1900m on 11 April. Be right there at the finish
2. MARANADO – Showed major improvement when 6th last time out in a handicap at Deauville
over 1900m on 9 April. Capable of even better this time around

over 2400m on 13 October. Can surprise if fit from a break
5. MISSRIYA – Unreliable but was runner-up last time out in a handicap at Deauville over 1900m
on 9 April. Can contest the finish again

Saint-Cloud over 2400m on 5 October. Could need this run returning from a break
7. TUNDRA – Has struggled of late and she was tenth last time out in a handicap at Toulouse
over 2000m on 8 April. Capable of an upset on best form

2000m on 7 April. Capable of winning when in the mood

handicap at Nantes over 1600m on 18 April. Capable of making the frame on best form
10. KONIG CHOUCHEN – Has struggled of late and was tenth last time out in a handicap at Le

Summary: A very competitive-looking handicap. BOKEN (1) has been good of late and deserves
a win for his recent efforts. MISSRIYA (5) is unreliable but could go one better on her last run.
MER NOIR (9) is capable of breaking a long losing run with luck in running. MARANADO (2)
showed major improvement last time out and could be a threat in a very weak race form-wise.

handicap at Nantes over 2400m on 18 April. Others are preferred

at Senonnes-Pouancé over 2100m on 23 March. Can make the frame
Summary: DELTA SPIRIT (2) is in very good form and should be involved with the finish once
again. RED GRACE (5) was not disgraced last time out and is likely to do even better this time
around. ROMANELLO (1) is not reliable but is better than the last run would suggest and can
contest the finish. CHUBASCO (4) has been kept to the PSF of late and is better on the grass sp
could bounce back to score.

R3 – PRIX DE RILLIEUX-LA-PAPE – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 4 Divided Handicap – Flat – EUR € 17,000
1. CAPTAIN DE CERISY – Ignore bad last run, won over 1800m at Lyon La Soie before that and
has strong each way claims
2. QUE VENDRA – Lightly raced, interesting runner and can go one more on recent 2nd over
2400m at Lyon La Soie on the 15th of March in a Handicap. Value selection
3. LIVING NELSON – He caught the eye last time when 2nd at Lyon La Soie over 1800m in a
Handicap. Should be right there at the finish. Big chance
4. AGOUREIL – Won a weak claiming race over 2000m at Saint-Cloud on the 5th of April and
might battle to follow up. Small place chance
5. RIO GRANDE – Taking time for maiden win, finished 9th over 2400m in a Handicap last time.
Much more needed for the win. Pass by
6. KALIFE ALAPLACE – Long time maiden but is consistent. Placed 2nd over 2000m in a
Handicap at Compiegne on the 16th of this month. Good chance
7. GAMECHANGER – Has fair overall form but will need to progress on latest 6th over 2000m at
Compiegne on the 16th of April. A must for all bets
8. INTERIEUR – Has won ten times, fresh off a victory at Marseille Vivaux over 2000m in a
Handicap on the 12th of this month. Serious contender
9. LEJENDARIO – Ignore last run in a tough Handicap, placed 3rd over 2150m at Lyon La Soie in
penultimate and has a strong place chance
10. SHOWERSOFBLESSING – Current form needs plenty of improving on and cannot be
selected for any bets. Finished 9th last time. Happy to ignore
11. SYLVER SAMBA – Has not been too far adrift the winners recently and could get in to the
back end of the quartet. Do, however, prefer others
12. EVERMAN – Finished 2nd over 1900m in a Handicap at Deauville on the 9th of April and can
go one more. Strong chance
13. ESTOKENIA – Never shone last time when 6th over 2000m in a Handicap and will need to
serve up much more to threaten here
14. ORKAN – Will need to build on recent 8th place at Marseille Vivaux over 2000m. Others
preferred for the win. Happy to ignore
15. VITTVITT – Can progress on latest 4th over 2000m at Marseille Vivaux and is worth including
in the quartet 16. DARLYVI – Hard to fancy on latest form, finished 14th over 2400m at Lyon La Soie in
December last year. Might need and prefer others
Summary: CAPTAIN DE CERISY (1) is a tad erratic and slightly tough to assess but on very best
form should be a massive contender for top honours. EVERMAN (12) ran a huge race to finish
second at Deauville last time and can go one better. KALIFE ALAPLACE (6) is taking forever to
secure the maiden win but is running well and should be able to pass the line in first soon.
LIVING NELSON (3) is one for the shortlist and the quartet perm.

R4 – PRIX DE SATHONAY-CAMP – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 4 Divided Handicap – Flat – EUR € 15,000
1. HIGHEST MOUNTAIN – Needs to build on last two average runs but did finish 4th over 2000m
on the 19th of February and has an undeniable chance
2. KARRY BRADSHAW – Current form needs improving on, finished 10th over 1800m last time.
Would be a surprise winner
3. FUNTANO – Finished 5th over 2500m at Heres on the 13th of April and would be a surprise
winner. Outside place chance at very best
4. PUMPY GIRL – Was a winner three runs back, finished 5th at Wissembourg over 2400m last
time out and can get into the action. Place chance
5. PARK OF DIAMOND – In mustard form, undeniable hat trick chance, won over 2000m at
Compiegne in a Handicap on the 16th of this month. Win choice
6. BIRCH MAN – Finished 8th at Salon Provence over 2000m late last year and will more than
likely need this comeback run. Pass by for today
7. KANIFUSHI – Finished 11th over 2000m at Nancy on the 4th of April and is hard to fancy.
Happy to ignore
8. RABBAH – Managed to finish 5th over 2000m in a Handicap at Marseille Vivaux on the 12th of

9. STADE VELODROME – Needs to step up on current form and others are preferred for the win.
Finished 9th over 2000m at Marseille Vivaux last time. More needed
10. RONCHEROLLES – Managed 9th over 2400m at Moulins last time out and would be a
surprise winner. Hard to like
11. UNION SQUARE – Placed 4th over 1800m in Handicap class at Lyon La Soie on the 6th of
April and can go close today. Big runner
12. SEKKU – Current form has been on the decline over various distances and is hard to make a
case for. Unlikely
13. KISS QUEEN – Finished 5th at Lyon La Soie over 1800m in a Handicap on the 6th of this
month and can build on that. Good chance
14. KUPALA – Is never too far off the action but will need serious progression on latest 7th at
Compiegne to threaten. Pass by
15. AMARHALEN – Finished 9th over 2400m at Bordeaux Le Bouscat in a Handicap in February
and needs serious improvement to feature
Summary: PARK OF DIAMOND (5) is in tremendous winning form and looks set to continue on
these ways. His latest victory over 2000m was at Compiegne in Handicap class and he is
selected to reel off the hat trick. UNION SQUARE (11) is making us wait for the maiden win but is
ultra-consistent and comes into the race with a huge place chance. HIGHEST MOUNTAIN (1)
can do way better than he has done in his last two.KISS QUEEN (13) ran a much better race last
time when 5th over 1800m at Lyon La Soie.

1. KENZAL – Finished 7th at Salon Provence over 1800m on the 3rd of March and can get closer.
In saying that, others are preferred for the selection panel
2. HOOLONG – Disappointed last time when downfield but did win penultimate. The victory came
over 1900m at Deauville. Strong each way chance
3. PREMIERE D’ESTEJO – Is holding form, won penultimate, finished 4th over 1800m at Lyon La
Soie on the 6th of this month over 1800m in a Handicap. Each way chance
4. PIERRE LE GRAND – Running well, placed 2nd over 1600m at La Teste on the 10th of this
month and can go one better. Big chance
5. SICILIA – A tad erratic and hard to assess. Placed 7th over 1600m at Chantilly earlier this
month and can get closer now. Chance
6. O’MONERIE – Ignore latest 6th, was a winner before that over 1500m at Cagnes-Sur-Mer on
the 5th of February in a Handicap. Bright win chance
7. HEYTESBURY LANE – In good form, finished 3rd over 1500m at Marseille Vivaux on the 12th
of this month in a competitive Handicap and is one of the leading contenders. Big chance
8. DE QUEVEDO – Current form has been on the decline and would be a shock winner as a
result. Pass by
9. LEX LUTHOR – Won well on the 14th of this month over 1350m at Wissembourg in a Handicap
and would one no shock at all to see him follow up. Include
10. KHABESA – Needs to find a few lengths for the win, finished 8th last time at Chantilly. Small
win chance but good place chance
11. SAINT FIACRE – Much better run last time when 4th at Strasbourg over 1400m than
penultimate 11th at Chantilly. Small, outside quartet chance at best
12. MAPLE GIRL – Placed 9th last time but did win at Compiegne over 1400m before that. An
outsider that has a shout for the minor money. Quartet value
13. SECRET FEELING – Finished 6th in a weak claiming race last time at Lyon La Soie and
needs to do a ton more for the win here. Happy to ignore
Summary: O’MONERIE (6) is a four time winner, can be forgiven for her last start and was
victorious at her penultimate run. She must be taken seriously. PIERRE LE GRAND (4) went off
form but lately has been showing encouraging signs of improving and achieving another career
win soon. HOOLONG (2) dropped the ball last time but impressed when winning before that.
Expect a lot more today from him. HEYTESBURY LANE (7) has placed in her last two starts and
can certainly be in the money again.

1. BALAGAN – Is really hard to fancy on current declining form over various distances. Unlikely to
feature
2. TO BE QUEEN – Won three races back, finished 9th at Marseille Borely on the 31st of October
last year and has not been seen since. Chance if not in too much need of this
3. LORLISALSA – Finished 2nd over 1350m in Handicap class at Wissembourg on the 14th of
this month and should fight out the finish. Strong each way claims
4. RICHMOND – Judge on penultimate 2nd over 1600m in a Handicap at Pau on the 10th of
March. Small place chance
5. GOLDEN BEACH – Comes into the race fresh off a victory at Chantilly over 1600m in a
Handicap and can go back-to-back. Serious winning chance
6. MIAMI BEET – Attractive effort last time when 3rd at Saint-Cloud over 1500m in a Handicap on
the 26th of March. One of the leading contenders
7. JOYEUSE DE ROMAY – Very small chance based on previous 3rd at Marseille Vivaux over
1500m on the 14th of last month but prefer others
8. VENETICO – Would be a shock winner, finished 11th at Lyon La Soie on the 6th of April.
Unlikely
9. PRINCE LOS – Placed 2nd in penultimate run but dropped the ball thereafter when 6th over
2000m on the 12th of this month. Chance
10. MAKHZEN – Much better 3rd over 1500m at Marseille Vivaux last time and if repeating and
building on that, can score
11. SIBUYU – Finished way back in 12th last time and has dismal overall form. Would be a
surprise winner
12. REPONSE EXACTE – Has been finishing way downfield in last few starts and needs serious
improvement to threaten. Happy to ignore
Summary: GOLDEN BEACH (5) won well at Chantilly last time and is confidently selected to go
back-to-back. Firm first choice. LORLISALSA (3) has been knocking loudly at the door by posting
two creditable seconds and it would be no shock if she were to win. MIAMI BEET (6) caught the
eye last time when placing and can do so again. Expect a good effort again. MAKHZEN (10)
needs to confirm the recent improvement but surely can.

serious chance here with weight off the back. GREEN SPIRIT (5) slots in light and looks to be
getting closer to another victory as he continues to drop in the ratings. SANCHO (7) showed big
improvement last time out and can produce a similar effort. MISS GREELEY (12) is fairly
consistent and should be on the premises.

5th of April 2024. Should be in the shake up
Summary: BELAFONTE (7) doesn’t come in with the best form figures but has been taking on
stronger and this looks to be an ideal race for him to get his winning mojo back. VILLAGE
ANGLAIS (1) drops in class and looks to be a serious chance having dropped a few points in the
ratings. GRECIAN BONANZA (2) just found one too good and should run a similar type of race.
JOLI CORBEAU (9) has a light weight and can run into the minor positions.

Summary: SHAMARKAND (1) brings the right form to the table and should love the step up in
trip which will eek solid improvement out of this colt. He sets the standard and is the one they all
need to beat. PEARL FIFTEEN (2) did all he could do on debut and should have more to offer.
LUNA ROCK (5) did it well when winning her maiden and should take full advantage of the weight
allowance. DSCHINGIS RANGER (3) can only improve after a promising debut win.

to get that first victory out the way in a modest contest. ROI DE BAVIERE (6) has put up two solid
performances in recent outings and could play a leading role. VAZIRHAN (3) showed
improvement last time out and has a weight advantage which will assist. LORD MIESQUE (7)
found one too good at his latest outing and he is another that could land a knockout blow.
