R1 VINCENNES [L-H]

C1 – PRIX RAYMOND FOUARD – 2175m (a1m1/4) – Gr3 – Harness – EUR € 80,000

  1. MYSTERY QUEEN – Remains at the top of her game and was runner-up in a Group 2 at this course over 2700m on 6 June. Can get involved with the finish once again
  2. MISTRAL DU GOUTIER – Finished fourth in a Group 3 at this track over 2700m on 22 May. Does seem at very best over further than this distance and others make more appeal
  3. MAGICO DE LOU – Finished 7th in a Group 3 at this track over 2700m on 22 May. Did win a Group 3 at the beginning of the year but has only been modest since and others are preferred
  4. MAKE YOUR DAY – Unreliable this year and finished 8th in a Group 2 at this track over 2700m on 6 June. Remains barefoot but needs to do more to beat these these rivals
  5. MY PRINCESS – Returned to form and was fourth in a Group 2 at this course over 2700m on 6 June. Remains barefoot and might earn some minor money
  6. MONZON NORMAND – Has only been fair of late and finished fifth in a Group 2 at this course over 2700m on 6 June. Might need to do a bit more to score this around
  7. MIDWAY LADY – Not as reliable as most of her rivals but was third in a Group 2 at this track over 2700m on 6 June. Capable of playing a minor role
  8. MAGNUM DU CHOQUEL – Disqualified in a Group 2 at this track over 2700m on 6 June. Remains barefoot and is capable of contesting the finish when staying in stride
  9. MENTOR DE PLAY – Extremely consistent this year and was runner-up in a Group 2 at this track over 2700m on 6 June. Should fight out the finish once again
  10. MAGIC MAN – Successful in a pair of Group 2s of late, the latest at this course over 2700m on 6 June. Drops in distance but is the one to beat
  11. MAESTRO VRIE – Disqualified twice in a row, the latest in a Group 2 at this track over 2700m on 6 June. Is a recent Group 1 winner so is a real threat if smart
    Summary: Unbeaten when racing in this shoeing configuration, MAGIC MAN (10) is taken to maintain that record and can confirm the form with MENTOR DE PLAY (9), whom he has already accounted for. The talented MAESTRO VRIE (11) has the ability to match the principals, provided he remains focused throughout. Better than his latest effort, MAGNUM DU CHOQUEL (8) is worth another chance and could easily bounce back into contention.

  12. HALL BLACK MESS – Has struggled of late and was unplaced in a Group 3 at Laval over 2850m on 3 June. Has a good record with Eric Raffin and could be a lively danger
  13. HAUTBRION COLMI – Showed some improvement when fourth in a class C at Toulouse over 2150m on 15 May. Distance suited and could earn some more money
  14. HUGO OCCAGNES – Off form and finished 13th in a class A at Erbray over 3200m on 14 June. Battling to regain best form and others make more appeal
  15. GAMIN DES ISLES – Very consistent last year and was third in a class D at Royan La Palmyre over 2475m on 10 August. Remains barefoot and could earn some more money if fit enough
  16. GENERAL DU NORD – Has struggled of late and was unplaced in a class A at Erbray over 3200m on 14 June. Drops in distance but needs major improvement to score
  17. I STILL LOVING YOU – Has been at his best this year and was third in a class C at this track over 2700m on 29 May. Has claims if staying smart
  18. IPALIO – Only modest of late and finished tenth in a class C at Enghien over 2875m on 13 June. Remains barefoot but is battling to regain best form
  19. HERMES LUDOIS – Did not show his best when 7th in a class A at Erbray over 3200m on 14 June. Remains barefoot and could earn some money

  21. GEDEON DAIRPET – Disqualified in a class D at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat over 2550m on 16 December. Returns from a break and should need this run
  22. FILOU SMILING – Has really struggled of late and was unplaced in a class A at Eauze over 3000m on 7 June. Needs to do a lot more to beat these rivals
  23. IDOLE D’OURVILLE – Disqualified twice in a row, the latest in a class D at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2150m on 8 March. Returns from a break and could need this run
  24. IF I TELL YOU – Does best when barefoot and was runner-up in a class C at Enghien over 2875m on 13 June. Remains barefoot and has a place chance in this line-up
  25. HAPPY FACE – Unreliable and finished 6th in a class C at Enghien over 2875m on 13 June. Remains barefoot and might play a minor role at very best
  26. HORIZON D’EYMY – Not reliable and was fifth at Waregem over 3500m on 9 June. Has disqualification issues and needs to find a few lengths to score
  27. IDOLE JALLERIE – Returned from a couple of disqualifications with a victory in a class D over this course and distance on 5 June. Remains barefoot and should contest the finish
  28. GRAZIELA D’EL – Showed some improvement when fifth in a class E at Jallais over 2975m on 14 June. Has won over this track and trip and is not out of it
  29. HEUREUX DE FLEUR – Remains in goosd shape and was third in a class D at this track over 2850m on 5 June. Did win over this track and trip earlier this year and can score again
    Summary: The outcome of this contest could hinge on the behaviour of I STILL LOVING YOU (6), whose ability is not in question but whose chances will depend largely on maintaining his discipline throughout. HEUREUX DE FLEUR (18) also appeals despite a difficult draw on the outside of the front line. IDOLE JALLERIE (16) faces a similar obstacle from an equally unfavourable starting position. HALL BLACK MESS (1) is worth noting with Eric Raffin back aboard and should benefit from a much more favourable draw.

  33. IRON DU GERS – Unreliable and finished 6th in a class B at Enghien over 2150m on 23 May. Likes this course and is capable of an upset on best form
  34. COLBERT WF – Unreliable and finished 7th in a class A at Enghien over 2150m on 13 June. Needs to find a few lengths to beat these rivals
  35. IMPERATOR D’ELA – Disqualified at Solvalla over 3140m on 30 May. Remains barefoot but is battling to find best form and others make more appeal

  39. ISOFOU DU CHENE – Fluffed his lines with a disqualification in a Group 3 at Laval over 2850m on 3 June. Unlucky that day and could make amends
  40. JAZZMAN DEBAILLEUL – Showed some improvement when barefoot and runner-up in a class B over this course and distance on 6 June. Not fully barefoot this time but is not out of it
  41. HANNIBAL TUILERIE – Not reliable and fnished fifth in a Group 3 over this course and distance on 22 May. Could be the surprise package of the race
  42. JABALPUR – Not reliable but was fifth at Solvalla over 1609m on 31 May. Better over a short distance but cannot be ruled out
    Summary: Back at a venue where he has enjoyed plenty of success in the past, ISOFOU DU CHENE (10) is expected to leave his latest performance behind and make a bold bid for victory. He will not have things all his own way, however, with JALENDRA DE MALAC (3) likely to pose a significant threat now racing barefoot. HOMARD LAND (7) is entitled to come on for his recent comeback outing at Granville and should be much sharper here. JAZZMAN DEBAILLEUL (11) appears to have returned to something approaching his best form and warrants considerable respect too.

  48. NAUTILIO BELLO – Very unreliable and finished 9th in a Group 3 harness over this course and distance on 5 June. Was a winner the last time seen in a mounted race but this is a tougher task

  50. NEO VANILLA – Very consistent this year and finished third in a Group 2 Mounted race at this track over 2175m on 11 April. Might earn some minor money

  52. NIKKI BEACH JISCE – Kept to harness races so far and is unbeaten this year, the latest in a Group 3 over this track and trip on 5 June. Can score again
  53. NIKITA DES CHARMES – Disqualified four times in a row, the latest in a Group 2 harness race at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Capable of scoring when staying in stride
  54. NYMPHE D’ELLE – Not reliable and finished 9th in a Group 2 harness at this course over 2175m on 26 May. Needs to find a few lengths to score

  56. NASSANDRA – Has only lost once so far and that was when disqualified in a Group 2 harness race at this course over 2175m on 26 May. Has won under the saddle and must be respected in this line-up
  57. NICKEL DE BAILLE – Not at all disgraced when fifth in a Group 2 harness race at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Consistent in mounted races and should fight out the finish
  58. NINJA DE L’ENVOL – Has struggled a bit of late and finished 8th in a Group 2 harness race at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Better under the saddle and should be a real threat
    Summary: Undefeated when racing barefoot under harness, NIKKI BEACH JISCE (10) arrives on the back of a commanding success and could be hard to beat if transferring that level of ability to the mounted discipline on debut under the saddle. NINJA DE L’ENVOL (16) and NICKEL DE BAILLE (15) re-oppose here and should again be closely matched. NASSANDRA (14) brings proven Group 2-winning form in this code following her success in the Prix Hémine and is a major contender if reproducing that effort.

  63. NOELA JOSSELYN – Not disgraced when fifth in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Better this distance and might play a minor role

  65. NELSON EMGE – Did not show his best when 6th in a Group 2 at this course over 2175m on 26 May. Has run well at this level before and could earn some money
  66. NORMA JEANE – Has some fair form and finished fourth in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Might need to do a bit more to beat these rivals
  67. NUEVO CASH – Disqualified three times in a row, the latest in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Not easy to trust but can earn some money when smart
  68. NEO DE JOUDES – Five wins in just six starts and was runner-up in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Clearlyb not out of it
  69. NOB HILL – Returning to best and was fourth in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Capable of scoring this distance
  70. NAT KING COLE – A winner of a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Better that shorter distance but can get involved with the finish
  71. NAYARA – Successful in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Clearly unreliable but cannot be ruled out from doubling up
  72. NORMANDIE NIEMEN – Very consistent and was runner-up in a Group 2 at this course over 2175m on 26 May. Should be right there at the finish once again
  73. NOCIVE DU CHOQUEL – Remains in very good form and was third in a Group 2 at this track over 2175m on 26 May. Did win a Group 1 over this track and trip in february and is a serious threat
    Summary: A tightly-knit contest where several profiles appeal, with NOB HILL (11) arriving off the back of a pleasing late finish effort and likely to be suited if the pace is selective. NORMANDIE NIEMEN (14) is better judged on her penultimate performance over this course, which was highly convincing, and she clearly remains of major interest. NOCIVE DU CHOQUEL (15) continues to run with consistency and reliability and again looks set to be involved at the business end.
    NEO DE JOUDES (10) saw his unbeaten record come to an end last time out against NAT KING COLE (12) but remains a sound contender in this class of event.

  76. LEMON FLEURY – Returned from a break in good form and was runner-up in a Group 2 mounted at this track over 2700m on 29 May. Reverts to barefoot and should make a bold bid at victory
  77. LUCKY SIBEY – Disqualified in 7 of last 8 starts, including in a class B harness race at Agen-le-Passage over 2625m on 30 May. Hard to trust and others make more appeal
  78. LYZIA DES AGETS – Not reliable but was fourth in a Group 2 mounted race at this track over 2700m on 29 May. Remains barefoot but may need to do more to beat these rivals

  86. LISBONNE DRY – Not reliable but was third in a Group 2 mounted race at this course over 2700m on 29 May. Remains barefoot and could earn some money
  87. LIONHEART – Kept to harness races of late and finished 7th in a class A at Vichy over 3625m on 1 June. Reverts to barefoot and will be a threat back under the saddle
    Summary: A compelling rematch is on the cards between LEMON FLEURY (3) and LIBERTE DU GOUTIER (12), who finished ahead of him on 29 May. The former is expected to have come on significantly for that run and could well reverse the form under more favourable circumstances this Sunday. The highly consistent LIONHEART (14) has been carefully targeted for this big race and looks another major contender. LASKA DU LEVANT (2) brings recent winning form at a slightly lower level and looks an interesting prospect despite the rise in grade.

  99. IDAO DE TILLARD – Unplaced in a Group 1 at Solvalla over 1609m on 31 May. Remains barefoot and is a multiple Group 1 winner. Can score again
    Summary: This revamped Prix René Ballière looks set to revolve around IDAO DE TILLARD (12), who is worth another chance after his flop in Sweden and is particularly interesting with the four shoes removed once again for only the fifth time in his career. His main danger could be IBIKI DE HOUELLE (8), who was an impressive Group 2 winner last time at this track. HOOKER BERRY (11) commands respect with Jean-Michel Bazire back in the sulky. KEEP GOING (5) is capable of playing a major role if running up to the standard of his penultimate effort.

  112. METEORE DE SIMM – Disqualified twice in last three starts, the latest in a Group 2 mounted at this track over 2700m on 29 May. Tries barefoot and can be a challenger for top honours on best form
    Summary: Winner of the Prix de Vincennes (Gr.1) on his debut under the saddle last winter, MOUSTIK LA GOVELLE (9) was unlucky not to score in a harness race last time out. He sets a strong standard and could well wrap up a second Group 1 victory. MUNHOA VEDAQUAISE (11) comes in the race on the back of a decisive success and looks to be progressing at the right time. METEORE DE SIMM (13) could prove a danger if reproducing his best form. The unexposed MOJITO FRAISE (6) also enters calculations, especially racing barefoot for the first time, which could unlock further improvement.

    Summary: Winner of five of his last six starts, KATCHI QUICK (14) is equally effective over sprint trips and staying distances and can record another success on his first attempt at Group 3 level. The main dangers are headed by LORD DELO (13), a sound winner of his last start who also boasts a good record when pairing up with Jean-Michel Bazire. LUNELLA LEMAN (11) adds further depth to the contest, having taken the Prix Henri Levesque in convincing fashion against some of the best fillies of her generation. LOUIS VITTON MIJO (3) arrives on the back of a solid third in the Group 2 Prix Jean Le Gonidec. LITTLE BROWN (15) is an interesting contender racing barefoot for the first time.

  1. BOKEI – Finished third over 2400m at Dieppe on debut in Conditional Unraced on 6 June. He would have come on from the run and should make the natural improvement

VICTORIA COLONIA (7) was unlucky at Evreux last time. She is a filly with plenty of scope and should pose a threat. IL MAGISTERO (8) notched up his first-career victory at Cluny on 22 May. He carries a handy galloping weight and cannot be discounted. MARASI DRIVE (5) finished third on this course in his penultimate outing. He should be involved at the finish.

    Summary: Supplemented GRAY D’ALBION comes into this race fresh off a victory and he is well-entered off a competitive mark where he can continue his winning trend here. CHARM WRENS (3) was just behind the top choice in their last start and as she renews her rivalry with him, she is capable of making a big splash if she puts her best foot forward. EL PROFESSOR CHOP (7) can be forgiven for his last start and can furnish up on his last attempt in this smaller field. MAMINOA (5) comes into this race with a strong place chance.

    Summary: ATLANTIC WAYS (1) was just unlucky when beaten for second and she looks to seek vengeance this time around. She must be given a solid winning chance this time around. NOBLE AMBER (2) is a well experienced filly being a nine-time winner and it would be no surprise if experience prevails here.

    Summary: MADAME ROYALE (3) delivered a respectable fourth last time out and now steps back to the 2400m where she could be suited too in the early parts of her career. In this field, she may begin her career winning campaign. LUCKY PRINCE (1) is never far off the action and finds himself in the mix.

He is impeccably bred, and his dam was successful at both Group 2 and Group 1 PA level. He is given the vote ahead of NOTABLE DE L’AIGLE (7), who represents a stable renowned for having its newcomers well prepared. NEIRAN DU SOLEIL (6) is another who catches the eye on pedigree and is worth monitoring closely in the betting market. DURGHAM (2) has a nice profile and is one to consider if the betting speaks volumes.
    SELECTIONS
    DAWWAAS (8) – NOTABLE DE L’AIGLE (7) – NEIRAN DU SOLEIL (6) – DURGHAM (2)
    C6 – PRIX FAURIE AUDI MONT-DE-MARSAN (PRIX ICI GASCOGNE) – 1600m (a1m) – TURF – Maiden – Flat – EUR € 11,900
  53. NOARDS – Finished 4th at Dax over 2100m in a conditions race on May 18th on his last start. One to pay attention to
  54. DON NICOLAS – Several unplaced runs of late, 9th at Toulouse on June 8th over 1400m in a Class 4 race last time out. Look elsewhere
  55. SEVEN FOR ALL – Has shown signs of talent although his form figures are not sparkling, each way contender and is better than his latest start over 1600m in a Cass 3 handicap on April 27th at Bordeaux Le Bouscat
  56. YACHT SHOW – He has been placed on his last three runs, the latest when 3rd at Dax over 2100m in a conditions race on May 18th. Can get off the mark this time
  57. YEYE – Showed talent to be 5th on her debut at Madrid (ESP) over 1400m on May 1st. Ought to be in the shake-up
  58. JOSTFAN – Unplaced last time, 4th before that over 1400m at Limoges on May 17th in a Class 4 race. Hard to be enthusiastic about
  59. DA TEMPO DEA – Finished 4th last time in a Class 4 race over 2400m at La-Roche-Posay on June 6th. Has placed form but lacks consistency
  60. STAR MES – Newcomer by Devastar, the dam won 7 races over jumps. One that will improve for this debut run unless the betting says otherwise
    Summary: YACHT SHOW (4) has produced several placed efforts and holds strong claims of shedding his maiden tag at this attempt. He is taken to come out on top ahead of NOARDS (1), who is battle-hardened and was just over three lengths behind the selection when finishing fourth in the same race at Dax in mid-May. YEYE (5) is entitled to improve on her debut effort at Madrid early last month and warrants consideration. SEVEN FOR ALL (3) appears best of the remainder.

  61. VIOLET LEDUC – Three placed runs from only four runs, 4th on the latest over 1600m at La Teste on June 11th in a maiden race. Can get off the mark
  62. PROLIXE – Unplaced last time over 1200m at this track in a maiden race on March 23rd. Looks exposed and others rate higher
  63. CIAO NENE – Two 3rd placed efforts of late, the latter over 1600m at La Teste in a maiden race on June 11th. Ought to be in the shake-up
  64. MANGAS – Has failed to feature in five runs, in the rear division over 1600m at Saint-Cloud in a handicap on June 2nd last time. Hard to be enthusiastic about
  65. MARIYAM – Unplaced last time, 4th before that over 1200m at Durtal on March 22nd in a maiden race. Warrants respect
  66. SALAMANQUE – She has been placed on her last two runs, 4th on the latter over 1800m at Nort-Sur-Erdre on May 25th in a maiden race. Likely to find this challenging
  67. RUBENESQUE – Nice performance to be 2nd in a handicap at Compiegne on May 25th last time out over 1400m. One to pay attention to
    Summary: VIOLET LEDUC (1) has been in good form, finishing in the placings on three of his four starts to date. He looks well placed to shed his maiden tag and is preferred to CIAO NENE (3), who has been supplemented for this race after recording two consecutive third-place finishes, most recently when narrowly ahead of the selection. RUBENESQUE (7) also commands respect after a strong runner-up effort in a handicap at Compiègne in late May. MARIYAM (5) completes the shortlist.
