G1 – 1400m – Turf
1 |
Beauvatier |
Won twice over this 1400m trip as a two-year-old. On a comeback mission after trailing in 12th of 13 in the French 2000 Guineas over 1600m. |
2 |
Sajir |
Definite chance. Third in G3 over 1400m last time out. Reportedly made progress since. His trainer has a record five wins in the Prix Jean Prat. |
3 |
Puchkine |
One of two supplementary entries he was out of luck in the French 2000 Guineas, then took fourth behind Havana Cigar (second) and Sajir (third) in a G3. |
4 |
Kikkuli |
A half-brother to the legendary Frankel was a strong finishing short-head runner-up last time out in the G3 Jersey Stakes over 1400m at Royal Ascot. Won over the Jean-Prat distance on his three-year-old reappearance. |
5 |
Iberian |
He beat subsequent Irish 2000 Guineas winner Rosallion last year. Flopped on only start this season, when last in the 2000 Guineas over 1600m. Trainer hopeful his colt can prove that was a one-off and turns up with a big chance. |
6 |
Devil’s Point |
Trained in England by a Frenchman, Devil’s Point drops back in distance after making all the running to win the G2 German 2000 Guineas over 1600m. The Jean-Prat was always on his agenda for his astute trainer. |
7 |
Havana Cigar |
He finished two lengths clear of Sajir when a short neck second last time out in the G3 Prix Paul de Moussac at ParisLongchamp. After two seconds this term his trainer is hoping it will be a case of third time lucky. |
8 |
Vespertilio |
Smart Irish-trained filly was an impressive G2 winner last season over this 1400m trip. A very decent third on 2024 debut in the G1 French 1000 Guineas. Well fancied to follow up in Irish equivalent but disappointed in finishing only ninth. |
9 |
Monteille |
Won her two-year-old maiden over 1400m last season and lines up on the back of a win on her second appearance this term in a G3 (1200m) at Chantilly in May. Has a live chance. |
10 |
Romantic Style |
Owners Godolphin have won the Jean-Prat a record five times. Romantic Style won over this course and distance on seasonal bow in April. Fourth in the French 1000 Guineas on only subsequent start, fading close home. |
11 |
Zandy |
Supplemented by Andre Fabre and failed to make much of an impression on her two starts in far less elevated company this term. Stablemate Sajir makes more appeal. |
12 |
Kathmandu |
Major chance if repeating her fine second, beaten only a head at the post, in the French 1000 Guineas. This shorter trip makes her one for the short list. |
