Recommended Posts

just a quick one prix du jockey 245 ch karaktar 101.97 silverwave 101.37 high dynamite 101.22 new bay 100.98 karaktar sets the standard here and will be hard to beat but hard to weigh up silverwaves form as time for heavy win looks quick so could be better than bare form . .new bay is expected to improve so has to be in with a shout but im being pulled towards the forgotten horse high dynamite who was beaten 3.5 lengths by karaktar but ran an absolute cracker nonetheless...wasnt given a hard race and has nice draw near low rail today .....in reality shouldnt beat karaktar but if can get within two lengths then could realistically place if that one wins ...price ?? ....40/1!! ... with corals ....speculative but of fun bet high dynamite 2 pts ew 40/1 corals

Re: flat racing sunday 31st may prix du jockey 4:05 Chantilly - Grand Prix de Chantilly - Group 2 Andre Fabre trains the well bred market leader Manatee who looked progressive as a 3 year old and can improve further from his reappearance. He's got to improve to land this Group 2 prize and although he does have the potential as a son of Monsun out of a mud loving mare the quicker conditions aren't likely to suit. He's won over 15f on very soft ground but has several wins over 12f and he wouldn't be here if his trainer didn't believe he had the speed for this trip. Prince Gibraltar is bred for 10f and although he stayed well over this trip in the Grand Prix de Paris as a 3 year old, that race was run at a slow pace and he was found out in the Arc weakening in the final furlong with every chance of placing. I wouldn't be too harsh on his reappearance as his trainer stressed he would need the run but he hasn't lived up to his promise as a juvenile and I can't have him over this trip. Next in the market is last years winner Spiritjim who then went on to beat Noble Mission in the Group 1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud but was disqualified after it was found he used a banned substance to help with his breathing. He then ran well in the Prix Foy not far behind Flintshire despite never really settling off a slow pace so his form is strong. The ground looks ideal and I would be not be surprised if he runs a big race now back over his trip after not staying 15f on his reappearance. Agent Murphy comes over from the UK and although he won a Listed race at Ascot comfortably this is a big step up in class. He's likely to be up with the pace alongside German raider Guardini who was well beaten on his last two visits to France. He won a Group 2 in Germany last time out but also looks to have a bit to find. This is likely to be run at a strong pace with the two foreign raiders as well as Manatee likely to race prominently. This will put Prince Gibraltar's stamina under pressure but will play into the hands of Spiritjim likes to sit in behind the leaders and will relish an end to end gallop. Olivier Peslier is a great booking and with the ground, trip and strong gallop to suit last years winners can go close. Spiritjim - 1pt Win @ 5/1 Ladbrokes
