France Form Sheet – 9th July
Race Preview
R1 – PRIX DE RESSONS-SUR-MATZ – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 4 Claiming Handicap – Flat – EUR € 14,000
1. INDIAN SUNSET – There have been four unplaced runs of late, 3rd before that in a Class 3
claimer at Compiegne over 1800m on March 10th. Hard to rule out
2. ESTOKENIA – 3rd two runs ago over 2100m in a Class 4 race at Marseille Borely on May 31st.
Not the most reliable
3. NO CURE NO PAY – Four unplaced runs this year so far, the latter over 1800m at
Clairefontaine in a Class 3 handicap on June 28th. Looks vulnerable
4. BABY GLORY – Two unplaced runs recently, won before that over 2000m at this track over
2000m in a Class 4 race. Capable of making the frame
5. ROHIRRIM LASS – Has five unplaced runs so far, the latter over 2000m in a Class 4 race at
Compiegne on May 31st. Opposable
6. BLACK MORNING – Ran a nice race at Parislongchamp over 2250m in a Class 3 race last
time when third 4 days ago. She is a threat
7. PREMIERE ETOILE – Nice 2nd two runs ago in a Class 4 race at Parislongchamp on May
16th over 2100m. In the mix
8. HENRIETTA BLACK – 3rd last time, won before that over 2500m at Mannheim (DEU) on May
5th. Place chance
9. GUGUS DES BRIERES – Has five unplaced efforts since a win on the PSF on January 24th in
a Class 4 handicap over 1800m. Out of form and best watched
10. STADE VELODROME – Won last time over 1850m in a Class 4 race at Hyeres on June 28th.
Merits consideration
11. RAJA LUNA – 4th two runs back over 2100m in a Class 3 handicap on May 26th. Others
make more appeal
12. JANISA BERE – 2nd two runs ago over 2000m at Le Lion D’Angers on June 9th in a Class 4
handicap. Key chance
Summary: JANISA BERE (12) fluffed her line last time but had some solid efforts before that.
Her second-placed effort at Le Lion D’Angers on June 9th two runs ago was a pleasing run on
her seasonal return. BLACK MORNING (6) ran a nice race at Parislongchamp over 2250m in a
Class 3 race 4 days ago when third. She is a threat. PREMIERE ETOILE (7) can also be
considered a player if emulating her second two runs ago in a Class 4 race on May 16th. STADE
VELODROME (10) is also worth a mention.

R2 – PRIX ACTEON (GR B) – 1400m (a7f) – TURF – Maiden Race – Flat – EUR € 22,000
1. WHITEBEARD – Nice 4th on his debut at Compiegne over 1400m on May 24th, when
CHIVERE (10) was second. Ought to be thereabouts
2. TERRATINO FIRE – 2nd last time at Mons-Ghlin(BEL) over 1500m on June 11th. Looks out of
his depth
3. FIRE REBEL – Unplaced last time, 4th before that over 1600m at Compiegne in a maiden on
May 31st. Opposable
4. DARK MONEY – Showed promise when 6th on the only run to date over 1600m at Saint-Cloud
on June 11th. He can improve and be competitive
5. BASSETT BELLE – Has three placed efforts of late, the latter when 3rd at Compiegne on May
31st over 1400m. In the mix
6. PRINCESSE BOBBY – 3rd two runs ago over 1400m at Le Mans in a maiden race on April
23rd. Hard to rule out
7. AVENUE MONTAIGNE – Placed on all five starts so far, the latest over 1600m when third at
Chantilly on May 15th. She is sure to have a say
8. LYCADA – 4th last time over 1400m at Le Lion D’Angers in a maiden on June 9th. Merits
consideration
9. LA CAPUCINE – 2nd last time at Evreux over 1800m in a maiden race on May 22nd. Hard to
recommend
10. CHIVERE – Has been second on her last two runs, the latest at Compiegne over 1400m on
May 24th. She is the each-way must
11. PROUD LIKE A GOD – Unraced Colt by Counterattack, will likely need this run for
experience. Watch the betting exchanges
12. FORCEFULL – Unraced filly by Lethal Force, the stable runners are well prepared for their
debut. Any market support should be noted
13. GRECIAN POEM – Newcomer by Cable Bay, the dam won three times and was second in a
Group 2 race in the UK. Watch the betting for clues
14. FENIX CEN – Unraced filly by Lope De Vega, the dam was useful who won at Listed Class
and was placed in Group races. Any market support should be informative
Summary: DARK MONEY (4) showed promise when 6th on the only run to date over 1600m at
Saint-Cloud on June 11th. He can improve and be competitive. His main rival could be AVENUE
MONTAIGNE (7) who has been placed on all five starts so far, the latest over 1600m when third
at Chantilly on May 15th. She is sure to have a say. CHIVERE (10) has been second on her last
two runs, the latest at Compiegne over 1400m on May 24th. She is the each-way must.
BASSETT BELLE (5) heads the remainder.

1. PIRATE REBEL – Two unplaced runs so far, the latter over 1400m at Compiegne on June

go one better this time
3. PAINTELLO – Nice 3rd last time over 1400m at Compiegne on May 24th. Ought to be
thereabouts

not be ruled out
5. AWI – Unplaced last time, 4th before that on debut at Le Mans on April 23rd over 1400m.
Consider
6. HATFAVILLE – Two runs so far, well beaten on both of them. The latest over 1600m at SaintCloud on June 11th. Hard to fancy
7. IRIDIA – Unplaced on both runs so far, the latter over 1600m at Chantilly on May 17th. Pass
over
8. RIVER FALLS – 6th last time over 1600m at Lyon Parilly on June 15th. Can show more this
time and make the top four
9. KEREMMA – 6th on the sole run so far in July last year at Chantilly over 1400m. One to keep
safe
10. MIXED APPROVAL – Unplaced on both starts, the latter over 2000m at Compiegne on May
31st. Makes limited appeal
11. MONSIEUR DUPONT – Newcomer by Pomellato, the dam ran once. From a stable that can
ready one to strike on debut. Monitor the betting for clues
12. IRISH DU GOUET – Unraced gelding by Por Moi, will likely need this race and further than
today’s distance. Monitor the betting for any support
13. BAILEYS CORONATION – Unraced filly by Le Havre, from a good stable who knows the time
of day. Watch the betting for clues
14. JONIN – Newcomer by Cotai Glory, stable runners are respected and any market support
should be noted
Summary: ZEOLAKIS (2) has been second on both runs so far, the latter over 1400m at
Compiegne on June 22nd. He can go one better this time. PAINTELLO (3) was a nice 3rd last
time over 1400m at Compiegne on May 24th. He looks like the main danger to the selection.
RAPAX (4) was below par last time but is capable of making his rivals work hard for success.
MONSIEUR DUPONT (11) looks good on paper and is one to consider on debut.

ZEOLAKIS (2) – PAINTELLO (3) – RAPAX (4) – MONSIEUR DUPONT (11)
R4 – PRIX DE MERCIERES – 1600m (a1m) – TURF – Class 4 Claiming Handicap – Flat – EUR € 16,000
1. ZEYZOUN – Unplaced last time, won his two runs before that, with the latter over 1600m at
Lyon Parilly in a Class 4 race on May 8th. Ought to be in the shake-up
2. PACO – 3rd over 1600m at Saint-Cloud in a Class 4 race on May 25th when last seen. He
looks like the best option each-way
3. INATTENDU – Two unplaced runs of late, 3rd before that over 1800m at Dieppe on May 29th
in a Class 4 race. Others rate higher
4. IDAMANTE – Has four unplaced runs since a win at Chantilly over 1400m on February 24th.
Can make the top four
5. READY TO RUMBLE – 5th last time over 1200m at Saint-Cloud in a Class 2 race on June
21st, when beaten over 14 lengths. Unlikely to threaten
6. MARLOWE – Three unplaced runs of late, 2nd before that over 1600m at Saint-Cloud in a
Class 3 handicap on May 14th. Needs to bounce back to form
7. LA GALOPINE – Unplaced last time, won before that in a Class 4 race at Compiegne on June
7th over 1600m. Others look better equipped
8. JUMANO – Unplaced on sole run this year over 1500m in a Class 3 handicap on January 6th
on the PSF. Hard to recommend
9. NARCISSUS – Won last time on the PSF at Marseille Pont De Vivaux on May 24th over 1500m
in a Class 4 race. In the mix
10. L’IENISSEI – Unplaced on the last two runs, won before that on February 3rd at Deauville in a
Class 4 race over 1500m. Can not be overlooked
11. SCHWENDI – 6th last time, 3rd before that was over 1600m at Vichy on May 15th. Among the
leading contenders
12. ON THE EDGE – Not seen since an unplaced effort over 1900m in a Class 3 handicap at
Deauville on November 29th. Best watched on this return run
Summary: NARCISSUS (9) is the tentative selection for this open race. He can score from
L’IENISSEI (10) who won two runs ago at Deauville in a Class 4 race in February. PACO (2) ran
a solid race last time when third over 1600m at Saint-Cloud in a Class 4 race on May 25th. He
looks like the best option each way. SCHWENDI (11) is also worth considering and ought to be
involved at the business end.

Handicap on 16 June 2024. Looks tested
17. MONTGAUDRY – Inconsistent form and finished 4th over 1800m at Dieppe in Class 3

rewarded for consistency. GOLDEN CITY (3) has good consistent form lines to his credit. Cristian
Demuro is booked to ride and he should go close. PANGAEA (1) ran a good race under Mikael
Barzalona over 2000m last time and if repeating that outing, he should feature. ALISTO KING (4)
has fair recent form lines to his name. With luck in running, he should have a say.
