RACE 1: DE L’AVESNOIS MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1400M – TIME: 20:20 PRIZE MONEY: EUR27400
Summary: WOLLEMI (2) ran a pleasing race on his debut at Deauville 16 days ago when he was third over 1200m. He can improve further and should be well suited by the step up in trip today. SAMANGAN (8) has a taking profile and could be the one to shake up the likely favourite. His trainer has a good record with newcomers. SYDNEY SUNSET (5) can step forward from his fourth place effort on debut over track and trip in June and warrants respect. TRINQUETTE (3) is also worth considering.

WOLLEMI (2) – SAMANGAN (8) – SYDNEY SUNSET (5) – TRINQUETTE (3)
RACE 2: DES NAIADES MAIDEN STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1400M – TIME: 20:55 PRIZE MONEY: EUR27400
Summary: WARAMINI (3) showed good promise when second over the course and distance in late June on her debut. She will know more this time and get off the mark at the expense of ROCK OF ROSHA (1), who looks like she can be the main danger after a good second at Chantilly on her sole start on June 24th. PIANA (4) showed ability over an inadequate trip on debut and will enjoy the step up in trip today. WITH LOVE GRACE (2) can also improve from a nice debut effort.

RACE 3: BONNEUIL VALOIS CLAIMING STAKES (TURF TRACK) – 1800M – TIME: 21:30 PRIZE MONEY: EUR18200
Summary: ZACAPO (3) arrives on the back of a solid runner-up finish in Germany and brings strong credentials. With a Class 3 win and a second-place effort in Class 2 company already under his belt, he rates a key contender. PRINCE OF CLOUDS (4) has been tested in higher-grade races and shaped well when third in a Class 2 handicap at Saint-Cloud in late March. EL RUBIO (6) presents as a value each-way prospect. CHARLESQUINT (2) is a seasoned campaigner at this level and deserves respect.
SELECTIONS
ZACAPO (3) – PRINCE OF CLOUDS (4) – EL RUBIO (6) – CHARLESQUINT (2)
RACE 4: DE CLAIROIX HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 2400M – TIME: 22:05 PRIZE MONEY: EUR20200
Summary: RIVER QUARTZ (4) has shown steady improvement in handicap company and went close when finishing second at Saint-Cloud in June. He looks well placed to get off the mark. DSCHINGIS POWER (10) is another on an upward trajectory, and his runner-up effort at Chantilly late last month suggests he’s ready to strike. SCULPTURALE (3) has been active with two placed efforts this month, and provided she handles the quick turnaround, she remains a threat. FIGHT TO FLY (2) leads the remainder.
SELECTIONS
RIVER QUARTZ (4) – DSCHINGIS POWER (10) – SCULPTURALE (3) – FIGHT TO FLY (2)
RACE 5: FORET DE RETZ HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 1400M – TIME: 22:40 PRIZE MONEY: EUR25900
Summary: TOKYO DREAMER (7) ran well to finish third in a Class 3 handicap at Chantilly earlier this month and looks ready to open her account. GO WITH THE ROSES (11) is also chasing her first win, having posted two recent runner-up efforts—the latest coming just 13 days ago at Chantilly. CHIVERE (6) boasts a consistent record of placed finishes and remains in the hunt for a maiden breakthrough. TANTOMILE (2), with three second-place efforts recently, cannot be ignored.

RACE 6: DU BERVAL HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 2400M – TIME: 23:15 PRIZE MONEY: EUR19200
Summary: DANSE S Y (5) produced a decent effort when finishing fourth last time out and is confidently selected as the top choice to finish much closer here. WINGS OF FIRE (11) was a firm winner previously and would be of no surprise if he follows up in this sort of field. BAILEYS ECLAIR (8) has tons of racing experience and will be looking to improve on his current performance. MINNATA (4) completes the top four selection.

RACE 7: PIERREFONDS HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 1400M – TIME: 00:00 PRIZE MONEY: EUR50900
Summary: ALVA (1) ran an absolute eye cracker when finishing second in a Class 2 division and has all the accolades to make strong winning contentions here. ALABAMA MOON (5) has finished third in her last two runs over the distance and looks the biggest threat to the selection. LA MANDALA (4) defeated a weaker field over the trip in her last start and has a stronger task at hand to oppose the top two choices. GUALDA (7) has run three seconds in her last four starts and must be given serious consideration. BATESCA (14) must be included in all betting calculations.
SELECTIONS
ALVA (1) – ALABAMA MOON (5) – LA MANDALA (4) – GUALDA (7)
RACE 8: D’HARAMONT HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 2400M – TIME: 00:35 PRIZE MONEY: EUR21100
Summary: EASTERN STAR (15) showed vast improvement when finishing third in his last start and looks to be filled with confidence to be more electrifying at the finishing post. ATHINEOS (5) is always there and thereabout but needs to sparkle his form a bit to bounce back to his competitive ways. Supplemented IRTYCH (11) looks to be well entered and will give a good account of himself. FORZA SEDACA (2) cherishes the 2400m and looks to be enjoying his racing. He has the ability to school the above choices if they are caught asleep.
SELECTIONS
EASTERN STAR (15) – ATHINEOS (5) – IRTYCH (11) – FORZA SEDACA (2)
RACE 9: FRESNOY RIVIERE HANDICAP (TURF TRACK) – 2400M – TIME: 01:10 PRIZE MONEY: EUR14400
Summary: VESINABA (5) brings plenty of experience and his good form into this race. He will be looking to claim his ninth career win in this tough Handicap. MY DARLING (1) finished a close up second last time out and will look to go one more against her opposition. PARFAITE MERILL (3) looked to enjoy the step up to the 3000m last time out and although coming back to the 2400m, she will be finishing her race off strong. KALEOBAYANE (6) was short of the victory in her last start and must be given serious consideration here.
