MOLLY MADRIK (7) is better than her last run would suggest and can win a race of this nature. MILLESIMA (1) is best judged on her two wins earlier this year and is a real threat to these rivals. MODE DU VALLON (13) is not easy to trust but can also get involved with the finish when staying in stride.

JADORE D’ISQUES (10) has shown improvement of late and is coming off a confidence-boosting win. JASMIN DU NORD (4) has held his form well of late and could be a lively danger over this shorter trip. JACKSON BOY (9) was a good winner at this track last week and is another to consider.

C1 – PRIX D’ARNAGE – 2300m (a1m1/2) – TURF – Condition – Flat – EUR € 15,100

  1. MAJOR STAR – 3yo gelding by King Edward out of Passing Sale mare Rose Star trained by David Cottin. All four of the mare’s progeny that have raced have won
  2. MARTAGNAN D ATHON – 3yo gelding by Telecaster out of Ange Gabriel mare Bella Dona D’Aton trained by P&C Peltier. Third foal to race with mare having produced one winner
  3. MAGNUM D’ERABLE – 3yo gelding by Beaumec De Houelle out of Cokoriko mare Gitane Bleue trained by Patrice Quinton. Mare won the Gr3 Prix Yves D’Armaille at Lignieres in 2019. Only raced foal has 2 wins and 5 places from 8 starts
  4. MARCHE AVANT – 3yo gelding by Doctor Dino out of Dom Alco mare Visionice trained by Francois Nicolle. Dam won on the Flat before going on to capture a Listed Hurdles race. Third foal to race, no winners
  5. MARIACHI – 3yo gelding by Karaktar out of Linda’s Lad mare Belle Ile trained by Yannick Fouin. Dam has produced two winners
  6. MERCI MIMI – 3yo filly by Jeu St Eloi out of Dom Alco mare Terenice trained by Yannick Fouin. Half-sister to 10-time winning hurdler Happy Day
  7. MAHAURI SEA – 3yo filly by Bathyrhon out of Great Pretender mare Bubble Sea trained by Gregoire Leenders. Dam ran 3rd in the Gr1 Prix de Craon and so far two of her foals have run for just one win
    Summary: Field is made up of some interesting first-timers but based on breeding MARCHE AVANT (4) looks the runner to beat. His dam had a win and two places on the Flat before moving on to hurdle racing where she won a Listed race. MAHAURI SEA (7) is another from a strong female line as her dam was a five-time winner. MAJOR STAR (1) is a half-brother to Gr3 runner-up Glory Star and all of the dam’s progeny to have raced have won. MARTAGNAN D ATHON (2) is also well related.

  8. GALAGOS – Ran 3rd in a Conditions race over 2100m at Tarbes on 12 October. That was an improved run trying further and he could be competitive
  9. ALWAYS WELCOME – Won a conditions race over 2000m at Fontainebleau on 3 November. He has placed in a Listed race and seems to have struck up a winning combination with Delphine Santiago
  10. BELIEVER – A disappointing 7th race in a Conditions race over this course and distance on 29 October. That was his first run back after a 5-month break and he is better than that last run. Will be fitted with blinkers for this race
  11. LOVE IS GOLD – Ran 5th in a Handicap over 1900m on the sand at Deauville on 20 October. However, finished 3rd in a Handicap at this course in his penultimate start
  12. LADY ANGELINA – A reasonable 3rd in a Conditions race over 1650m at Machecoul on 2 November. Tries further for the first time and takes on stronger
  13. SEPULVEDA – Last time was 10th in a Handicap over 2500m at Saint-Cloud on 26 October. Ran 2nd over this track at trip on her penultimate start so must have a place chance at least
  14. SUNSHINE BABY – Finished 9th in a Listed race over 2000m at Compiegne on 10 October. Drops in class this time and is now trained by Mickaël Berto so improvement is anticipated
    Summary: ALWAYS WELCOME (2) comes off a gutsy victory, and reconnected with winning rider Delphine Santiago, who gets a weight allowance, could notch up a quick double. BELIEVER (3) did not show his true ability in his first run back from a break but he has been racing well against stronger and must be considered. LOVE IS GOLD (4) finished fifth in a Quinté+ recently and has form at this course. SUNSHINE BABY (7) comes in with a light weight and drops in class.

  17. WESTMINSTER COYOTE – Won a Maiden over 1600m at Bordeaux Le Bouscat on 4 November. A fluent winner on that occasion and should have more to come
  18. LIKE LINDY – Ran 5th in a Conditions race over 1300m at Chantilly (sand) on 28 October. This filly is the top rated runner in this line-up and back on turf could have the edge
  19. REMENBER CHOPE – Finished 4th in a Handicap over 1400m at Chantilly (sand) on 31 October. Tries this distance for the first time but should handle it
  20. FELINI – Unraced 2yo gelding by Zelzal out Dragon Pulse mare Shdedah trained by Edouard Monfort. Dam has produced just one winner
  21. LADY TEDSMORE – A decent enough 4th in a Maiden over 1600m at Saint-Cloud on 16 October. Coming into this with just 53kg on her back, could have a say in the finish
    Summary: This race could be a close tussle between LIKE LINDY (4), who showed a touch of class when winning on the straight course at Deauville course in August, and supplementary entry WESTMINSTER COYOTE (3). The latter has only raced three times and has improved with each effort, winning confidently last time out. LIKE LINDY (4) could have the edge as she has a 1.5kg advantage. (4)LADY TEDSMORE (7) and HEY JO (2) have only raced twice and should make rapid progress.

  22. MISTY CITY – A moderate 5th in a Handicap over 1200m at Fontainebleau on 13 November. On best form could run into a place
  23. AMELIA – Finished 4th in a Claimer over 1200m at Fontainebleau on 3 November. That was a slightly better effort but she still needs to up her game to feature
  24. LOVE ADDICT – Won a Claimer over 1200m at Agen on 26 October. That was only her third run and there could be more improvement to come
  25. PEPIER – A close-up 2nd in a claimer over 1200m at Fontainebleau on 3 November. It was his first run at this level and had blinkers fitted. Should be right up there again
  26. TOMOE GOZEN – A poor 9th in a Conditions race over 1600m at Chantilly on 8 November. Has been mediocre in both her starts and is best ignored
  27. GLORIOUS CROSS – Was 8th in a Maiden over 1600m at this course on 29 October. There will need to be massive progress if she is to feature
  28. JOUE CHOPE – Ran 12th in a Handicap over 1400m at Chantilly on 31 October. She drops sharply in class and this race looks ideal for her to pick up a first win
  29. NOIRA – Encouraging 5th in a Maiden over 1600m at this track on 29 October. That was his first run after gelding and we should see even more progress this time
  30. PROCEED WITH SPEED – Finished 5th in a Claimer over 1500m at Deauville on 7 November. Running well enough to be competitive at this level, especially as he will be fitted with blinkers for this race
    Summary: A Handicap looked too strong for JOUE CHOPE (7) last time but dropping to a Claimer with Sebastiano Deriu in the irons, she looks ideally weighted to shed her Maiden. PEPIER (4) only found his stable companion too good last time when fitted with blinkers. He retains the headgear and should be competitive. NOIRA (8) showed more promise in his first run after gelding and looks a threat while PROCEED WITH SPEED (9) is back on turf after two moderate runs on sand, and has blinkers fitted.

  45. FINE PLUME D’AVRIL – This filly is out of the mare Fine Plume who raced once and did not feature well in her career. One to respectfully pass by here
    Summary: QUEEN D’AUNOU (6) is a filly that has run three times with promise and has the urge to break her maiden spell. The greenlight points in her direction to claim her victorious throne. FREENESS (10) made massive improvement when finishing second over a further distance and if the top choice fluffs her lines, she could take full advantage of that. GOT MAN (4) delivered a solid second over the track and trip and returns where it would be of no revelation if he makes amends for his last run. BLACK SHEEP (1) holds a solid place chance.

  58. BARON DE FLANDRES – This colt is out of the 2 time winning mare Ghur who raced over the hurdles and Steeplechase. He could put up a decent debut run
  59. LYLOUMEL – This filly is out of the 1 time winning mare Miss Flicka who raced 17 times in her career. Others seem more intriguing here
  60. BUGATTI DESJY – This filly is out of the 3 time winning mare Sea Dame who featured in the steeplechase and hurdles races. She could be anything in the making
    Summary: MOPSO (1) seems to be enjoying the French tracks against the Spanish surfaces where he started his career. His last run when finishing third was a credible effort and can pursue breaking the maiden shackles off his hooves here. KOWALSKI (2) is always there and thereabout and seems to be enjoying the flat surfaces. He can threaten the top selection. JAZZ ROQUE (5) has been featuring in the steeplechase races of late but he did finish fourth four starts back over the flat and can give a good account. BARON DE FLANDRES (13) debuts and could be anything in the making.

  1. BEDDA VITA – Placed 3rd on her last run over 2000m at Marseille Pont Vivaux on October 8th in a maiden race. Outside place chance
  2. HABIBA – She scored in a claiming race over 1800m at this track on October 24th. Stall 13 is not ideal, but she has place claims
  3. SVANETIE – She can improve from her 7th-place effort at Compiegne on October 10th in a maiden over 1800m. Among the leading each way options
  4. ANAHEIM – 9th on the sole start over 1600m in a conditions race at Lyon Parilly on September 3rd. Unlikely to be involved
  5. MOON GATSBY – Two unplaced runs so far, the latest over 2000m at Vichy on September 22nd at Vichy. This might be a step too far
  6. EAU DE ROSE – Placed on her first two runs, 4th on her penultimate at Craon on September 28th over 1850m in a maiden race, not disgraced last time at Deauville 15 days ago. Player
  7. ANASHKAYA – Showed promise when 5th over 1600m in a maiden at Chantilly on September 25th. Open to progress and can not be overlooked

  10. LIZETTE – Two unplaced efforts, 7th at Chantilly on the latter in a maiden on October 2nd over 1400m. Capable of a better run
  11. LIBERTY AMOUR – Two decent 2nd place runs, the latest over 1800m at Salon Provence on September 30th in a maiden race. Key chance
  12. SARMYA – Unraced filly by Jimmy Two Times, the dam never raced. Stable runners tend to need a run or two for experience. The betting can guide
  13. TOUR TO VANCOUVER – Unraced filly by George Vancouver, the dam won two races on the flat. Likely to need this run unless the betting speaks volumes
    Summary: LIBERTY AMOUR (11) has shaped well on both starts when second on each of them. She is well-positioned in stall 6 and can get off the mark. OCRA (8) could be the one that gives the selection the most to think about. Her third at Marseille Borely last month was her best run so far. ANASHKAYA (7) can make the top three despite a wide draw. EAU DE ROSE (6) has two placed efforts and can not be ruled out.

SIGTUNA (1) has been running well with two wins and a second in his last three runs. He can make the selection work hard. SUNSET ASHRAM (4) looks like a sensible each-way option.

    Summary: MONA TREZY (2) is the tentative selection after two recent placed runs. The latter over 2400 m at this track in early November. BRAVE SHIINA (1) can be a threat. He was a decent second at this track three runs back in early October and is best judged on that performance. SIR WALTER (11) arrives after two placed runs, both at this track, and looks solid each-way. EXHIT (13) has stall 14 to contend with, but remains capable of making the top four.

    Summary: SPIRIT GREY (5) ran a good race when second over 2150m in a Class 4 handicap at this track last month and can go one place better this time. FETE JOYEUSE (3) beat the selection by three-quarters of a length in the race last month. Under revised conditions, the balance sways in the former’s favour.

  59. LA BELLA OTERO – Dead-heated for third over 1800m at Chantilly on October 14th in a handicap last time. Capable of making her presence felt
  60. RUE HELENE –
  61. KUPKA – Placed 3rd on his last run over 1800m at Chantilly on October 14th in a handicap. He seems to be getting his act together and can feature
  62. ZENBATI – Decent 2nd over 1800m at Chantilly on October 14th in a handicap last time. Can play a leading role again
  63. STAR CREEK – Five unplaced runs, 5th at this track over 1800m in a handicap last time out on October 24th. Looks of limited ability
  64. SYLVABELLE – Unplaced last time, a win before that over 1600m in a claimer at Lyon Parilly on June 7th. Others seem better equipped
  65. WETTERKOPF – Has shown minimal ability in five unplaced runs, the latter over 1400m at Strasbourg on May 28th in a handicap. Pass over
  66. TEPITO – Two unplaced runs of late, the latter over 2400m in a claiming race on July 20th. Look for an alternative
    Summary: KUPKA (6) has improved with race experience and produced his best effort to date when dead-heating in a Chantilly handicap in mid-October with LA BELLA OTERO (4), who brings plenty of experience. The main selection remains lightly raced and has greater potential for progress. ZENBATI (7) finished one place ahead of them in second and can give another good account. RIGOLETTOS (3) has been campaigning in Hungary on his last two starts and handles the PSF well, having finished third at Marseille-Pont Vivaux in April.

  69. WITTELSBACH – Placed 3rd on his last run over 1600m at Bordeaux Le Bouscat on October 14th in a maiden race. Each way player
  70. IL MAGISTERO – 6th on his second start over 1600m at Lyon Parilly on October 7th in a maiden race. Unlikely to trouble the principles

    Summary: REGAL EYE (6) has shown promise in all three starts, with two second-place efforts on two of them. He was a pleasing runner-up at Deauville on November 1st in a maiden on his last start. He can get off the mark at the expense of WOLVERINE (2), who improved to be third on his second start at Lyon Parilly late last month. WITTELSBACH (3) could be one to look at each way. WARHOLM (7) looks best of the remainder.
