1. BOMBEY – Unplaced last time, 4th before that in a handicap over 1400m at this track on May
29th. In the mix
2. SOMMERBLITZ – Unplaced run of late, 2nd before that over 1400m on this track on May 29th.
Ought to be thereabouts
3. XAARINE – Unplaced on the last two outings, won before that over 1400m at Strasbourg in a
handicap on May 8th. Can not be overlooked
4. THUNDERHEART – Has five unplaced runs so far, the latest run over 1400m at this track on
May 8th in a handicap. Needs plenty of progress if wanting to feature
5. RUN FOR HOME – Fair 4th last time in a handicap over 1100m on June 26th at Chantilly. One
to keep safe
6. RUE MIA – 4th last time over 1100m at Dieppe on June 14th. Can be involved and has solid
claims
7. NORONHA – Three unplaced runs of late, 4th before that over 1400m at Nancy in a handicap
on April 4th. Needs to get back on track
8. MISS SISSI – Three unplaced runs so far, the latter over 1350m at Angers in a Class 3 race on
June 20th. One to avoid
9. SCAN FOR CHAMPAGNE – Three unplaced runs of late, 2nd before that over 1400m in a
claimer at this track on April 22nd. Others rate higher

Summary: The selection is BOMBEY (1) although he was unplaced last time, he was a good fourth
before that in a handicap over 1400m at this track on May 29th. He can edge this over
SOMMERBLITZ (2) has won over further on the PSF, but has plenty of speed and will be
competitive over this trip. RUE MIA (6) can also be expected to play a lead role. She ran well at
Dieppe on her most recent start when fourth over 1100m in mid-June. XAARINE (3) heads the
remainder.

SELECTIONS
BOMBEY (1) – SOMMERBLITZ (2) – RUE MIA (6) – XAARINE (3)

R2 – PRIX DES LACS VOSGIENS – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Claiming – Flat – EUR € 10,000

1. SEVENTH WONDER – Unplaced last time, 2nd before that over 1400m in a handicap at this
track on May 8th. One to consider
2. FLY OF NIGHT – Unraced by Vol De Nuit, the dam never won. Will likely need this run for
experience. The betting can guide
3. OLAF – Fair 2nd last time over 1800m in a handicap at Le Croise Laroche on May 19th. Ought
to be thereabouts
4. ZILLIDREAM – Unplaced on the sole start so far over 2000m at Compiegne on June 12th. Needs
vast improvement to feature
5. WALDLADY – Unplaced on the last two runs, 2nd before that over 1800m in a handicap at Le
Croise Laroche on April 20th. Has place claims
6. YSOIE – 4th last time over 1800m at Dieppe on August 23rd last year in a maiden race. Can be
involved if ready to go after a layoff
7. TOILE DE MAI – 4th last time at Wissembourg in a maiden over 2400m on June 8th. Might find
a few of these too smart
8. WIN ALONE – Has two unplaced runs so far, the latest was over 1800m in a maiden at Evreux
on May 22nd. Opposable

Summary: OLAF (3) looks like the best option in this after a decent second last time in a handicap
at Le Croise Laroche in mid-May over 1800m. His main threat could be YSOIE (6) who has not
been seen since a fourth-placed effort last August at Dieppe. She will be ready to make an impact.
SEVENTH WONDER (1) has plenty of experience and has placed form at this track previously. He
can make the frame again. WALDLADY (5) is worth a mention.

OLAF (3) – YSOIE (6) – SEVENTH WONDER (1) – WALDLADY (5)

R3 – PRIX RENE BERNARD – 2100m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Handicap – Flat – EUR € 17,000

12th. Ought to be thereabouts

Handicap debut and can make the top three
3. ONCHAO – 2nd two runs ago over 2400m at Divonne on May 24th. Latest run was a poor effort
and others make more appeal
4. LE JUSTICIER – 3rd two runs back over 1600m in a claimer at Saint-Cloud on May 14th. Can
not be discounted
5. SKADOOSH – 3rd two starts ago over 1600m in a Class 3 race at Chatillon on June 10th. Has
outside place claims
6. LAMIRAL DARHAAN – Has three 3rd-placed efforts, and a below-par run last time in a Class 4
race on June 23rd. Has work to do
7. WINDERMERE – Two unplaced runs of late, 2nd before that over 2400m at Wissembourg in a
maiden race on debut. Might find this difficult
8. LADY OF NABEUL – 5th last time in a handicap at Compiegne on June 7th over 2000m. Can
score off handicap mark
9. BELHAD JELOIS – 3rd two runs ago over 2500m in a handicap at Nancy on May 22nd. One to
pay attention too
10. PRINCE SHALAA – 3rd when last seen over 2100m at Le Touquet in a handicap on July 1st.
Among the leading place chances
11. ZHANNA – 2nd two starts ago over 2150m in a Class 3 race at Wissembourg on May 20th.
Looks inconsistent

Summary: LADY OF NABEUL (8) has leading claims on her current handicap mark. She ran a
decent race when fifth in a handicap at Compiegne last time. BLUES SINGER (1) has top weight
and is capable of making the selection work hard for success. FREEZE (2) is in the mix and will be
expected to have a say in proceedings after a good second at Wissembourg and now tries a
handicap for the first time. BELHAD JELOIS (9) looks best of the remainder.

claims
3. AMAGI – Two unplaced runs of late, 4th before that over 2400m in a claimer on May 12th. Hard
to fancy
4. STARLIGHT – Pleasing 3rd last time over 2700m in a Class 3 race at Orleans on June 9th.
Ought to be in the shake-up
5. TESUMI – 3rd three runs ago over 2600m at Chatillon in a Class 3 race on May 20th. Needs a
few to falter
6. PADYCHEL – 5th last time in a Class 3 race at Chatillon over 2600m on May 20th. Makes no
appeal
7. LEGACY RECONCE – Four unplaced runs so far, the latter over 2400m in a handicap on June
15th. Looks of limited ability
8. LATITUDE – Three runs so far, 6th last time at Royan over 2900m on June 2nd in a maiden
race. She is one to keep safe

Summary: LIANE (1) was a decent second three runs ago over 2600m in a Class 3 race in late
May and holds every chance of winning this ahead of STARLIGHT (4) who ran a nice race when
third at Orleans in early June over 2700m. LATITUDE (8) ought on be on the premises. She is wellbred and has had three runs so far. Her latest effort was a step in the right direction. CARDINALE
(2) is another that warrants respect.

LIANE (1) – STARLIGHT (4) – LATITUDE (8) – CARDINALE (2)

R5 – PRIX GUY VANDIER – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 4 Handicap – Flat – EUR € 16,000

1. KARMINA BELLA – Nice 3rd at this track over 2000m last time in a Class 4 handicap on June

handicap on April 4th. Can make the top four
3. SWEET MASTER – Won two runs ago over 1400m at Nancy in a Class 4 race on April 4th.

limited appeal

Ought to be in the shake-up
7. PEARL HARBOUR – Good 4th at Longchamp last time over 1600m in a Class 3 handicap on
June 20th. Player

track on June 13th. Can be avoided

22nd. Has outside place chance

Summary: KARMINA BELLA (1) ran well at this track last time when third in mid-June over 2000m.
She has yet to get her head in front but has been second twice recently and is overdue a win.
PEARL HARBOUR (7)was a good 4th at Longchamp last time over 1600m in a Class 3 handicap
on June 20th. She can make her rivals work hard. PRAIRIE GLORY (6) is one for the each-way
backers to look at as he was not beaten far when fourth on June 20th in a Class 3 handicap over
1600m. SUPER ZOOM (2) heads the rest.

Wissembourg. Player

June 14th and a win before that in May. In top form and looks hard to beat

claims

in a Class 4 handicap. Opposable
7. AMIATA – Fair 4th last time over 2500m in a Class 4 handicap on June 27th at Aix-Les-Bains.
Each way option
8. KALEOBAYANE – Unplaced last time, 4th before that at Dieppe over 2400m in a Class 4 race
on May 29th. Hard to fancy
9. SCHERWOOD – Two unplaced runs recently, 3rd before that over 2500m at Nancy on May 22nd
in a Class 4 race. Hard to ignore
10. ALWAYS DANCING – 4th two runs ago over 2500m in a Class 4 handicap on May 5th is the
best form of late. Poor run at this track last time
11. GO FOR IT – Three unplaced runs of late, the latter over 3000m in a Class 4 race on June 8th.
Hard to recommend
12. HUMBABA D’AGROSTIS – 5th on the last run on the flat in a Class 3 handicap at Vittel over
3400m on August 19th, 2023. 4th over hurdles on the most-recent start. Out of his depth

Summary: DARLING CHALLENGE (2) has been in top form with a second last time at Dieppe
over 2400m in a Class 3 handicap on June 14th and a win before that in May. In top form and looks
hard to beat. WONDER HOPE (1) is the main danger, she was a decent second two runs back
over 3000m in a Class 4 race on May 20th at Wissembourg. AMIATA (7) is one to include in all of
the place bet permutations. SILVER MAGIC (4) is also one that needs considering.

1. SEMILLANTE – She has been competitive on her last three runs, with a win three runs ago at
Lyon Parilly in a Class 4 race on April 27th. One to pay attention too

Class 4 handicap on April 6th. Place chance

Others make more appeal
5. ALGECIRAS – Has four unplaced runs of late, the latter over 2500m in a Class 3 race on June
27th at Aix-Les-Bains. Makes limited sense
6. INNIS – 3rd two runs ago over 3000m in a Class 3 handicap at this track on May 29th. One for
the each way backers
7. RED NUREYEV – A good second last time over 2000m at this track in a Class 4 handicap on

handicap. Can make the frame at nice odds
9. MANDOKI – 3rd two starts ago over 2400m at Dieppe in a Class 4 race on May 29th. Might find

Class 3 race. Can be passed over
11. ROSEL – Has several unplaced runs of late, the latest over this track in a Class 4 handicap
over 2000m on June 13th. Opposable
12. SAINT AMOUR – 4th last time over 2400m at Craon in a Class 4 handicap on June 10th. Looks
safely held

Summary: RED NUREYEV (7) looks like the best option in this divided handicap. He was a good
second last time over 2000m at this track in a Class 4 handicap on June 13th. He looks progressive.
SEMILLANTE (1) will likely be the main threat. She has been competitive on her last three runs,
with a win three runs ago at Lyon Parilly in a Class 4 race on April 27th. INNIS (6) is dangerous to
rule out, he was a decent third two runs ago at this track in May. ANNA CARIBEA (2) makes up
the shortlist.

1. CALEDONIA – Won two starts ago over 1600m at Toulouse in a Class 4 handicap on May 21st.
Hard to rule out
2. QUDILLERO – 3rd on three of his last four runs, the latter over 2300m at Dax in a Class 4
handicap on June 23rd. Live chance
3. HARIASA – Unplaced last time, 2nd before that over 2400m in a Class 4 handicap at Toulouse

Ought to be thereabouts

handicap on June 27th. Looks out of form and best avoided
7. MOREA – Nice 3rd last time over 1800m in a Class 4 handicap at La Teste on June 27th. In the
mix
8. NOROLLES – Three unplaced runs of late, 4th before that over 2300m in a Class 4 race on May
20th. Looks vulnerable
9. L’ARCHET – 4th last time over 2300m in a Class 4 handicap at Dax on June 23rd. Merits
consideration
10. LIEBE KINDER – Two unplaced runs of late, 4th before that over 2550m at Gabarret in a Class
4 race. Needs more consistency
11. AL IMPACT – 3rd last time over 2250m in a Class 4 race on June 16th at Montauban. One to
pay attention too

Teste on April 25th. Needs to get back on track
13. SANSKRIT – 3rd two runs ago over 2550m at Gabarret in a Class 4 race on May 13th. Others
make more appeal
14. FIAMELCA DOLOISE – 4th three runs back over 2300m in a Class 4 handicap on April 13th is
the best form of late. Others are better equipped

Summary: QUDILLERO (2) has performed well this year with three third-placed efforts on the last
four runs. He deserves to get his first success of 2024. MOREA (7) looks like the main danger after
a good third last time at La Teste in late June. JOSHUA’S SPIRIT (5) is also one to consider and
has a leading each-way chance. L’ARCHET (9) is also worth considering after a solid fourth-placed
effort last time at this track in late June.

May 1st in a Class 4 race. Needs a few to falter
2. VALINA – Four unplaced runs of late, 4th before that over 2000m at Pau in a Class 4 race on
March 23rd. Hardly inspiring
3. REMIX – Won four runs ago over 2100m at Tarbes in a Class 4 race in February and has two
placed runs since. Consider

that over 2400m on May 4th over 2400m. Unlikely
8. SWEET WISH – Won with a dead-heat last time over 1800m in a Class 4 handicap at La Teste
on June 27th. Player
9. VIS LE REVE – Five unplaced runs of late, won before that at Pau on March 24th over 1600m in
a Class 4 race. Makes limited appeal

others are preferred

feature

Summary: SWEET WISH (8) shared success when she dead-heated at La Teste on June 27th
when last seen late last month. She holds strong claims of winning again. SIXUNION (4) is honest
and was a pleasing winner two starts ago on April 21st in a Class 4 event. He will not be far away.
ELIOTT CHOP (12) has a good racing weight and looks like the best each-way option. ASSIER (5)
looks the best of the remainder.

the leading place chances

3. LAYE CHOPE – Won three runs ago over 1900m in a claimer at Bordeaux Le Bouscat and is
capable of making the frame
4. JUBBAH – Should be on the premises after a sixth-placed effort in a handicap at Dax on June
10th over 2100m when last seen. Ought to have a say
5. BATH LAU – 6th on the sole run so far over 2000m at Toulouse in a maiden race on June 19th.

Summary: ANTARES (6) has yet to get her head in front but this looks like a good opportunity after
a decent fourth last time at this track over 2300m. ROOFOFTHEWORLD (2)was unplaced last time
but was a good third at Tarbes in a maiden before that. He drops in class and looks like a threat.
JUBBAH (4) is another that should be on the premises after a sixth-placed effort in a handicap at

to consider

betting for clues

23rd. Pass over
11. NACRE FONTANEL – Has shown some talent in three unplaced runs so far, the latter over

12. CARRICASTEL – Has shown ability in her three runs so far, she was 4th on debut in a claimer
on April 6th over 1000m. Hard to discount

Summary: VICTORY STREET (2) is improving with race experience and ran well at this track last
time when second. She can score from DIVA BELLA (3) who was second at this track two runs ago
in a better race and can be competitive. LUZITANIE (4)is one to include in all of the place bet
permutations after a good debut run when fourth at this track 15 days ago. REINA SILENA (1) was
fifth on her only run and ought to be on the premises.

Toulouse over 1400m on 19 June. Can follow up

5. MACANELLA – Yet to win a race but she is holding her form and was fourth last time out in a
Conditions race at Toulouse over 1400m on 19 June. Not out of it
6. SCAR CHOPE – Has lost his way this year and was 9th last time out in a handicap at La Testede-Buch over 1100m on 27 June. Others are preferred
7. IVANIVKA – Has not shown much in three starts and was tenth last time out in a Claimer at this
course over 2300m on 10 June. Tries sprinting and is best watched this time

Summary: RECONNECT (1) likes this course and is coming off a good victory so can follow up in
this small field. MACANELLA (5) has yet to win a race but did not run badly last time out behind
the selection and can get even closer this time around. PIU DREAM (2) has been a disappointment
of late but could contest the finish. KHARAMAZOV (4) may be at best around this distance and is
another to consider

over 2400m on 28 June. May like it shorter than this but that is not certain

7. PARVA SCURRA – Has yet to win a race but was not disgraced when 5th last time out in a
Conditions race at Tarbes over 1500m on 11 May. Can do better stepped up in trip so deserves

2250m on 9 June. Can contest the finish

Summary: HATIM (1) won well last time out and has only had the three starts so is open for a lot
more improvement. He can follow up and score again. BEAUTIFULL RISK (4) is consistent and
picked up a handicap win last time out and will not go down without a fight. LA QUINTA (8) is
consistent and not out of it. PARVA SCURRA (7) has yet to win a race but could prefer this longer
distance

of six or seven could win it. FULL GAIN (2) is unreliable but has won over this course and distance
so deserves respect. GIFT OF THE G (8) has not been at best of late but is capable of winning in
this division. LAUPER (6) is another that has not shown much of late but could score
