCO (4) caught the eye on debut and with natural improvement, can get much closer. Huge
runner.

R9 – PRIX DE LA SOCIETE DES COURSES DE TOULOUSE – 1600m (a1m) – TURF – Maiden – Flat – EUR € 21,000
1. PRINCESSE CHLOE – Has not excited at all recently. Placed 10th over 2100m at Tarbes and will
need to find many lengths to feature. Pass by
2. LAS VEGAS DREAM – Excellent first effort when 3rd over 2000m at Pau on the 18th of February.
Expect plenty more with natural improvement. Big chance
3. VILLA DES ARTS – Will have gained experience from a few runs, placed 4th over 2000m at Pau on
the 14th of February and can fight out the finish. Good chance
4. GRAND WHISPER – Plenty scope to build on debut 5th over 1900m at Chantilly. Include in all bets.
Strong place claims
5. DANCING QUEEN – Placed 6th over 2000m at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in February and with natural
progression, can get a lot closer. Bright place chance
6. SADWADA – Finished only 10th over 2000m on debut at Pau and will need serious improvement to
threaten. Ignore
7. TORNILLA – Much better effort last time when 5th over 1900m at Bouscat on the 16th of March
however others should be better. Happy to ignore
8. FINETTE – Ran an absolute cracker at the first time of asking when 2nd over 1600m at Toulouse on
the 4th of March. Could be very hard to beat. Strong win
9. MARQUISE VERA – Started off okay but has been on the decline since. Finished 11th over 1700m
in a Handicap in December last year. Prefer others
10. SHAINI – A daughter of Goken out of a mare that won two races. Watch the betting trends as race
time gets near
11. BAGGALA – She is a daughter of Gleneagles out of an Anabaa mare that could be involved in the
finish on debut. Watch the betting. Each way chance
12. VIANETA – Daughter of Recoletos out of a Dylan Thomas mare that more than likely will need a
few runs to tighten up. Watch the betting. Prefer others
Summary: FINETTE (8) made a huge impression when nearly winning on debut over 1600m at
Toulouse on the 4th of this month. With natural progression, she could prove a very difficult horse to
oppose. Strong win. LAS VEGAS DREAM (2) caught the eye on the 18th of February at Pau when
posting a sparkling first run. Huge improvement is likely and he is therefore a leading contender.
GRAND WHISPER (4) can improve to get much closer which will give her a strong place chance. VILLA
DES ARTS (3) is a natural inclusion for all quartet permutations.

Going the extra distance but has good consistent form
7. DAR TOUNGI – Finished 5th in a Conditions race at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 200om on the 25th of
January. Consistent sort who can play a role
8. PARTENIT – Second in the latest a Conditions race at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2150m on the 25th of
February. A consistent sort who should make a bold bid
9. DILAWAR – Second in a Conditions race at Marseille-Borely over 2000m on the 12th of November.
He has won six from thirteen attempts but might need the run
Summary: PARTENIT (8) is very consistent and must be a big runner and the main danger could be
UNE PERLE (2) who has been on a break since being a runner-up in a Group 3 and if ready must be
included. KOVROV (6) is another worth mentioning and can be involved in the finish. Trying the 2000m
for the first time.DILAWAR (9) is coming back from a break but does have ability.
