Form Snapshot: Finished 4th on the most recent start over 3500m at this track in a claiming hurdle on November 9th. Needs to improve a good deal to trouble the principles
Form Snapshot: Got off the mark over 3400m at Loudeac in a Class 5 hurdle on April 5th last time out. Outside place contender
Form Snapshot: Won on her only run last year on the flat over 2300m at Durtal on January 26th, 2025. Long absence to overcome but is worth considering on hurdles debut
Form Snapshot: Better effort to be 2nd over 3550m in a Class 4 hurdle at Fontainebleau on April 15th last time out. Progressive and can feature
Form Snapshot: Four tame efforts so far, failed to complete the course over 3600m in a Class 5 hurdle at Argentan on March 6th last time out. One to pass over
Form Snapshot: 6th on her second run on the flat over 2400m at Lignieres on April 7th. Tries hurdles and should be well prepared on hurdles debut
Form Snapshot: Failed to complete over hurdles at Auteuil last month, a win before that at Saumur over 2700m in a Class 4 flat event on March 29th. Others preferred
Form Snapshot: Three unplaced runs of late, failed to finish last time at Auteuil over 3500m in a Class 2 hurdle on April 9th last time. Looks vulnerable
Form Snapshot: Filly by Indian Daffodil, the dam won 1 race over jumps. Likely to improve for this run and can be opposed on her first day at school
Form Snapshot: Finished 8th on her sole start over 3500m in a Class 2 hurdle at Auteuil on May 27th 2025. Absence to deal with and can improve for this run
Form Snapshot: Unraced filly by Stormy River, the dam won 2 races over jumps. She is from a respected trainer that knows the time of day. Can have a say if the market vibes are lively
Form Snapshot: Unplaced last time in a flat maiden in July 2025, 2nd before that over 2400m at Vichy in a conditions race on her debut on the flat on May 25th, 2025. Can be involved and will be well schooled
Verdict
IRUPTA MATUTA (1) won well on her second start at La Teste over 3600m early in April and is expected to be able to follow up. MARIE DES OBEAUX (5) showed improvement on her second run over hurdles at Fontainebleau when second in mid-April on her latest start and can be competitive. LOCCA DE THAIX (4) scored on her latest start on the flat at Durtal and will be well prepared despite her long absence and she will be well schooled for this hurdles bow. MORELLE (7) heads the rest.
