Group-placed type making Vincennes debut after running 5th of 9 over 2140m at Solvalla mid-November. Just 29 Euros from elimination though and with his trainer reining will be afforded every chance

Race Overview

A complicated but particularly capable colt, ESPRESSO ITALIA (7) has raced and placed against older horses and is good enough to open his Vincennes account at the first time of asking. That said, EXPRESS D'ARC (14) most recently got his winter off to a successful start and Eric Raffin will be keen to confirm. On a 4-timer, ETRANGER JOYEUSE (9) is barefoot this time and has been reunited with Alexandre Abrivard who imposed with him late-spring. KHEOPS BOURBON (13) has been knocking at the door and will be competitive for a spot on the podium.

Selection:

7 - 14 - 9
