R1 – PRIX BAOBAB – PRIX DE SAINT-INNOCENT – 2000m (a1m1/4) – TURF – Class 3 Race – Flat – EUR € 15,000
1. SPIRIT GREY – Two unplaced runs of late over hurdles, he won before that on the PSF on
April 5th in a Class 3 race. Others make more appeal
2. BRANDYWINE – Two unplaced runs of late, 2nd before that over 1900m in a Class 3 race at
Chantilly on April 26th. In the mix
3. DIRE LA VERITE – He won on debut and was a good third on his penultimate race at Chantilly
in a Class 1 race over 1900m in late October last year. He can not be overlooked
4. EUBOA – Nice 3rd last time over 2100m at Parislongchamp on June 13th in a Class 3 race.
Holds a leading chance of winning
5. KYNADA – 5th last time over 2000m at Vitteaux in a Class 4 race on July 7th. Looks out of
form and best watched
6. SWEET DIANA – 4th last time over 1600m in a Class 4 race at Chatillon on May 10th. Needs a
few to falter
7. ROMANTIC SCENE – Unplaced last time in a Class 3 race on June 13th, will be sharper for
that run and did win twice last year. Can not be ruled out
Summary: EUBOA (4) is an honest performer and was a nice third last time over 2100m at
Parislongchamp on June 13th in a Class 3 race. She holds a leading chance of winning. DIRE LA
VERITE (3) is lightly raced and has plenty more to come. He won on debut and was a good third
on his penultimate race at Chantilly in a Class 1 race over 1900m in late October last year. He
can not be overlooked. ROMANTIC SCENE (7) and BRANDYWINE (2) look destined to fight it
out for minor honours.

1. RAVIOLI – Fair 3rd last time in a Listed race at Milan (ITA) over 1600m on June 9th. Ought to
play a lead role

on March 20th. Others rate higher
3. ROCQUEMONT – Unplaced on the last two runs, won before that in a Class 3 handicap at
Marseille Borely on May 3rd. In the mix
4. SILAWI – 5th two runs ago over 2400m in a Class 2 race on May 25th. Group placed last year
and should be good enough to score
5. ALLURRE – 6th last time over 2000m in a Class 2 handicap at Lyon Parilly on June 24th.
Opposable
6. JOH SPIRIT – Unplaced last time, 3rd before that over 1850m in a Class 2 handicap on May
30th. Looks vulnerable
Summary: SILAWI (4) can get back on track in this Class 2 event. He is a capable performer on
his day and should be too smart for his rivals. His main danger could be RAVIOLI (1) who was a
fair third last time in a Listed race at Milan (ITA) over 1600m on June 9th. She will be competitive.
ROCQUEMONT (3) won a competitive handicap three starts ago at Marseille Borely and also
enters calculations.

Summary: GREEN CAPE (5) is well-bred and represents the very formidable team of Andre
Fabre and Mickaël Barzalona. It is hard to look past this as the opening event winner. HARVEY
(9) could be a threat on debut and deserves some respect. SCANDALO (8) is bred to sprint and
should be concerned with the finish. NEUSCHWANSTEIN (4) is another that could contest the
finish.

KHADIDJA (8) has a decent pedigree and deserves consideration. SCARLET VALENTINE (5)
can also contest the finish.

longer distance could suit him. SHANNKIYR (6) showed improvement over this track and trip last
time out and should have more to offer this time. NEPALAIS (7) liked this course and distance
last time out and is clearly not out of it. TROPISME (4) will strip fitter this time and could score.
