GREEN SPIRIT (10) finished third in that contest and could prove the best of the French-trained fillies. EVOLUTIONIST (1) impressed when winning her trial in April before producing an excellent runner-up effort in the English 1000 Guineas (Gr.1) at Newmarket early last month, making her a major contender. ESNA (6) also warrants respect after a Listed success in mid-May and is another with strong claims.

With that run under her belt, she is taken to come out on top. TIFFANY (4) rates the main danger. She has also been competing at the highest level, the latest when finishing fourth in the Grosser Allianz Preis von Bayern at Munich-Riem in November. INDALIMOS (3) appeals as a solid each-way contender, while ELEGANZ (1) looks best of the remainder.

  71. TIMBER CIRCLE – Several unplaced efforts this year, the latter over 2000m at Saint-Cloud in a Class 3 handicap on June 2nd. Out of form and is best watched
  72. LONDONPOLO – Placed on the last four runs, 3rd on the latter over 2000m at Parislongchamp in a Class 2 handicap on May 10th. Live contender

  76. GAIDAR – Recent success over 2200m at Haras Du Pin in a Class 4 race on May 24th. Among the leading contenders

He can be too smart for the promising ELASTIC (4), who is the only three year old in the race and his fifth in the Poule D’Essai Des Poulains (Gr.1) in early May was encouraging. MATAURI BAY (3) has been performing well in slightly easier races and has to be respected.

    Summary: SPACE WALTZ (2) brings strong form to the table, having finished a commendable second in the Prix Noailles (Gr.3) at Parislongchamp on his latest outing in early April. The step up in distance could bring out more progress. RUMORISTE (4) rates the chief danger after showing plenty of determination to land a Listed contest over 2400m at Parislongchamp in mid-May. CHAMALI (1) also enters calculations after a creditable performance in Group 3 company recently and should not be overlooked.

    Summary: Having shaped well on her debut in the mounted code, MISS EUROPA (15) could play a leading role in this competitive field. Recent Graignes winner MALOUINES QUESNOT (12) arrives in top form and must be hugely respected. MEYEURTO POINSTART (16) is worth noting on the strength of last season’s efforts. MAGIC DIGEO (11) also has solid references, particularly his early-year performance at Vincennes, and is not without a chance if reproducing that level form.

    Summary: NORMAND D’AMOUR (11) did not go unnoticed after his early disqualification on debut and appears to have the ability to play a leading role here, provided he keeps his action together throughout. NESPRESSO MIJO (4) is worth monitoring on the evidence of his first promising. NEWLIFE DE CAHOT (6) is a tricky customer but not short of ability and could make the frame with a smooth run. If staying composed, NIL DAIRPET (9) is also capable of getting involved at the business end.

    Summary: A competitive loking race. Fully unshod for this attractive engagement, KELLY D’ERABLE (7) has the means to bounce back and beat these rivals. KALANSKA (8), now with two runs under her belt, could be the main danger. KARELLE DU DORAT (1), a recent winner at Graignes, should contest the finish once again.

    Summary: Absent since December 2024, JUSSEO (18) is nonetheless ready to go from the outset and has the class to make his presence felt. IGGYPOP D’HERFRAIE (17), who shaped well on his return should improve and is an obvious danger. JOISO POKER PRO (9), back in form, looks a danger as well..

    Summary: A tricky lucky last race. KOBE BEJI (3) has been knocking on the door with a string of god results and finds a good opportunity here. He holds a leading chance on form. The opposition is headed by KRONOS DU KLAU (8), racing barefoot, along with KAROLUS FAIR (6), provided he keeps to his stride. KISS ME POLE (1), making his first start for a new yard and partnered by Sébastien Ernault, is capable of shing brightly.

The chief threat may come from KING OPERA (14), who shaped particularly well on his reappearance at Granville. INVICTUS DE NILREM (5) benefits from an ideal engagement and is difficult to dismiss. JOMA OV (3) is of interest racing barefoot all round, a setup rarely employed, and could step forward as a result.

  24. KISS MAKER – A runner-up in class F at Saint-Omer over 3175m on 31 May. Has shown improvement and could earn some minor money

    Summary: A tricky contest in which KOMAN (15) is worth another chance after his recent disqualification. His previous form suggests he remains capable of landing a race of this nature. KIDAM DU METZ (13) is not the easiest to trust, but his penultimate course victory showed what he is capable of when everything falls into place. KIMIKO DU DOUBS (14) appears to be heading in the right direction and rates another serious contender. KEPHORA (10) is interesting reunited with Pierre-Yves Verva.

    Summary: MONEY DI MALAVITA (5) has endured little luck in recent starts and will be looking to make amends. MAITRE DU CHENE (1), unbeaten in two appearances at this venue, rates a serious threat. MEDELLIN ELLIS (11) is an intriguing contender with the benefit of racing barefoot all round for the first time. MISTERIOSO (3) is also entitled to plenty of respect judged on his penultimate victory over this course and could prove a danger if reproducing that level of form.
