G3 – 2000m – Turf

Bolthole

Dual Listed winner this term. Performed well when tackling tougher opposition in a G3 last time out over this distance at Vichy.

Centrical

Trained beside the track by Stephane Wattel. Winner of a Class 1 race at Longchamp in May before trailing in last of eight in G3 company. First run since June.

Kertez

This consistent contender has been knocking on the door in Group class, with five placed efforts over 2400m and this 2000m trip.

Monty

Andreas Schutz’s veteran two-time G3 winner returns for a third tilt at this race after placing second and third over the past two seasons. Had Bolthole and Kertez in front of him latest run.

Place du Carrousel

Sprang a surprise as an outsider in the G1 Prix de l’Opera last year. Fifth on seasonal bow in Prix Ganay. This race is a springboard for this classy filly’s autumn campaign.

Reshabar

Tough assignment for this two-time Listed scorer who is stepping up in distance after a seven-run losing streak over 1600m.

Rex Of Thunder

Contender trained in the Czech Republic. Booked his ticket for this first run in France thanks to a 2400m success in Prague in June after a couple of placed efforts in Slovakia.

Zariyannka

Had a tilt at the G1 Prix de l’Opera on Arc weekend at Longchamp in 2020, finishing second last. Two wins and two places this term in Bratislava and Prague.
