Rather more modest fare in France today at Chantilly after yesterdays Longchamp group action. 

However the 14.49   3yo 1m2f handicap on soft going here  has piqued my interest. Particularly the mount ridden by Mosse,  today being its handicap debut . On the face of it three pretty uninspiring runs in maidens at different tracks with seemingly different tactics employed on each occasion. However looking in more detail at the race  replays it seems to have been given some very' considerate handling' and  I'm quite sure it hasn't reached the limits of its ability yet. The trainer to be fair hasn't had a great strike rate in the last year, although previously was in a low/average win /place %, so wouldn't be a strong selection but in a field of very moderate individuals, some already exposed as unprogressive types, I'm happy to take an ew wager of  20/1ew for TOPCITY.

Dismal run. Broke well and going OK rounding the end into the home straight but when asked to pick up zero response and tailed off firmly last. Of course may have picked an injury or infact horse has decided it doesn't care for this racing malarkey much and if Mosse couldn't get a response then best avoided. Be interesting to see if it pops into a claimer now however or has a trainer change.

La Teste 15.05

 

Although the current favourite in the Group 3 Arab race was a 7 length winner on debut it was at a pretty low grade track and maiden. It's going up 3F today on very soft going and with Peslier taking over the reins on the second favourite, having just been pipped at the post - with the winner of that race finishing a 2 length third in a Group 2next time out, 5/1 seems far too big for me with arguably better form.

13.55 La Teste

 

An Interesting 5 runner race in prospect with current Rouget favourite, by Frankel, a three time winner in this grade, up against a bigger priced stable mate with inform claimer aboard and a second favourite with red-hot trainer form - both dropping in class. Tactics will be very interesting in this small field. At the prices the second Rouget runner appeals more to me as an ew selection. 

Mon Ouragon 6/1ew

A win and a place yesterday in France, hoping for more of the same in two hurdles at Nancy, both with British interest. 

 

11.50 Peregrina 10/3ew.  Reveley booked, backed down already from forecast price. 

 

10.50 Walkin out. Felix De Giles booked for the ride for the noted Cottin yard. Interesting that it is owned by Robert Waley Cohen. Could well be worth following in that regard to see where it goes next. 8/1ew

Walkin out came second. Only noticed checking the results and watching the replay that there was a JC so no FeluxDG aboard. Wasn't convinced the right tactics were applied on the heavy ground. Will follow this horse though as until the last was jumping with fluency.

Atomic Force win at 4/6 at Chantilly, pretty convincing ride. 

Did bet as a cashback if 2nd or 3rd but thought it was a good thing.

Having a break had 4 or 5 bad days will tweet picking system no better yesterday 1 place 3 losers so needs more adjustments ☹️?

[Offramp]

I have a feeling that British racing is picking up after a wet few months. 

I started to make money after Bastille Day! I had a month of losses on bogs and swamps in Britain.

I've had a good year so far with 6 profitable months but July is proving disappointing. I think we try and find logic for good or bad runs but I suspect it's just the randomness of numbers.

Clairefontaine 11.15

 

Alce seems to me to represent good value, against the two Macaire runners heading the market.I don't think Alce is fully exposed yet and if the excellent Nathalie Desoutter claiming 4, can ride it a bit closer to the pace than on its debut where it seemed to take time to settle, I'm hopeful it will be still in contention at the last. 

ALCE-

Very dissapointing. Seemed pretty unable to keep up with the race pace and although switched to the outside to have a clearer view of the hurdles it appeared to have little benefit. However I will keep on eye on it if it appears for an entry on a firmer surface.
