R1 VINCENNES [L-H]

C1 – PRIX D’AIGUEPERSE – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class A Race – Harness – EUR € 51,000

  1. MARQUETY DE BAILLY – 4th of 9 to MARDOUK DE GODREL (9) in a Class A over course and distance 2 weeks ago. Is a colt of considerable potential and should not be underestimated
  2. MIRATISSIME – Encouraged under these conditions last month before being sanctioned in a Gr.2, also over track and trip, on 25 January. On this occasion also looks out of her depth
  3. MAGICO DE LOU – Sanctioned in a 2175m Gr.3 here 3 weeks ago. Is not entirely without merit but in this company will have too much to do
  4. MOSAIC LIFE – 4th of 10 in a Class A over track and trip 2 weeks ago. Unlikely to lose her maiden status but could still get a look-in
  5. MISTRAL DU GOUTIER – Reassuring 3rd of 9 to MARDOUK DE GODREL (9) in a Class A over course and distance 2 weeks ago. Sometimes bites off more than he can chew but is in his category and must be afforded respect
  6. MEMPHIS DE BRASSE – Drops to a more reasonable level after finishing last but one, a place behind MISTRAL DU GOUTIER (5), in Gr.2 Prix Paul Viel over track and trip a month ago. Is proven at this level and although unlikely to impose, can still make first 5
  7. MANASLU – Quality colt making first start since running 2nd of 13 in a 2850m Class A here on Christmas Eve. Has never finished out of first 2 and is not about to disappoint
  8. MONEGASQUE – Pulled-up after faulting early in Gr.1 Prix Comte Pierre de Montesson here last weekend. Has placed under these conditions at Gr.2 level and can make amends if Mathieu Mottier keeps her focused
  9. MARDOUK DE GODREL – Facile winner of a Class A over course and distance 2 weeks ago. Plainly a colt for the future and the hat-trick is not beyond his reach
  10. MAKE A DREAM – Sanctioned in Gr.2 Prix Paul Viel before running 4th of 5 finishers in a 2175m Gr.3 here 3 weeks ago. Won on lone association with Eric Raffin and, considering the entry, can confirm
    Summary: Already a course-and-distance winner this year, MAKE A DREAM (10) is reunited with Eric Raffin after freshening up in Gr.3 Prix Léopold Verroken 3 weeks ago, and has every chance of bagging his biggest race to date. That being said, MARDOUK DE GODREL (9) made short work of the opposition here recently and Emmanuel Allard can be confident of another big run. MANASLU (7) has not been seen out for 2 months but is a classy colt with a bright future and makes his main-track debut with a good hand to play.
    SELECTIONS
    MAKE A DREAM (10) – MARDOUK DE GODREL (9) – MANASLU (7) – MISTRAL DU GOUTIER (5)
    C2 – PRIX RMC (PRIX DE LARRE) – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class D Race – Harness – EUR € 46,000
  11. JAZZ PASSION – Back under harness after running 4th of 10 in a 3150m Saint-Brieuc monte Class F 3 weeks ago and will have nothing to contribute
  12. VALLATONIAN – Was not out of the money when sanctioned in a 2850m Class C here on 30 January. Matthieu Abrivard gets the nod this time and could pleasantly surprise if he keeps him trotting
  13. STRIKING EAGLE – Unraced since coming 5th of 15, a place behind HUMANITY PELLINI (14), in valuable Sylvesterloppet over 2640m at Axevalla on New Year’s Eve. Has never disappointed when unshod-behind but others still preferred
  14. JORLANDO – Failed to complete the hat-trick when denied a run in a 2050m Agen Class E a fortnight back, coming 9th of 13. Won barefoot here early-January and Alexandre Abrivard will be eager to set the record straight. Chance
  15. JOLICOEUR – Won Class E over course and distance a fortnight before coming 5th of 12 behind HASHTAG SIMONI (8) in a 2850m Class C here on 30 January. Has nothing to prove at this level and must be considered a player
  16. DOMINGO BAR – Has had time to recalibrate after running 7th of 15 behind DEMETRIO (7) in a 2850m Class D over inner course on 20 January. Races barefoot for just 2nd time and with application will be no easy touch
  17. DEMETRIO – Placed over inner track 10 days before finishing last but one behind HASHTAG SIMONI (8) in a 2850m Class C here on 30 January. Must not be hastily-judged though and should not be written off
  18. HASHTAG SIMONI – Reassuring 3rd of 12 in a 2850m Class C here 3.5 weeks ago. Drops in category and can win this time, provided Paul Ploquin keeps him out of trouble
  19. JASMIN D’AVE – Disappointing since turn of the year, latterly 16th of 17 in a 2850m Mauquenchy Class E late last month, and must get his house in order
  20. JAG HAUFOR – Unremarkable 8th of 16 behind JACKSON BOY (13) in a 2100m Class D here a fortnight back and will need to raise his game
  21. GLOBAL DUTY – Has not been seen out since finishing 7th of 8 over 2140m at Aby in early-December. Races barefoot for re-entry though, with David Thomain reining, but still not a concern
  22. JARDIN D’ERABLE – Unthreatening 12th of 16 behind JACKSON BOY (13) in a 2100m Class D here a fortnight back and is not about to shake things up
  23. JACKSON BOY – 5th of 16 in a 2100m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Raced better that day than the result would suggest and, barefoot again, can open his 2025 account
  24. HUMANITY PELLINI – Serious Scandi raider making Vincennes debut after running 4th of 15 in valuable Sylvesterloppet over 2640m at Axevalla on New Year’s Eve. Has a lot going for him here and can make a big splash
    Summary: Nicely-entered close to the limit of earnings, JACKSON BOY (13) put in an excellent final effort here earlier this month; he will have progressed for the race, and should have the wherewithal to hold off HASHTAG SIMONI (8) who put on a good show here late-January despite a poor trip, and JORLANDO (4) who found himself without a path at Agen. HUMANITY PELLINI (14) races barefoot, with the champion driver in the bike, and will be no pushover if he takes to Vincennes conditions.
    SELECTIONS
    JACKSON BOY (13) – HASHTAG SIMONI (8) – JORLANDO (4) – HUMANITY PELLINI (14)
    C3 – PRIX JACQUES MOREAU – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class E Race – Harness – EUR € 35,000
  25. EBRIUS (ITY) – Takes a big jump in category after winning over 2060m at Foggia on 6 February. Has never delivered when barefoot and is unlikely to start now
  26. RED D’OVER – 6th of 15 behind EL DORADO BAR (13) in a Class E over course and distance late last month. Encountered traffic problems that day but is barefoot this time and Pierre-Yves Verva will be keen to put things right. First 5
  27. ESPADA (ITY) – Looked ordinary when 10th of 15 behind EL DORADO BAR (13) in a Class E over course and distance on 28 January. Front shoes off this time and, if focused, can get back in the game
  28. MAN OF STEEL (GER) – Last of 6, on return to competition, over 2600m at Wolvega 9 days ago. Untried at the venue but races unshod behind, with Eric Raffin in the bike, and must not be overlooked
  29. ERES DORIAL MAIL – Sports a new configuration after running 7th of 15 behind EL DORADO BAR (13) in a Class E over course and distance late last month. More expected of him that day but is thoroughly capable of finishing closer this time
  30. KARAMEL JOYEUX – Back to preferred formula after coming an unexceptional 6th of 10 finishers in a 2850m Laval Class E last weekend, but still has too much to do
  31. KER DE TOUES – Returns to 2700m after running 3rd of 13 in a 2100m Class E here 2.5 weeks ago, but a repeat seems most improbable
  32. ELON MAIL – Ran 2nd of 14 to EGUADOR (9) in a Class E over track and trip on 11 February. Was not the luckiest that day but can exact revenge if Matthieu Abrivard keeps him out of trouble
  33. EGUADOR – Achieved objective No.1 of 2025 when comfortably winning a 2700m Class E over course and distance 12 days ago. Faces marginally tougher test this time but still represents a leading contender
  34. EMPIRE AS – 5th of 15 behind EL DORADO BAR (13) in a Class E over course and distance on 28 January. Nicolas Bazire reining this time and others easier to back
  35. ECTOR ZL – Won 2 in a row before being sanctioned over a mile at San Siro on 19 January. Barefoot for the occasion, with Mathieu Mottier at the helm, but still no more than a minor place chance
  36. KEN DU POMMEREUX – 10th of 11 in a 2100m claimer here mid-January. Shoes on and will have nothing to offer
  37. EL DORADO BAR – 3rd of 15 in a Class E over course and distance, on first start for new stable, on 28 January. Will have found his feet and can again finish close
  38. OIS TSCHIKAGO – Versatile sort that won over 2400m at Straubing on return to competition on 7 February. Is untried beyond that distance but runs here on his merits and can play a leading role
  39. EMIRO CLEMAR – Last of 14 in a 2850m Class B here on 7 February. Front shoes off this time but still looks out of his depth
  40. KAMIKAZE – Decent dual-discipline type, and barefoot for the occasion, but will need to show marked improvement on recent 9th of 13 behind KER DE TOUES (7) in a 2100m Class E here 2.5 weeks ago
    Summary: Comfortable winner of a similar event here recently, beating ELON MAIL (8) who was making his Vincennes bow that day, EGUADOR (9) has a decent chance of doubling up, but his compatriot is more competitively shod this time and can turn the tables. An excellent servant that made a triumphant re-entry at Straubing, OIS TSCHIKAGO (14) makes his French debut with a realistic chance of making it a successful one. EL DORADO BAR (13) left a good impression here late last month and will have progressed for the run.
    SELECTIONS
    ELON MAIL (8) – EGUADOR (9) – OIS TSCHIKAGO (14) – EL DORADO BAR (13)
    C4 – PRIX DE PARIS – AMERIQUE RACES – 4150m (a2m1/2) – Gr1 Race – Harness – EUR € 400,000
  41. IDOLE DE MEAT – 9th of 12 when preparing for this in a 2700m Class B here on 7 February. Goes barefoot this time but still has too much to do
  42. JIOSCO DE PHYT’S – 8th of 9 in a 2700m Gr.3 here on 19 January. Sports front pads this time and can be ruled out
  43. IROISE DE LA NOE – Won Prix de Belgique with authority before being sanctioned when going well in Prix d’Amerique late-January. Has been wisely-campaigned and can wrap this up if Thomas Levesque keeps her trotting
  44. HIP HOP HAUFOR – Last in Prix de Cornulier before repeating in Prix de France 2 weeks ago and can be confidently disregarded
  45. JUSTIN BOLD – Going well when sanctioned in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here a fortnight back. Untried over the day’s distance but is clearly in form and ignored at one’s peril. Attention
  46. GRACE DU DIGEON – Last but one finisher to JOUMBA DE GUEZ (10) in 2700m monté Gr.1 Prix de Cornulier here on 19 January and has no possible chance
  47. FAKIR DE MAHEY – Showed his limits when 13th of 16 finishers in Prix d’Amérique late last month and will struggle to make his presence felt
  48. IT’S A DOLLARMAKER – Makes first appearance since running 9th of 18 in Prix d’Amérique on 26 January. Thrives with Eric Raffin but no more than a minor place chance
  49. IDEAL LIGNERIES – Honourable but unthreatening 7th of 13 behind INMAROSA (12) in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here earlier this month but will appreciate this longer distance and will have his supporters
  50. JOUMBA DE GUEZ – Terrific winner of 2700m monté Gr.1 Prix de Cornulier here on 19 January. Boasts serious but less-exalted harness references, although in current form is easy to like for a spot in the mix
  51. JOSH POWER – Has not been seen out since running 4th of 18 in Prix d’Amérique on 26 January. Won Gr.1 Criterium des 5 Ans last time reined by his trainer and looks a serious proposition
  52. INMAROSA – Defied her 21/1 odds when 2nd of 13 in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here earlier this month. Pleased on lone appearance under these conditions and has a realistic chance of finishing in the thick of things
  53. HUSSARD DU LANDRET – Ran 5th in Prix d’Amérique before faulting in Prix de France a fortnight ago. Back under conditions he appreciates, is barefoot as he was in 2024, and has a realistic chance of pulling off the double
  54. AMPIA MEDE SM – Respectable 6th of 13 in 2100m Gr.1 Prix de France here 2 weeks ago. Won this race in 2023 but has not been particularly sharp this winter and has a lot more to find
    Summary: Still fresh aged 7, IROISE DE LA NOE (3) was outstanding in the Belgique before getting on the wrong side of Lady Luck in the Prix d’Amérique; she is as tenacious as they come though, will not be bothered by the trip, and can secure the first Gr.1 of her career. She will however be up against last year’s chrono-breaking winner HUSSARD DU LANDRET (13) who can repeat if focused, and classic-winning JOSH POWER (11) who finished a place ahead of him in the Amerique. Runner-up in 2024 and recently re-energised in the Prix de France, INMAROSA (12) must be taken seriously.
    SELECTIONS
    IROISE DE LA NOE (3) – HUSSARD DU LANDRET (13) – JOSH POWER (11) – INMAROSA (12)
    C5 – PRIX CITIZEN KID (PRIX D’EPINAY) – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class B Race – Harness – EUR € 52,000
  55. LUNA HAUFOR – Missed out on the hat-trick when runner-up to LIBERTE DE CHOISEL (2) in a 2850m Class D late-January. Unlikely to turn the tables but can still make the frame
  56. LIBERTE DE CHOISEL – Superb winner of a 2850m Class D on Vincennes debut late-January. Has tasted defeat just the once and Anthony Barrier will be eager to keep it that way
  57. LUCIOLE DU VERTAIN – 8th of 9 in a 2175m Class B here on 11 January. Has had time to recuperate but still has too much to do
  58. LUNA D’ARNHEM – Got off the mark [at 17th time of asking] in a Class D over course and distance on 2 February but appears to be taking on too much this time
  59. LIBERTY JOSSELYN – Would have finished closer had 4th of 7 behind L’ETOILE D’URSIN (9) in a 2175m Class C here 12 days ago had she not hung in the final stages. Improbable winner but still a respectable first-5 chance
  60. LONG LEGEND – Honest filly that ran a respectable 5th of 7 behind L’ETOILE D’URSIN (9) in a 2175m Class C here 12 days ago. Entrusted to Eric Raffin for first time but looks no more than a minor place prospect
  61. LORENE D’AVEZE – Oddly below-par 6th of 7 behind L’ETOILE D’URSIN (9) in a 2175m Class C here 12 days ago. Barefoot this time however and JMB will be keen to put things right. Chance
  62. LADY QUEEN – Has not been seen out since finishing last of 9 in a Class A over course and distance last August. Shoes on and will need the race
  63. L’ETOILE D’URSIN – Pleasant 3rd of 8 in a 2175m Class C here 12 days ago when first-time barefoot. Shoes off again and can finish in the mix once more
  64. LINNA DE VANDEL – Got back in the winners’ enclosure after lifting a 2100m Class D here 2 weeks ago. Races first time barefoot and, given the entry, will be no soft touch
    Summary: There are numerous fillies in contention for what looks a very interesting affair, but it is hard to ignore how well LIBERTE DE CHOISEL (2) imposed here late last month. LUNA HAUFOR (1) ran a decent second to her that day and can again figure prominently, but may first have to see off the talented LORENE D’AVEZE (7) who is barefoot for the occasion.
    SELECTIONS
    LIBERTE DE CHOISEL (2) – LORENE D’AVEZE (7) – LUNA HAUFOR (1) – LINNA DE VANDEL (10)
    C6 – PRIX DE LA MAYENNE – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Gr3 Race – Harness – EUR € 90,000
  65. JAZZMAN (GER) – Fourth in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Not far behind EDGAR SABA (6) and can be involved in the finish
  66. JOLIE SURPRISE – A winner in a class B at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2925m on 17 January. Remains barefoot. Others are preferred in this line-up
  67. JAPPELOUP TURGOT – Finished 10th in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Others make more appeal
  68. CORAL COGER – Well beaten 10th in a Group 2 at this track over 2850m on 11 January. Remains barefoot. Needs to find a few lengths
  69. JAMIN DE BRION – Unplaced in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Needs to improve to feature
  70. EDGAR SABA – Third in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. A very consistent trotter and has every chance again of being involved with the finish
  71. YAHOO DIAMANT – A winner in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Has been in very good form of late and could double up
  72. SCHAMPUS – A winner in a class D at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2925m on 9 January. Reverts to barefoot. Debut winner on our soil and can be competitive
  73. IMMORTAL DOC – Fifth in a Group 1 at this track over 2700m on 25 January. A good latest effort and should be competitive in this line-up
  74. JINGLE DU PONT – Finished 7th in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Reverts to barefoot. Can improve on the latest and is not out of it
  75. DEA SPRINT BAR – A runner-up in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Remains barefoot. Eric Raffin will give every assistance from the sulky and will have supporters
  76. JASON – Third in a Group 3 at this track over 2850m on 9 February. Can play a minor role in the finish
  77. KANTO AVIS – A runner-up in a Group 2 at this track over 2700m on 9 February. Not reliable but does have the ability to go one better this time
    Summary: YAHOO DIAMANT (7) was impressive at this track earlier this month and Yoann Lebourgeois will give him every chance of scoring again. KANTO AVIS (13) is not as reliable as the selection but did well at this track earlier this month and would not be a surprise winner. IMMORTAL DOC (9) was not far off them in a Group 1 last time out and demands respect. EDGAR SABA (6) is usually very competitive and also has a winning chance.

    C7 – PRIX VIVIER DE MONTFORT – 2700m (a1m1/2) – Class A Race – Mounted – EUR € 90,000
  78. EOLIEN DE CHENU – Finished 10th in a Harness class B at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2925m on 24 August. Remains barefoot. Needs to find a few lengths to win
  79. GADGET DU GADE – Disqualified in a class B at this track over 2850m on 8 February. If wise can be involved in the finish
  80. IMPALA DE VAL – Disqualified in a Group 2 at this track over 2850m on 26 January. Remains barefoot. A penultimate start winner on this track and deserves to be respected
  81. HEURISTIQUE – A winner in a Group 2 at this track over 2850m on 26 January. Remains barefoot. Has won three of the last five on this track and has every chance again
  82. GUINESS D’HERFRAIE – Disqualified in a class B at this track over 2850m on 8 February. Must be wise to have a say
  83. HOMER DE FROMENTEL – Finished 7th in a class B at this track over 2850m on 8 February. Remains barefoot. Others are preferred in this line-up
  84. GALA D’URFIST – Third in a class B at this track over 2850m on 8 February. Can play a role in the finish if in the right mood
  85. GO OR NOT – A runner-up in a Group 2 at this track over 2850m on 26 January. Remains barefoot. In good form and can fight out the finish
  86. INSHORE – Finished 10th in a Harness class A at this track over 2100m on 8 February. Returns to under the saddle and has solid claims at the win
    Summary: INSHORE (9) is clearly more at home under the saddle so the recent harness races are forgiven. He should make a bold attempt at beating these rivals. HEURISTIQUE (4) always gives of her best and will not go down without a challenge for top honours. GO OR NOT (8) has been very good of late and has a winning chance. IMPALA DE VAL (3) fluffed his lines with a disqualification last time out but did win his penultimate start and can also shine in this line-up.

  89. HASARD D’ERABLE – Finished 6th in a class C at this track over 2700m on 18 January. Capable of playing a role in the finish
  90. HOLLYWOOD DU BOIS – Fifth in a class C at this track over 2700m on 18 January. Matthieu Abrivard will give every assistance from the sulky and is not out of it
  91. EMOI SPECIAL – Unplaced in a class A at this track over 2100m on 8 February. Reverts to barefoot. Others are preferred
  92. ZIGULI DEI GREPPI – Well beaten 8th in a Group 3 at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2925m on 29 January. Others make more appeal

  94. CHARMY CHARLY AS – Finished 6th in a Group 3 at this track over 2100m on 26 January. Remains barefoot and should be competitive in this line-up
  95. TOTO BAROSSO – Finished 6th in a class B at this track over 2700m on 14 February. Remains barefoot. Seldom far off them and can make the frame

  97. L.A.BOKO – A runner-up in a class D at this track over 2700m on 16 February. Track-suited but facing stronger

  100. HISA DU MARGAS – Unplaced in a class C at this track over 2700m on 27 December. Needs to improve to get involved with the finish
  101. GYS – Fourth in a class C at Cagnes-sur-Mer over 2700m on 17 January. Remains barefoot. Starting in the second row bit is track-suited and has sufficient means to make the frame
    Summary: ISOFOU DU CHENE (2) continues to be in very good form and started the year with a solid win. He can complete a fine hat-trick. GREAT TIGRESS (7) is not as reliable but she has won two of her last four starts and Eric Raffin will be right there at the finish. CHARMY CHARLY AS (8) may need to do a bit more to beat the two selections ahead of her but can also get involved with the finish. GYS (15) likes this track and can make the frame.

  102. LE RETOUR VRIE – Disqualified in a class D at this track over 2100m on 12 February. Disqualified in the last three and is best watched for now
  103. LAST DES BROUSSES – Disqualified in a class D at this track over 2700m on 18 February. When wise is competitive and is not out of it
  104. LE BOLIDE – Third in a class C at Caen over 2450m on 12 October. Others are preferred in this line-up

  106. LYNX DU CHATELET – Disqualified in a class B at this track over 2175m on 4 June. Capable of better but others make much more appeal
  107. LARABELLO DE LOU – Disqualified in a class D at this track over 2700m on 16 February. Tries barefoot but does need improvement wo win
  108. LOULOU DAB – Has solid form and was fourth in a class D at this track over 2700m on 1 February. Holding form and was a penultimate start winner on this track. Go close to winning
  109. LEBARON D’OURVILLE – A winner in a class E at this track over 2100m on 30 January. Remains barefoot and is looking for a hat-trick. Be right there at the finish
  110. L’AVIS DU CHAILLOU – A winner in a class E at this track over 2200m on 14 February. Tries barefoot. Might play a minor role in the finish
  111. LOULOU DE L’AUNAY – A winner in a class E at Nantes over 3000m on 26 January. Remains barefoot. Two good efforts this year and can be in the mix again
  112. LE CHEF – Disqualified at Mons over 2300m on 28 January. Must be wise and might still need another run to get to peak fitness
  113. LUCHADOR – A runner-up in a class D at this track over 2100m on 12 February. Unshod and has sufficient means to fight for victory
  114. LUCKY LOVE – Disqualified in a class D at this track over 2100m on 7 February. Must be wise to have a say
  115. LUMINEUX – Third in a class D at this track over 2700m on 1 February. Remains barefoot. A consistent sort who is seldom far off them and should be competitive again
  116. LORIGRE – Not disgraced when fifth in a class D at this track over 2100m on 7 February. He improved his second effort after a break and has solid claims. Good chance
    Summary: A very competitive lucky last race. LORIGRE (15) showed some improvement last time out and would not be a surprise winner of this race. LOULOU DAB (7) has solid claims as his recent form is good and this track and trip does suit. LEBARON D’OURVILLE (8) is hat-trick seeking and has every chance this longer distance. LUCHADOR (12) is unshod and is one of many more that can trouble the judge.

C1 – PRIX DU ROND BOILEAU – 1650m (a1m) – TURF – Class 4 Race – Flat – EUR € 9,500

  1. ALPHA SPIRIT – Nice 2nd over course and distance in a Class 4 race on February 1st. Seems well-suited to racing on turf
  2. TOOCOOLFORSCHOOL – 4th on her last start over track and trip in a Class 4 conditions race on February 1st. Needs a few to falter
  3. VIOU – Unplaced last time out, 3rd before that over 1500m at Deauville in a Class 3 race on December 27th. One to be with each-way
  4. PIERRE PREMIER – Nice win over 1650m in a Class 4 race at this track on February 1st on his last run. Player
  5. BABY GEORGE – Four unplaced runs this year, the latter over 2100m at Pornichet 10 days ago, 5th before that over track and trip on February 1st. Outside place chance
  6. KILFRUSH MEMORIES – Unplaced last time out, 4th before that at Saint-Cloud in a Class 3 handicap over 1400m on November 15th. He acts well on the turf and has a leading chance
  7. HYPNOTIZED – Four unplaced efforts since a 4th over 1600m at Le Mans on October 16th in a Class 4 handicap. Opposable
  8. KIM KARALA – Five unplaced runs of late, the latter over 1700m on the PSF in a Class 4 handicap on November 23rd. She is unreliable
    Summary: KILFRUSH MEMORIES (6) was a decent fourth on his penultimate start over 1400m at Saint-Cloud in mid-November and can get back in the winner’s enclosure. PIERRE PREMIER (4) is a threat and could be the one that makes the selection work hard for success. He will be in a good frame of mind after a win at this track earlier this month. VIOU (3) looks like the each-way option with the eight-horse lineup. ALPHA SPIRIT (1) can also have a say at the business end.

  9. KOOKAI BELLEVUE – 6th last time out, 3rd before that over 2900m at Durtal on November 10th on the flat. Outside place chance
  10. KABUKI A LA MOTTE – Three 2nd placed efforts over fences of late, the latter over 3850m in a Class 3 race on December 1st at Craon. Placed on the flat last year and is one to consider
  11. KINDER DU GOUET – Unplaced last time out, 4th before that over 3900m at Pau in a Class 3 chase on December 25th. Flat winner in 2023 over 2400m. Place contender
  12. LIBELLIA ANTIQUE – Ran well to be 4th at Durtal over 2300m on January 26th in a conditions race last time out. A winner on debut and can play a lead role
  13. LORRAINE DEGRISSAY – She won over 2400m at Granville on June 23rd, 2024 when last appearing. Others make more appeal after a lengthy absence
  14. KOUA – 4th on her latest run over 2300m at Durtal in a Class 4 race on January 26th. Might find a few of these too smart
  15. LAVIE ENROSE ATHON – Nice win over 2950m at this track on February 1st in a conditions race on debut. Can follow up
  16. L’UNE BRUNE – Unraced by Buck’s Boum, the dam ran a few times on the flat. Likely to need this run for experience. The betting can guide
    Summary: LAVIE ENROSE ATHON (7) won over track and trip earlier this month on her debut and has a leading chance of following up on that success. LIBELLIA ANTIQUE (4) will do her best to make life difficult for the selection. She has experience and solid form. KABUKI A LA MOTTE (2) has been plying his trade over fences of late, with three second-placed efforts. Back on the flat, he warrants respect. KINDER DU GOUET (3) is another to keep safe.

  18. MANSSOURIO – Nice 2nd last time over track and trip in a conditions race on February 1st. Can play a lead role
  19. SHIRBAWI – Placed on his last two runs, 3rd on the most recent over 2100m at Pornichet in a Class 4 handicap on January 28th. Steps up in trip and can make an impact
  20. SIETON – Unplaced on the one run so far over 2500m at Deauville in a maiden race on December 27th. One to pay attention too
  21. JENA BAIE – Good 2nd on her only start over 2300m at Durtal in a Class 4 race on January 26th. She can improve and be involved in the shake-up
  22. ISIDA DU PLESSIS – Three unplaced efforts since a 4th over 2850m at Loudeac in a Class 4 race on May 11th. Not the most reliable
  23. GOD SAVE THE QUEEN – Four unplaced runs of late, 3rd before that over 2150m at Landivisiau in a Class 4 race on October 13th. Can be on the premises
  24. SOUNAINA – Placed on all five runs so far, the latter over 3200m on the PSF in a Class 3 race on November 23rd,2022. She has placed form on the turf but will need this run after a long time away
  25. JUDELLE – 3rd on her latest outing over 2400m at Craon in a conditions race on September 4th. Others make more appeal
  26. JARVIS MAGIC JEYL – Unraced gelding by Zanzibari, the dam was placed over hurdles. Likely to improve for this run and is best watched in the betting exchanges for clues
  27. MICCOSUKEE – 4th on her latest run over track and trip in a Class 4 race on February 1st. Place contender
  28. VICTOIRE DE CADIX – Well beaten on the one run over 2500m at Deauville in a maiden on December 27th. Has to improve to make the frame
  29. DISCODJIM – Unraced gelding by Magneticjim, the dam won on the flat. His trainer will have this horse well-prepared for his debut. Any market moves should be noted
    Summary: SHIRBAWI (3) could appreciate the step up in distance and is a marginal choice in an open-looking maiden. He shaped well on his last two runs and looks like he will stay this far. MANSSOURIO (2) has recent form over course and distance earlier this month and looks like the main threat to the selection. JENA BAIE (5) is one for the each-way backers to take seriously. GOD SAVE THE QUEEN (7) is also worth a mention.

  31. MORAMBO – 8th on both of his runs so far, the latter over 2100m at Pornichet in a maiden on January 28th. Place chance
  32. KENCHAK – Two 5th placed runs of late, the latter over 1900m in a maiden at Deauville on December 28th. Capable of winning a race of this nature
  33. MOONJEZ – Two unplaced efforts so far, the most recent over 2100m at Pornichet on January 5th. Turf debut so hard to know what to expect
  34. ROMANISER – Two unplaced runs since a 3rd over 2000m at Durtal on December 15th in a maiden race. Can make the top three
  35. JO FRANCAIS – Unplaced on the last two runs, 2nd before that on his debut over 1900m at Bordeaux Le Bouscat on October 26th. He can play a lead role
  36. SUPERCLASS – Four unplaced runs of late, the latter over 1700m at Saint-Brieuc in a maiden on October 27th. Unlikely to be involved
  37. MARTIN’S DENUO – Unraced gelding by Born To Sea, the dam ran twice. Stable runners usually know what is required on debut. Monitor the betting for any support
  38. SARAMO – Unraced colt by Sottsass, the dam won one race and was Listed placed. From a top trainer who knows the time of day. Any market support should be informative
  39. ESCOUBLAC – Unraced gelding by Whitecliffsofdover, the dam won one race. Watch the betting for any support
    Summary: KENCHAK (3) has shown enough ability to take a race of this nature. He has been fifth on his last two runs, the latter over 1900m at Deauville in late December on the PSF. Back on turf and up in trip should be more suitable. JO FRANCAIS (6) seemed unsuited by the PSF at Pau last time and should also appreciate the return to race on grass. He ran with promise on debut last year when second. SARAMO (9) has a nice profile and is one to watch on debut, as is MARTIN’S DENUO (8).

  41. NEHIAT – 6th last time out, 4th before that over 2100m at Pornichet in a claimer on January 7th. She might need a personal best to be involved
  42. ZIARAH DE SAON – Two unplaced efforts so far, the most recent over 1900m at Chantilly in a maiden on December 7th. Needs considerable progress to make the frame
  43. STELLA – 7th on her second start over 2100m at Pornichet in a maiden race on January 5th. Unlikely to be a threat
  44. LA BOBRIDE – 8th on the one run over 2000m at Strasbourg on October 6th in a maiden race. Showed promise and can improve a good deal from that run
  45. ROYAL HEAD – Well beaten at Angers on her sole start over 2000m in a maiden race on November 18th. Hard to recommend

  48. MALACA – Unraced filly by Hunters Light, the dam won one race. She will improve for this debut run and is best watched in the betting for any support
  49. SOL MARIE – Unraced filly by Bande, the dam won three races. Stable runners warrant respect on debut. Any market interest should be noted
  50. EXPRESSIVE – Unraced filly by Martinborough, the dam ran twice. Likely to need this outing for experience and is best watched in the betting market

    Summary: AMAZORE (8) showed ability on her three runs so far, her debut on the turf was arguably her best when she was third at Le Mans last October. Back on the turf after two spins on the PSF, she is given the vote ahead of LA BOBRIDE (5) who showed promise on her sole start over 2000m at Strasbourg in early October. NEUF DE PAQUES (13) is one to look at in the betting market, she has a nice profile and could be smart. SOL MARIE (10) is another to consider on debut.

  56. LASCAR D’ESTRUVAL – Unraced by Muhtathir, the dam was placed over hurdles. From a respected stable that can ready a newcomer. This gelding should be watched in the betting for clues
  57. TEETON MILL – Two unplaced runs on the flat, the latter over 3100m at Pornichet on December 15th. Hurdle race debut and others seem better equipped
  58. ESKITME – 6th on his second run over hurdles at this track in a Class 4 race on February 1st. Has work to do
  59. SOISFRANC – Unraced gelding by Pour Moi, the dam won over hurdles. One to keep safe and any market interest should be noted

  62. LUEUR DU LARGE – Decent 3rd on her debut over 3500m at this track in a Class 4 hurdle on February 1st. She will be sharper for her latest run and can feature
  63. TROPHY GIRL – Unplaced over 3500m in a Class 4 hurdle at this track on February 1st on her debut over hurdles, with two unplaced runs on the flat before that. Opposable
  64. L’EQUIPE DE CHOC – Unraced filly by Doctor Dino, the dam never ran. She has a choice profile and is one to keep a close eye on in the betting market

  66. EUFRASIA – Fell two from home when starting to run on her one run over 3500m at this track on February 1st in a Class 4 race. She did show enough to suggest she could be on the premises with a clear round of jumping
    Summary: LUEUR DU LARGE (9) made a pleasing start to her career when she was third over track and trip earlier this month in a Class 4 hurdle. She will know what is required this time and can use the benefit of that run and edge this from LASCAR D’ESTRUVAL (3) who is making her debut. She will be well-schooled by her trainer and is one to watch in the betting. L’EQUIPE DE CHOC (11) has a nice pedigree and is worth a market check. FLORENTIN (1) makes up the shortlist.

  74. SAINT MARK – He won over 3800m in a Class 4 hurdle at Wissembourg on May 29th, 2023 when last seen. Faces a stiff task on his return to action after 21 months away from the track
  75. POLLEXFEN – 2nd on his latest run over 3900m at Auteuil on October 14th, 2023 in a handicap hurdle. Hard to recommend after such a long absence
  76. DENHAM BLACK – Unplaced on his last four runs, the latter over 3600m in a Class 4 chase at Granville on August 25th, 2024. He might need this run and is hard to fancy
  77. VERY NICE DREAM – Two 2nd placed runs last year, the latter over 3600m in a claiming hurdle at Clairefontaine on July 27th. Off for almost 7 months and others make more appeal
  78. KAPSA – Fair 5th over 3500m in a Class 4 chase at Dieppe on May 2nd 2024. Placed in Class 2 hurdles at Compiegne in 2023. Reverts to hurdles and can get off the mark
    Summary: KAPSA (12) ran a reasonably good race over fences at Dieppe when last seen 9 months ago. She will be fit and should appreciate the drop in class after racing in tough Class 1 and Class 2 events at Auteuil last spring. Her main danger could be KING OF SAINTLY (3) who was fifth at Fontainebleau in a Class 3 hurdle in December on his latest outing. CELTIC JABAAR (2) is one to include in all of the place bet permutations. REILLINGARRY (5) looks best of the rest.

  1. BOOGIE – Ignore last run when 11th, was a winner before that over 2600m at Marseille Vivaux in a Handicap and can go close. Big chance
  2. LOR BLANC – Placed a fair 5th at Deauville last time over 3400m in a Handicap and can get much closer now. Good each way chance
  3. DREAMS – Has finished down field in the last two starts which is a concern and therefore others are far preferred. Pass by
  4. SHANAKILL – Placed 4th at this course over 2000m in a Handicap on the 19th of this month and can earn again. Respect and include for the quartet
  5. MAD RIVER – Was victorious three races back, finished 5th over 2400m at Pau last time and can finish in the first four. Place value suggestion
  6. GALIGERA – Fairly lightly raced and maybe not quite fully exposed. Placed 6th over 2500m at Deauville on the 14th of last December and can race fresh. Place chance

  8. PASSAGE MESLAY – Will need to progress on last run when only 9th at this track over 2400m in a Handicap and is hard to make a case for. Pass by
  9. TUPPES – Will need to build on latest 8th place over 2400m on the 10th of February and others should be much stronger today. Happy to ignore

  11. TERRE BLANCHE – Last two efforts have been disappointing but form before that is fair. Finished only 12th at this track over 2150m last time and can do better
    Summary: COUPE D’EUROPE (7) has placed 8 times from 10 starts and is overdue the maiden win. She finished 4th at this track over 2400m in a Handicap on the 21st of last month and is given serious winning claims. TERRE BLANCHE (11) has posted two poorruns recently but can be forgiven for those and judged on better earlier form. BOOGIE (1) was a winner of his penultimate start but fluffed his lines after that. He can be expected to serve up way better today. LOR BLANC (2) was victorious five starts back and has run fair races since and should make his presence felt.

NOTA BENE (1) is in mustard form currently and has to be taken seriously. He was a winner three races back followed up by two good fourths.

  27. MISSOURI – Hard to make a case for on current and overall form and others are far preferred. Pass by

  30. EVER KATE – Lightly raced, placed 3rd over 1600m at Lignieres and might find this opposition a bit tough at this point. Happy to ignore
    Summary: WIND OF CHANGE (4) comes into the race fresh off a victory at this course over 1500m in a Handicap and is confidently selected to follow up. ROAST CHESTNUT (5) ran an absolute cracker last time when finishing 2nd showing that the effort before that was all wrong. HAPPY AGAIN (1) was a winner five runs back and has consistent form thereafter. He has strong each way claims and can be expected to be very competitive. MAMA IMELDA (6) has a first four chance.

    Summary: SILIUS (4) has won three out of last four starts, finished 4th in a Listed race and looks to be tough to beat today. Confident first choice. KAADI (6) has superb form, raced in features before and should provide plenty cheek all the way home and is a big runner. LIGHT MOOD (1) has run three times and excelled in all three races. He clearly has ability and must be factored into all bets. LIXTA (7) should make her presence felt all the way home.

    Summary: A sound winner over shorter last time out, UN INSTANT (5) has been in flying form this winter at Cagnes sur Mer and gets the vote to follow up. In good recent form too on the fibersand, CAMBRONNE (1) is also a winner of his last three starts on turf and looks a big threat. Veteran AMEDRAS (2) has never finished out of the frame over today’s course & distance. The consistent WALLY (4) is not the horse he once was but remains a danger in this division.

ANGEL CHARLY (2) ran a solid race at Pau last time and has Marie Vélon on board who takes a three pounds claim. VIZINDI (10) found the trip a touch too far in his last run here and should fare better over a more suitable distance today.

    Summary: It did not take long to KELLE STAR DI PAO (15) to be back at the top of her game as shows her last success at Bordeaux at the end of January. She can progress even more and is expected to follow up with another victory. Unbeaten in two starts over the course & distance, KAPITANO DREAM (11) should leave behind his last below-par effort. KENZA KALOUMA (16) is better than her last run suggests and can bounce back to win this race. The consistent KINDER SEVEN (8) has good each-way claims from her good starting berth on the front line.
