1. SISSI IMPERATRICE – Fourth in a Conditions race at Marseille-Borely over 1000m on 24 April.
In three starts to date has never been further back than fourth. Has shown enough to make the
frame
2. IMAYA – On debut was a well-beaten 8th in a Conditions race at this track over 1000m on 17
April. Others are preferred in this line-up
3. SIGNORIA PIAZZA – Fourth in a Conditions race at Dieppe over 1000m on 13 May. She finished
strongly over 1000m and should appreciate the extra distance. Can be involved in the finish
4. LA GUAPISIMA – A runner-up in both starts, with the latest being in a Conditions race at Dieppe
over 1000m on 13 May. She will appreciate the extra ground and should make a bold bid again

Moderate on debut but can improve second time at the races
6. HOSHIANA – Finished 6th on debut in a Conditions race at Marseille-Borely over 1200m on 10
May. Slow away that time and did finish well. Extra distance should suit and is not out of it

natural improvement can contest the finish again

betting
Summary: LA GUAPISIMA (4) ran well in both starts to date but she will definitely enjoy the rise in
trip and could register a first career success. HONEY STAR (7) ran a promising 3rd first time out
at Chantilly over 1.200 meters and with the natural improvement should be a key player too.
SIGNORIA PIAZZA (3) has plenty of progress to offer and cannot be discounted. HOSHIANA (6)
will also be a lot smarter than when very slow in action on debut at Marseille three weeks ago.

1. VIVRE LIBRE – A runner-up in three of his four starts, with the latest being in a Claimer at SaintCloud over 1300m on 14 May. Be right there at the finish once again.
2. NUIT DE L’HOMME – A runner-up in both starts to date, with his latest being in a Conditions
race at this course over 1200m on 8 May. Can go one better this time
3. YOUNG AND PROUD – Unreliable and was third last time out in a Claimer at Marseille-Borély
over 1200m on 3 May. Could play a minor role
4. REVOLUTIONNAIRE – Finished 6th on his debut in a Conditions race at Saint-Cloud over 900m
on 21 March. Likely to do a lot better this distance
5. BELVEDERE PALACE – Ran well when fourth on debut in a Conditions race at Saint-Cloud over
1200m on 20 May. Can contest the finish
6. PEPPONE CHOP – Two modest runs so far and was 5th in his latest start in a Conditions race
at Marseille-Borély over 1000m on 24 April. More is needed to win
7. FURY BOXING – Finished 7th on debut in a Conditions race at Marseille-Borély over 1200m on
10 May. Capable of improvement but others are preferred
8. YELLOW HAWK – A two-year-old gelding by Mr. Owen out of Femme de Venise who is making
his debut. Watch the betting
9. STELLAR CHOP – A two-year-old colt by Gutaifan out of Stella Rocket who is making his debut.

Summary: Runner-up on both starts thus far including last time at the venue over 1.200 meters,
NUIT DE L’HOMME (2) is the choice to record a first career success. VIVRE LIBRE (1) has also
been consistent and was a game second at Saint-Cloud last time. A repeat of this effort should see
him go close once again. BELVEDERE PALACE (5) ran with promises first time out and should
come on for the run. REVOLUTIONNAIRE (4) is surely capable of better than what he showed on
debut.

course over 1200m on 8 May. Be right there at the finish
2. SYMBOLE – On a long losing run and was 9th last time out in a handicap over this track and trip
on 18 May. Needs to find a few lengths to win
3. MAGGIE’S TERN – Yet to win a race and was 7th last time out in a Conditions race at
Fontainebleau over 1800m on 3 May. Drops in distance and others are preferred
4. RED NUDE ROUGE – Unreliable of late and was 5th last time out in a handicap at
ParisLongchamp over 1400m on 12 May. Should contest the finish
5. NOBLE AMBER – In good form of late and was fourth last time out in a handicap at
ParisLongchamp over 1400m on 12 May. Big chance
6. BIJJLEE – Yet to win a race but has been runner-up in her last four starts, with the latest being
in a handicap at Salon-de-Provence over 1100m on 20 May. Not out of it
7. D DAY MAN – Has already won twice this year and he was not disgraced when 5th last time out
in a handicap at ParisLongchamp over 1400m on 12 May. Can get involved in the finish
8. ZANTARIO – Battling to regain best form and was 11th last time out in a handicap at
ParisLongchamp over 1400m on 12 May. Needs to find a few lengths to win
9. TOPINAMBUR – More than a year since his last win but he has been consistent of late and was
third last time out in a handicap at Wissembourg over this distance on 20 May. Place chance
10. EL PROFESSOR CHOP – Disappointing last run when well beaten in a handicap at Saint-Cloud
over 1600m on 1 May. Capable of better and deserves respect
11. RISKI CHOPE – On a very long losing run and was 6th last time out in a handicap at Salon-deProvence over 1100m on 20 May. More is needed to win this race
12. MURRAYFIELD – Unreliable but did show her best last time out when scoring a handicap win
at ParisLongchamp over 1400m on 12 May. Carries a 2.50kg penalty but deserves respect
13. JOHN STYLE – Has struggled this year and was 9th last time out in a handicap at Salon-deProvence over 1100m on 20 May. Others are preferred
Summary: HY DREAM (1) has been in excellent form of late and gets a tentative vote to resume
winning ways. BIJJLEE (6) has been costly to follow but should go off the mark sooner rather than
later. NOBLE AMBER (5) posted a nice late finish effort at Longchamp last time out and in similar
form should go very close once again. RED NUDE ROUGE (4) finished just behind the former at
last time and is also in with a chance.

1. TIMBALLINA – Finished 7th in a Handicap at Saint-Cloud over 2400m on 10 May. Unplaced in
the last three attempts and best watched for now
2. SEMILLANTE – A winner in a Conditions race at this track over 2400m on 27 April. In form and
is capable of earning some money
3. LA YOMOGUINESS – Improved in the latest when a runner-up in a Conditions race at SaintCloud over 2400m on 10 May. In form and was a course & distance winner in her only outing at
this track

can be concerned with the finish once again
8. GOLD PALACE – Won a Handicap at Saint-Cloud over 2500m on 6 May. Mickaël Barzalona
retains the ride and can double up
9. DARLYVI – Fourth in a Handicap at this track over 2000m on 18 May. Alexis Pouchin is in the
saddle and was her partner when scoring on this track. Respect
10. FUNTANO – A runner-up in a Handicap at this track over 2000m on 18 May. Improving sort
who has been a runner-up at this track in the last two attempts. Can go close again
11. CIVNYAN – Fourth in a Handicap at Le Croise-Laroche over 2500m on 19 May. Unreliable and
has not won since May last year so others are much preferred

victory but can play a minor role
13. TELL ME WHY – Finished 10th in a Handicap at Angers over 2300m on 21 May. Poor recent

preferred in this line-up

last success and comes in this race in good shape. She can score again. GOLD PALACE (8)
bounced back to winning form at Saint-Cloud and should be closely involved here too. FUNTANO
(10) is on the rise and likes the course. DARLYVI (9) was not far behind the former last time and is
another one who can be given consideration in this open race.

R5 – PRIX DU PAVILLON – 2400m (a1m1/2) – TURF – Class 4 Divided Handicap – Flat – EUR € 15,000
1. REGINA LILLIE – Seldom far off the mark in handicaps at this level last year but hasn’t looked
the same in four comeback outings this term. Finished a well-beaten 15th in a 1900m PSF handicap
at Chantilly on 26 April
2. RESPLENDOR – Versatile veteran who caught the eye when 4th on his reappearance (12 May)
in a handicap over 2600m at Châteaubriant. Winning chance
3. TARCENAY – Unreliable veteran handicapper but does have sound references, including a 4th
in a 2000m handicap at this venue on 28 May. Dark horse
4. FEEDESREVES – Has bounced back to form recently by finishing 4th in consecutive handicap
appearances – on PSF over 3200m and over 3150m at this venue last time on 9 May. High on the
shortlist
5. WELL DE VINDECY – Hard-knocking veteran mare with sound references on both surfaces. Has
to improve to be competitive here after finishing a modest 5th at Wissembourg in a minor conditions
race over 3000m on 20 May
6. CROCUS BORGET – Runner-up in consecutive recent outings, over 2600m at Châtillon-surChalaronne on 22 April and over 2900m at Cavaillon on 4 May. Ought to make his presence felt
again
7. BRAZING – Inconsistent veteran with sufficient means to make his presence felt in a race of this
nature, especially on the evidence of his reassuring 5th in a 2400m handicap at Vichy on 15 May.
Keep safe
8. LE HOULME – Returned to form with an improved/encouraging 3rd in a handicap over 2500m
at Le Croisé-Laroche on 19 May. Not taken lightly
9. FETE JOYEUSE – Has regained momentum with each outing this year and confirmed as much
by finishing 2nd over 2600m at Châtillon-sur-Chalaronne in a conditions race on 20 May.
Confirmation required
10. CALAS QUEEN – Hard-knocking handicapper whose consistent performances this year have
all been achieved on the PSF, the latest (3rd) in over 1800m at Lyon-La Soie on 6 April. Outsider
11. AMIATA – Well-performed veteran mare in good form and physical condition. Runner-up in
consecutive handicaps recently, the latest over 2600m at Marseille-Borely on 27 May
12. LADYBUG – Finished 2nd in a PSF handicap over 2150m at Lyon-La Soie in March 2023 but
finished unplaced in all 10 subsequent outings, the latest (13th) over 2500m at Nancy on 5 May.
Can be ruled out
13. LOVELY DOLLY – Runner-up in a PSF handicap over 1800m at Lyon-La Soie in October but
has been off the boil ever since, finishing unplaced in all 10 subsequent outings. Others preferred
14. DARENIX – Seldom far off the mark but remains without a win after 47 appearances. Didn’t go
unnoticed (6th) in a 2600m handicap at Marseille-Borely on 27 May but has no more than a minor
place chance 15. MOODY CHOP – A 28-start maiden whose improved/consistent recent appearances have come
at a lover level – the latest (4th) at Wissembourg in a minor conditions race over 3000m on 20 May
Summary: RESPLENDOR (2) finished an eye-catching 4th when reverting to the flat on his
reappearance at Châteaubriant and, with the benefit of that comeback outing under his belt, is likely
to confirm that encouragement with improved fitness on his side. Veteran mare AMIATA (11) has
filled the runners-up berth in consecutive recent starts so she wouldn’t be winning out of turn and
is also a serious candidate for success. However, the same could be said of hard-knocker
CROCUS BORGET (6) who has finished 2nd in back-to-back recent outings too. FEEDESREVES
(4) and LE HOULME (8) complete the shortlist.

R6 – PRIX LOUIS DUTEL – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Handicap – Flat – EUR € 20,000
1. INSPIRADO – Posted a career-best effort when finishing 2nd over this track and trip on his
handicap debut on 8 May. Winning chance
2. O’WOOD – Has benefitted from the removal of headgear – confirmed as much by finishing 2nd
over 2000m in his penultimate outing before a recent 3rd over 2300m at Angers on 4 May. Big
player on his handicap debut
3. DSCHINGIS ART – Finished an encouraging 4th on his handicap debut over track and trip on 8
May when equipped with the headgear (retained) for the first time. Not taken lightly
4. MIRADERO – Consistent performer with sound references and solid form credentials, including
a last-start 4th on his handicap debut 1700m at Marseille-Borely on 10 May. Not taken lightly
5. LIKING – Inconsistent performer but does boast sound references/form credentials, including a
last-start 2nd over 2100m in a claimer at Saint-Cloud on 10 May. Warrants respect
6. OLD LION CEN – Has improved in two starts with headgear fitted – finished 5th on both
occasions, the latest over 2400m at Saint-Cloud on 14 May. Making his handicap debut
7. NIKKALUOKTA – Yet to find the frame in four appearances but not been beaten far in each
outing, the latest (5th) over this track and trip on his reappearance/handicap debut on 8 May. Dark
horse
8. ARUNDHATI – Unplaced in both outings last year and could only finish 7th on her reappearance
at Châteaubriant over 1950m on 27 April. Others preferred
9. CHANAZ – Won a claimer at Compiègne in March before proving his competitiveness in
handicaps off his current mark. Finished a commendable 3rd in a 2000m handicap at Saint-Cloud
on 10 May
10. ERABLE – Improved with the benefit of a much-needed comeback outing under his belt to finish
an eye-catching 3rd on his handicap debut over this track and trip on 17 April. Keep safe
11. SKADOOSH – Consistent performer with sound references in handicaps on both surfaces,
including a last-start 2nd over 2000m at Nancy on 5 May. Attractive outsider
Summary: INSPIRADO (1) bounced back from a disappointing previous outing to finish 2nd on
handicap debut at this venue last time. He needs only to confirm that form/improvement to open
his account. However, he will have to thwart the likely challenges of resurgent O’WOOD (2) and
Henri-Alex Pantall’s runner CHANAZ (9), whose performances at this level recently have been
encouraging. Consistent MIRADERO (4) and LIKING (5), runner-up in a claimer last time out,
appeal most of the remainder.

R7 – PRIX DO RE MI FA SOL – 2400m (a1m1/2) – TURF – Maiden Race – Flat – EUR € 21,000
1. PAY TO LEARN – Group I Grand Prix de Paris entry. Made the expected improvement after an
introductory outing to finish 2nd over 2000m at Fontainebleau on 30 April – more to come
2. GIBRALTAR – Built on the promise of his debut 4th at ParisLongchamp in April to finish here
3rd over 2000m on 8 May at this venue. Confirmation expected over this extended distance
3. HUDSON – Revealed potential in two starts last year (5th on both occasions) and improved to
finish 2nd over 2300m on his reappearance at Angers on 4 May. Open to further progress
4. ZERAFA – Group I Prix de Diane entry. Confirmed the promise of her debut 3rd with a fastfinishing 3rd over 2200m at ParisLongchamp on 5 May – should have more to offer over this
extended trip
5. TRAV’LIN LIGHT – Failed to confirm the promise of her debut 4th over 2100m by only finishing
7th over 2200m on 5 May at ParisLongchamp. Improvement needed
Summary: ZERAFA (4), whose second dam is none other than the champion Zarkava, has
revealed sufficient means in 2 starts (finished 3rd on both occasions) to suggest she could win a
race of this nature, especially with this extended distance likely to unlock improvement. PAY TO
LEARN (1), with Group I entries to his name, fits a similar profile and ought to fight for victory,
despite conceding weight to the selection. GIBRALTAR (2) confirmed the promise of his debut (4th)
by finishing 3rd last time and will make his presence felt if building on that improvement.
