Surprise 7th of 12, at 108/1, in Prix Rene Balliere last month. Has references at this level but, in this company, will have too much to do

Occasionally a handful but very good 2nd of 10 in 2100m Kouvola Gr.1 on 15 June. Seldom disappoints when focused and is in with a realistic shout of securing just his 2nd Gr.1

9th of 12, on return to competition, in Gr.1 Prix Rene Balliere over 2100m at Vincennes 3 weeks ago. Will have come on for the run, boasts a chrono of 1'08''4 over the distance, and will be competitive for a large slice of the pie

Unlucky 10th of 12 in Prix Rene Balliere late last month after having gone close earlier in the month. Has never delivered over a mile but appreciates Enghien and can get a look-in

5th of 8 [GO ON BOY (2) sanctioned] in Gr.1 Elitloppet at Solvalla late-May. Has had ample time to prepare for this and, given his speed, will not let GO ON BOY (2) get away from him. Chance

Unraced since coming 6th of 14, behind INMAROSA (3), in 4150m Gr.1 Prix de Paris late-February. Thrives over the distance, has won 2 of 3 at Enghien, and looks capable of challenging for a place in the frame

Class element that finished a reassuring 6th of 14 in a 2175m Vincennes Gr.2 early last month. Has won 2 of 3 here, is a Gr.1 winner over 2100m, and despite the draw must be afforded respect

6th of 12 finishers in a 2150m Class C here a fortnight ago. Front shoes off this time but races here on a prayer and the wide draw will do her no favours

Race Overview
Older horses have the advantage in this superb mile contest with most of the money expected to be down on the well-placed and speedy GO ON BOY (2) who finished close runner-up in the Gr.1 Kymi Grand Prix mid-June. In current form he looks just to have the edge over Elitlopp 5th, HOHNECK (5), who finished 3rd in this race 12 months ago. INMAROSA (3) left a very good impression behind Romain Derieux's charge in the Gr.1 Criterium de Vitesse at Cagnes earlier in the year and Leo Abrivard will be eager to take advantage of the excellent draw. AMPIA MEDE SM (6) simply excels over these shorter trips, sports a new configuration, and will be no soft touch.
