Race Preview
RACE 1: DES CHRYSANTHEMES STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 1) – 1600M – TIME: 19:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR27000
Summary: An easy winner on debut at Saint-Cloud earlier this month NIZAM (1) made a
beautiful impression and could remain unbeaten. FOUR FOUR FOUR (3) was a convincing
scorer on this track last month and appears to be the main danger. Despite being hampered last
time out, SPANISH PRINCE (2) finished the race off well and can be involved in the finish again.
GREEN CAPE (4) was a game second last time at Saint-Cloud and can go close too.
SELECTIONS
NIZAM (1) – FOUR FOUR FOUR (3) – SPANISH PRINCE (2) – GREEN CAPE (4)
RACE 2: DES AMATEURS HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 2) – 3150M – TIME: 19:45 PRIZE MONEY: EUR17000
Summary: (2) AMANTA COVE remains on two good runner-up performances at this level and
should soon return to victory. PASIPHAE (1) usually goes well at this track. She is in good form
and has to be respected. MORNING SPIRIT (5) is improving and seems to be on a competitive
mark on her handicap debut. WUKOLINA (8) won well at Cavaillon and does enjoy this distance
so also deserves some respect.
SELECTIONS
AMANTA COVE (2) – PASIPHAE (1) – MORNING SPIRIT (5) – WUKOLINA (8)
RACE 3: LA FLECHE STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 3) – 1000M – TIME: 20:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR22000
Summary: MARY GOLD (4) is going through a purple patch of form. She looks better than ever
after her second place in a Listed Race in Italy last time out and gets the vote to score.
LESSLEPASSER (1) has the highest rating in this race and is the biggest threat to the selection.
PUREST TIME (3) comes back in distance but has won over 1000m previously. CAPITANO (2)
proved his form in the Czech Republic and should not be taken lightly. .
SELECTIONS
MARY GOLD (4) – LESSLEPASSER (1) – PUREST TIME (3) – CAPITANO (2)
RACE 4: GILLES DENIS HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 4) – 1350M – TIME: 20:46 PRIZE MONEY: EUR20000
Summary: MANAROLA (6) is holding form and only found one better on the day last time out at
Nîmes. She is very effective on soft tracks and gets a narrow vote to score. KING ROBBE (4)
carries a penalty for a good win last time out but will remains interesting to follow. IDEE DE
CHEVAL (8) is consistent and will give everything he has once again. NOLITO (5) is one of a few
more that has a winning chance in a competitive race.
SELECTIONS
MANAROLA (6) – KING ROBBE (4) – IDEE DE CHEVAL (8) – NOLITO (5)
RACE 5: BAGUENAULT DE PUCHESSE HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 5) – 2000M – TIME: 21:18 PRIZE MONEY: EUR18000
Summary: CAZADERO (1) is improving with each start and every step up in distance, so this
extended trip should unlock further progress. He gets the nod on his handicap debut ahead of
BERLINETTA (2), despite the removal of the latter’s headgear in which she had improved.
Nevertheless, she leads the opposition although DUCHESSE DE MORNY (3), whose
encouraging last start over this trip bodes well for her chances, also has the means to play a
leading role. RUE DU PERCHE (6) and CERVINIA (4) complete the shortlist.
SELECTIONS
CAZADERO (1) – BERLINETTA (2) – DUCHESSE DE MORNY (3) – RUE DU PERCHE (6)
RACE 6: DE PONT-DE-VIVAUX STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 6) – 2000M – TIME: 21:51 PRIZE MONEY: EUR14000
Summary: Consistent RUE D’ALBRET (8) has regained momentum and wouldn’t be winning out
of turn – she is a genuine candidate for success. However, KATE DADDY (2) fits a similar profile
so should fight for victory too. MOMO NELSON (1) didn’t go unnoticed on PSF last time and has
the means to play a leading role back on the turf. DEL CIELO (10) has shown progress with the
addition of the blinkers and could also have a say in the outcome.
SELECTIONS RUE D’ALBRET (8) – KATE DADDY (2) – MOMO NELSON (1) – DEL CIELO (10)
RACE 7: DU GRAND CAMP LISTED STAKES (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 7) – 2400M – TIME: 22:24 PRIZE MONEY: EUR52000
Summary: BIRR CASTLE (2) sets the standard here and need only repeat his Prix Dollar
performance (3rd), behind subsequent Group I Champion Stakes winner Anmaat, to resume
winning ways. DARING PRINCE (6) has the form and experience to pose a threat along with
PLEASEMAN (4) who deserves a crack at this level having won both starts under Conny
Whitfield’s tutelage. Listed winner in Poland recently, KANESHYA (1) appeals most of the
remainder.
SELECTIONS
BIRR CASTLE (2) – DARING PRINCE (6) – PLEASEMAN (4) – KANESHYA (1)
RACE 8: DU MONT LION STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 1) – 2500M – TIME: 22:42 PRIZE MONEY: EUR23000
Summary: RODAINAH (2) has been in top form of late and can get the hat-trick of wins at the
expense of the well-handicapped CASSIUS (6) who has been competing in stronger races of late
without success. ALMACADO GREE (5) looks like a sensible option for the each-way backers to
look at. CENTRICAL (3) won two starts ago at Craon in late September and looks best of the
remainder.
SELECTIONS
RODAINAH (2) – CASSIUS (6) – ALMACADO GREE (5) – CENTRICAL (3)
RACE 9: DU PARC BORELY HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) (FROM LYON-PARILLY RACE 8) – 2400M – TIME: 23:00 PRIZE MONEY: EUR20000
Summary: TOLLEVAST (1) changed hands after winning a Saint-Cloud claimer last month and
made an encouraging debut for his new connections when finishing 6th in a handicap at
Clairefontaine, and a repeat of that performance should suffice against this opposition. Last-start
scorer MOZART DES BRIERES (5), course-and-distance winner ZLARA (4), whose return to turf
shouldn’t be underestimated, and recent Saint-Cloud eye-catcher SOUND OF SIXTIES (6) are
best equipped to expose any chinks in the selection’s armour.
SELECTIONS
TOLLEVAST (1) – MOZART DES BRIERES (5) – ZLARA (4) – SOUND OF SIXTIES (6)
RACE 10: DE ROIVILLE STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 2) – 2500M – TIME: 23:18 PRIZE MONEY: EUR23000
Summary: ALPAMAYO (4) looks progressive and was a nice winner on his third run at Nancy at
the end of September in a maiden event. He can keep improving and score from MUSIC
TEACHER (7) who won two starts ago at Craon and was a decent third last time in a handicap at
Chantilly late last month. SPINELLO (2) is also one to respect and looks capable of having a say
in proceedings. LA DO RE (5) is also worth mentioning.
SELECTIONS
ALPAMAYO (4) – MUSIC TEACHER (7) – SPINELLO (2) – LA DO RE (5)
RACE 11: DE LA PIGEONNIERE MAIDEN STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 3) – 1400M – TIME: 23:53 PRIZE MONEY: EUR22000
Summary: CONCERTATION (9) has had plenty of race experience and this looks like a good
opportunity for this filly to finally get her head in front. AMABATI (14) can improve a good deal for
her debut run at Compiegne last month when she was a pleasing second. She can play a lead
role. SPRING HEART (4) was third in the same race at Compiegne and can once again be on the
premises. NURTURE (13) looks best of the remainder.
SELECTIONS
CONCERTATION (9) – AMABATI (14) – SPRING HEART (4) – NURTURE (13)
RACE 12: DE L’OPERATION EPSOM HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 4) – 1900M – TIME: 00:28 PRIZE MONEY: EUR22000
Summary: SEE THE LIGHT (8) was a decent second at this track in a Class 3 handicap last
month and holds strong claims for another success. HAVANA SIX (11) could be the main threat.
She also has a good second-placed effort at this track on her CV recently. ADWAN (16) looks like
a safe option each-way. He has a low weight and is well drawn in stall 2. CHUBASCO (14) is also
one to consider and makes up the shortlist.
SELECTIONS
SEE THE LIGHT (8) – HAVANA SIX (11) – ADWAN (16) – CHUBASCO (14)
RACE 13: DE L’OPERATION GOODWOOD HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 5) – 1900M – TIME: 01:00 PRIZE MONEY: EUR20000
Summary: LUCI DEL FARO (1) has the talent to take a race of this nature despite being head of
the handicap. He should have the tactical speed to get a nice position from an unfavourable draw
in stall 12. MAGIC TUNIS (3) will do his best to keep the selection honest. He ran well at Lyon La
Soie last time when he was third in late October in a handicap. ZWIALH (12) and MONTGAUDRY
(15) are both options for the each-way bakers to take seriously.
SELECTIONS
LUCI DEL FARO (1) – MAGIC TUNIS (3) – ZWIALH (12) – MONTGAUDRY (15)
RACE 14: DE L’OPERATION WINDSOR HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 6) – 1900M – TIME: 01:30 PRIZE MONEY: EUR16000
Summary: SEA WINGS (9) was a pleasing second at this racecourse in late October when last
seen and is marginally preferred to ZELZALITA (11) who has eased in the ratings and can be
competitive after a close-up fifth at Chantilly on the PSF last time. L’HIPPOCAMPE (6) can get
back to his better form at a track that he likes and is a course and distance winner at. FULL
COLOUR (5) makes up the shortlist.
SELECTIONS
SEA WINGS (9) – ZELZALITA (11) – L’HIPPOCAMPE (6) – FULL COLOUR (5)
RACE 15: DE LA BANCHE CLAIMING STAKES (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 7) – 1900M – TIME: 02:00 PRIZE MONEY: EUR24000
Summary: PURPLE LION (1) won on his third run at Saint-Cloud last time in a claimer and looks
capable of following up here. YOUNG AND PROUD (4) is dropping in class and has a good deal
of talent. He can make his rivals work hard for success. LOUIS DEUX (6) was a credible fifth in a
maiden last time and can make the top three. RETT ANGEL (3) makes up the shortlist.
SELECTIONS
PURPLE LION (1) – YOUNG AND PROUD (4) – LOUIS DEUX (6) – RETT ANGEL (3)
RACE 16: DE L’OPERATION SPRING HANDICAP (FIBRESAND TRACK) (FROM DEAUVILLE RACE 8) – 1900M – TIME: 02:30 PRIZE MONEY: EUR14000
Summary: PARMENIDE (1) has top weight to contend with but will be much fitter today after a
run in a handicap in mid-October when he acquitted himself well until getting tired in the latter
stages. He is preferred to KANIFUSHI (5) who has been second on the last two runs and looks
overdue for another success. HOT SUMMER (3) has been placed on his last two starts and looks
like a sensible option each way. BALINA GARY (4) warrants respect and can be on the premises.
SELECTIONS
PARMENIDE (1) – KANIFUSHI (5) – HOT SUMMER (3) – BALINA GARY (4)
