Form Snapshot: A moderate 12th in a Class 2 Handicap at Dieppe over 1,100m on 13 July 2026. His rating has dropped and that should make him competitive at a course where he has run well

Form Snapshot: A close-up 3rd in a Handicap over 1200m at Aix Les Bains on 7 July. He is performing consistently well and has placed at this track
Form Snapshot: Winner of a Handicap over1200m at Aix Les Bains on 7 July. She is in top form and will be fitted with a full set of blinkers for the first time
Form Snapshot: Not beaten far when 5th in a Handicap over 1200m at Deauville on 12 July. She is still a maiden but has run well in highly competitive races
Form Snapshot: Finished 12th in a Class 3 Handicap at Saint-Cloud over 1,400m on 5 July 2026. While his last few runs have been disappointing, he has a record of two wins and four places in seven runs at this track and could provide some excellent value
Form Snapshot: Finished 8th in a Claimer over 1500m at Marseille Vivaux on 22 May. Up in class, dropping in distance and coming back from a break, so will struggle
Form Snapshot: Not disgraced when fifth in a Class 4 Handicap at Aix Les Bains over 1,200m on 7 July 2026. That was a decent enough effort but more will be needed to trouble this field
Form Snapshot: Not disgraced when fifth in a Class 3 Handicap at Saint-Cloud over 1,200m on 12 June 2026. He has an excellent record at this course and should fight out the finish once again
Form Snapshot: Finished 11th in a Class 3 Handicap at Dieppe over 1,100m on 23 June 2026. Will have to work hard to leave her mark on this race
Form Snapshot: A mediocre 7th in a Handicap over 1200m at Aix Les Bains on 7 July. She is well held by others on that last run
Form Snapshot: A 0.50-length 2nd in a Handicap over1200m at Aix Les Bains on 7 July. That was her Handicap debut and there could be further progress
Form Snapshot: Finished 6th in a Class 3 Handicap at Dieppe over 1,100m on 13 July 2026. Has been moderate of late and will need to up his game to feature
Form Snapshot: A moderate 8th in a Class 4 Handicap at Dax over 1,400m on 29 June 2026. Will battle in this field and is best overlooked
Form Snapshot: A 0.5-length winner of a Class 3 Handicap at Dieppe over 1,100m on 13 July 2026. Has won her last two but faces stronger this time and has a penalty to deal with
Verdict
A tricky race but ISMAEL PAINT (6), despite his mediocre recent form, is back on track a where he has established an excellent record and could provide bettors with decent returns. There is little to choose between GO KEN GO (3), LARK (12), who has been supplemented into this race, and ASTREA (4) on their last run at Aix Les Bains where they finished third, second, and first respectively. All three need to be considered.
