Summary: ROYAL RIGHT (2) has been supplemented for the race and comes here in good shape.
He has won a couple of times in this division and is the one to beat. KAYRAT (1) has been in
stronger fields than this recently and could be a threat. FOXGLOVE (3) has won handicaps over
this track and trip and clearly needed the last run. L’INDOMPTABLE (6) may need to find a few
lengths to beat these rivals but could earn some money.
SELECTIONS
ROYAL RIGHT (2) – KAYRAT (1) – FOXGLOVE (3) – L’INDOMPTABLE (6)

Summary: HOSHIANA (7) has been threatening to win a race and gets the ideal opportunity to
score so is a confident pick. SPIRIT OF MEHMAS (8) is nicely bred and could be a lively danger
on his debut. BENNY THE WAITER (2) is sure to improve on the debut and can contest the finish
this time. MARVELOUS BY NIGHT (6) is back sprinting and can get involved with the finish.

RACE 3: VAISON-ROMAINE CLAIMING STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM MARSEILLE-BORELY RACE 3) – 2000M – TIME: 19:27 PRIZE MONEY: EUR15000
Summary: ALBINE (2) showed improvement when winning a handicap last time out and looks the
type that could double up now in a claimer. GOWAY (3) struggled last time out in this division but
is capable of better and is not out of it. RED COUNTESS (6) is in good shape and should be very
competitive again. TERRE BLANCHE (1) is another to consider over this distance back on the turf.
SELECTIONS
ALBINE (2) – GOWAY (3) – RED COUNTESS (6) – TERRE BLANCHE (1)
RACE 4: CABINET DES LIVRES HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 1) – 1200M – TIME: 19:55 PRIZE MONEY: EUR53000
Summary: FORZA CAPITANO (2) could be the most likely winner after a win last time at SaintCloud in late June, his confidence will be on a high. He has the most to fear from MAJOR OAK (4)
who has been in terrific shape with three wins in a row of late and although he has risen in the
weights he can still be a live competitor. DROGO (11) is reasonably treated on his best form and
has each-way claims. WHITE PLATIN (9) came back to some kind of form when he was third last
time, and has to be considered

RACE 5: COUPE MARSEILLE LISTED STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM MARSEILLE-BORELY RACE 4) – 2000M- TIME: 20:12 PRIZE MONEY: EUR55000
Summary: ARROW EAGLE (5) was not disgraced in Group 2 company last time out. He can make
amends and score in this Listed race. ARPENTEUR (2) is improving and won well last time out in
a handicap and can have more wins in the tank. MOTADARREK (4) did not show his best last time
out but could be more of a threat this distance returning from a break. AGUALETO (1) could like
this longer distance.
SELECTIONS
ARROW EAGLE (5) – ARPENTEUR (2) – MOTADARREK (4) – AGUALETO (1)
RACE 6: MANIGUETTE MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 2) – 1800M – TIME: 20:30 PRIZE MONEY: EUR30000
Summary: NITOI (8) has a choice profile and this half-brother to Junko ( Gr.1 winner-twice ) should
make a winning debut. GRAND DETOUR (3) ran a pleasing race on his first run when he was third
at Craon 16 days ago and looks like the main rival. WITHOUT (9) is also one that has a choice
pedigree. He should be watched closely in the betting market for any support. TOCA BOCA (7) is
also nicely bred and could be smart.
SELECTIONS
NITOI (8) – GRAND DETOUR (3) – WITHOUT (9) – TOCA BOCA (7)
RACE 7: COLONEL MALDAN STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM MARSEILLE-BORELY RACE 5) – 1700M – TIME: 20:47 PRIZE MONEY: EUR15000
Summary: BAIGNADE (7) is in good form and ran well over this course and distance last time out.
She is the narrow pick in a competitive race. CLASH OF CURRENTS (1) returned to form with a
good runner-up performance last time out and can go one better. ELUSIVE GLORY (6) has fair
form so far and could be ready to improve. KYLOA (8) won for this rider in her penultimate start so
deserves some respect.
SELECTIONS
BAIGNADE (7) – CLASH OF CURRENTS (1) – ELUSIVE GLORY (6) – KYLOA (8)
RACE 8: TILBURY STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 3) – 1900M – TIME: 21:05 PRIZE MONEY: EUR38000
Summary: HOOKING (1) can get a deserved success after a decent effort in the La Coupe (Gr.3)
at Parislongchamp when last seen in June. He is a winner on the PSF and has placed form at this
track on that surface. AZKA (4) will keep the selection honest. He was a decent third at Deauville
two starts ago in a Class 1 handicap last month. PERLE ROUGE (2) is also one to consider after
a win last time on the grass of a Class 2 race in August. ROCK BLANC (3) is a capable performer
if returning to his best.
SELECTIONS
HOOKING (1) – AZKA (4) – PERLE ROUGE (2) – ROCK BLANC (3)
RACE 9: HENRI CABASSU CLAIMING STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM MARSEILLE-BORELY RACE 6) – 1700M – TIME: 21:22 PRIZE MONEY: EUR16000
Summary: A tough race to be confident in. Trainer Jerome Reynier has a decent hand and
LEPARD (4) will strip fitter after the latest run. LE SAGE (8) is suited to this course and needed the
last run so should be a threat. ROCQUEMONT (2) is not reliable but is also quite capable of scoring
when in the mood. COUR DU ROI (1) is also unreliable but is another that can be considered a
possible winner.
SELECTIONS
LEPARD (4) – LE SAGE (8) – ROCQUEMONT (2) – COUR DU ROI (1)
RACE 10: FORTERELLE MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 4) – 1800M – TIME: 21:40 PRIZE MONEY: EUR30000
Summary: ROSA GALLICA (7) will be well-tuned for her debut. She has a taking profile. Her dam
was a classy operator who won six times including Listed Class and a Group 3 event.
EMMANUELLE (4) showed promise on her debut at Deauville last month and can improve from
that experience. SPRING LILY (5) has experience and was a decent second last time at Dieppe.
She can be competitive. KYRIELLE (8) is also one to watch in the betting market for any support.
SELECTIONS
ROSA GALLICA (7) – EMMANUELLE (4) – SPRING LILY (5) – KYRIELLE (8)
RACE 11: PILON DU ROI HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM MARSEILLE-BORELY RACE 7) – 2600M – TIME: 21:57 PRIZE MONEY: EUR17000
Summary: LOR BLANC (2) is threatening to win a race and could go one better and take out this
lucky-last race. MISS ROAZHON (11) flopped in a handicap last time out but could be a threat this
distance. ALROMY (9) carries a penalty for a good handicap win last time out and is a danger once
again. SELKET (7) just needed the last run and can contest the finish.
SELECTIONS
LOR BLANC (2) – MISS ROAZHON (11) – ALROMY (9) – SELKET (7)
RACE 12: PISTE RODOSTO MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 5) – 1200M – TIME: 22:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR30000
Summary: RAYEVKA (1) ran a pleasing race when she was second on her debut at Deauville in
late August. She can step forward from that and should put that experience to good use. ARCTIC
SUMMER (6) has a nice profile and is bred to be above average. Her dam was a Listed winner and
this filly can feature. BELLA INDIA (3) has been placed on both of her runs and the slight drop in
trip could be more suitable. STAR OF BRITTANY (2) heads the remainder.
SELECTIONS
RAYEVKA (1) – ARCTIC SUMMER (6) – BELLA INDIA (3) – STAR OF BRITTANY (2)
RACE 13: DE SAINT-FIRMIN MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 6) – 1200M – TIME: 22:50 PRIZE MONEY: EUR30000
Summary: A good opportunity for IRONICO (1) to get off the mark after two promising efforts so
far. He was beaten a length at Deauville last time and he can get the better of MEHMIST (2) who
caught the eye when fourth at Dieppe on his debut late last month. TEN PLUS ONE CEN (8) is
making his debut and has a choice pedigree. With a top jockey booking in Mickael Barzalona, he
can be competitive. BELVEDERE PALACE (6 ) makes up the shortlist.
SELECTIONS
IRONICO (1) – MEHMIST (2) – TEN PLUS ONE CEN (8) – BELVEDERE PALACE (6)
RACE 14: CHAPELLE SAINT-PIERRE STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 7) – 1100M – TIME: 23:25 PRIZE MONEY: EUR35000
Summary: SHAMROCK GLITTER (6) has been in top form with a win and two second-placed runs
in Listed races on his last two runs. He can score from GRAND SCOOP (5) who was a decent
third in a Listed event at this track and trip two runs ago in June. SYMMETRIC POWER (1) has
been highly tried in Pattern races recently and is capable of being involved. LA MANDALA (7) got
the job done in a Class 2 race last time and can be on the premises.
SELECTIONS
SHAMROCK GLITTER (6) – GRAND SCOOP (5) – SYMMETRIC POWER (1) – LA MANDALA
(7)
RACE 15: ROI MANUSCRITS HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM CHANTILLY RACE 8) – 1200M – TIME: 00:00 PRIZE MONEY: EUR27000
Summary: An open race with the top weight VICTORY SALUTE (1) looking in good shape on his
last two runs, he could be the most likely winner. LOVELY ANGEL (5) has been a tad tame on her
last three outings, but she can return to form and make the selection pull out all of the stops.
SCARFACE (12) has a good racing weight and looks like a good option for the each-way backers.
IGNOL (3) ran well last time when third and looks like a solid top-four candidate.
SELECTIONS
VICTORY SALUTE (1) – LOVELY ANGEL (5) – SCARFACE (12) – IGNOL (3)
