Gave a good account when 3rd of 10 finishers, behind FIDELIS DANCE (2), in a 2100m Class B here on 11 October, but still has more to find

Decent 2nd of 10 finishers in a 2100m Class B here on 11 October, but can expect to find the going tougher this time

3rd in a Gr.3 under these conditions before finishing a valiant 5th of 6 in a 2175m Gr.2 here 2 weeks ago. Is a scrapper, has been entrusted to Alexandre Abrivard, and shod as he was at Parilly, can play an active role

Takes a necessary dip in class after finishing last of 6, behind LAGNU MAG (3), in a 2175m Gr.2 here a fortnight ago, but still looks out of his depth

Returns to racing left-handed after struggling to turn, finishing 5th of 9 in a 2875m Argentan Class A last Sunday. Has been specifically prepared for this and looks a player

4th of 10, a place behind LAGNU MAG (3), in a Gr.3 over course and distance late-September. Comes here fresh and looks thoroughly capable of making first 5

5th of 10, behind LAGNU MAG (3), on return to competition in a Gr.3 over track and trip on 29 September. Will have come on for the run and, sporting 4 pads, with Eric Raffin reining, will have his chances

Race Overview
Terrific in both codes and quite clearly a colt for the future, LIONHEART (4) was most impressive in the ridden discipline last time out, and with JMB back in the bike for the first time since qualifying him, he should be good enough to keep the victory-train running. That being said, LEONARDO ROC (8) was impressive in the Gr.1 Prix Albert Viel when fitted with 4 pads, and Eric Raffin gets the nod this time. Already a Class A winner over course and distance, LEADER DE JOUDES (6) returns to Vincennes with a good hand to play.

4 - 8 - 6
