France Form Sheet – 21 September
Race Preview
RACE 1: DE VILLEBON MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1600M – TIME: 19:58 PRIZE MONEY: EUR50000
Summary: SHAMSAT (1) could be the answer in this field of unraced juveniles. He looks good
on paper and is related to four winners. KIRCHNER (5) is by Pinatubo who is having plenty of
winners, his dam won in Pattern class and this colt should know what is required. MILLAR (8) is
also from the Fabre stable and is the choice of Maxime Guyon. GEOPOLITICAL (6) looks the part
on paper and is one to watch in the betting market.
SELECTIONS
SHAMSAT (1) – KIRCHNER (5) – MILLAR (8) – GEOPOLITICAL (6)
RACE 2: DE CONDE STAKES – GROUP 3 (TURF TRACK) – 1800M – TIME: 20:33 PRIZE MONEY: EUR80000
Summary: SHANDANA (6) has looked like a classy filly on both of her starts and can make it
three wins in a row in this step-up in grade. LAZY GRIFF (4) is a danger and was a decent third in
a Listed race at Deauville in mid-August when last appearing. DIGNAM (1) makes the trip from
Ireland and won his maiden last time. He should be involved. GEZORA (7) won her maiden on
her second run and deserves a crack at this event.
SELECTIONS
SHANDANA (6) – LAZY GRIFF (4) – DIGNAM (1) – GEZORA (7)
RACE 3: DE LA GALERIE DES BATAILLES HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 1800M – TIME: 21:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR55000
Summary: NOBLEMAN (11) won well in a maiden at Marseille Borely earlier this month and ran
a decent race in a handicap before that on the PSF. He is the selection ahead of MASAIYA (14)
who has been knocking at the door recently with two second-placed efforts. She can make her
rivals work hard. AMORCITA (5) won on the PSF earlier in the year and ran a fair race when fifth
in a handicap 23 days ago at Parislongchamp. RAIMONDIN (8) is a winner two runs ago and can
make the top four.
SELECTIONS
NOBLEMAN (11) – MASAIYA (14) – AMORCITA (5) – RAIMONDIN (8)
RACE 4: DE TOUTEVOIE MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1600M – TIME: 21:50 PRIZE MONEY: EUR50000
Summary: Some nicely bred fillies from some of the leading stables line up for this maiden over
1600m. The well-bred TAJLINA (1) should know her job. Her dam was a top-class filly who won
three races including the Prix Vermeille (Gr.1). She can score from BLUE ISLAND (6) who has a
taking profile and will be well tuned. AQUA MIRABILIS (7) and LA LOUVIERE (10) are both bred
to be smart and should be watched in the betting exchanges.
SELECTIONS
TAJLINA (1) – BLUE ISLAND (6) – AQUA MIRABILIS (7) – LA LOUVIERE (10)
RACE 5: BERTRAND DE TARRAGON STAKES – GROUP 3 (TURF TRACK) – 1800M – TIME: 22:25 PRIZE MONEY: EUR80000
Summary: CETERA (11) is the tentative selection in an open Group 3 race. She has good form
at this track and was second in the Prix Sandringham (Gr.2) in June and ran a credible race when
fifth in a Group 3 race at Deauville last time. MOUNTAIN SONG (3) is an honest filly who scored
in a Listed race on her latest outing. She can be competitive. ANDROMEDE (2) is also one to
consider and can be on the premises. SEA THE LADY (4) can be in the shake-up.
SELECTIONS
CETERA (11) – MOUNTAIN SONG (3) – ANDROMEDE (2) – SEA THE LADY (4)
RACE 6: DE GOUY STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) – 1400M – TIME: 23:00 PRIZE MONEY: EUR19000
Summary: WONDER BOY (6) is ideally drawn in stall 2 and ran a good race at Deauville in a
Class 2 handicap on the PSF last time when he was not beaten far. He is preferred to
KIZMAMBO (9) who can win a race of this nature and acts well on the PSF. BONHEUR BLEU
(10) has place claims and was a winner at this track in 2021 and has placed efforts since then.
LUNALA (5) won last time in late August at Deauville and makes up the shortlist.
SELECTIONS
WONDER BOY (6) – KIZMAMBO (9) – BONHEUR BLEU (10) – LUNALA (5)
RACE 7: ECLIPSE STAKES – GROUP 3 (TURF TRACK) – 1200M – TIME: 23:35 PRIZE MONEY: EUR80000
Summary: FRAISE DES BOIS (6) was a good second in the Prix Du Calvados (Gr.2) over
1400m on her last run, and she won a Listed race before that. She should be too smart for
DETONATE (2) who is a winner over course and distance and was a decent third in a Class 2
race last month. TIGER MASK (3) has placed form in a Group 3 race at Sandown last time and
makes the trip from the UK. EPSON BLUE CEN (10) looks the best of the remainder.
SELECTIONS
FRAISE DES BOIS (6) – DETONATE (2) – TIGER MASK (3) – EPSON BLUE CEN (10)
RACE 8: DU BOIS FRANC CLAIMING STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) – 1900M – TIME: 00:10 PRIZE MONEY: EUR19000
Summary: ANONYMOUS (1) scored at Baden-Baden in Germany when last seen in late August.
That was his first run of the year and he had decent form last year in better-class races in France.
He can score from NOSDARGENT (4) who won two runs back at Deauville in a handicap on the
PSF in late July. JOSEPHINO (2) looks like a good option each-way. He acts well on the PSF. LA
SAUZEE (7) looks the best of the remainder.
SELECTIONS
ANONYMOUS (1) – NOSDARGENT (4) – JOSEPHINO (2) – LA SAUZEE (7)
RACE 9: DE LA GRANDE SINGERIE HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 1800M – TIME: 00:45 PRIZE MONEY: EUR28000
Summary: TANTOMILE (5) has decent placed form on her last three runs and looks ready to get
her head in front again. She has the most to fear from BEST SHALAA (6) who was a good third in
a handicap at Deauville in mid-August. IRTYCH (14) is racing off a good weight and looks like a
good option for the each-way backers. RUE CUSTINE (9) has been placed on her last three
starts and can once again have a say at the business end.
SELECTIONS
TANTOMILE (5) – BEST SHALAA (6) – IRTYCH (14) – RUE CUSTINE (9)
