Race Overview
PUREST TIME (3) has been in good shape of late and ran a solid race when he was fourth in a Group 3 race in Germany last time. He has a live danger in COEUR DE PIERRE (1) who is a course and distance winner and his fourth at Deauville at Deauville in late August in a Group 3 event was a pleasing effort. LE TABOU (9) is a solid performer and will be expected to have a say in proceedings. LE CADEAU (2) warrants respect and was a second in a Listed race at this track in May.
