Stephane Wattel Stable Tour

Form profile

A Listed winner last year over 1m 4f, he was stepped up to Group company and was last seen finishing second behind Group 1 winner Iresine in another Listed contest over the same distance.

Trainer says

He could run in the Group 3 race, but only if we have some rain as he prefers soft ground. He is a very good Listed performer but unfortunately there are not many possible races for him. I’m not sure that he could win during the meeting.

Form profile

Consistent performer in Listed races, she last finished third in a race in which she was the only filly.

Trainer says

She is going to run in a Listed race on Saturday. She is in really good form and worked really well. I think she has a proper chance this weekend. She is very consistent.

Form profile

Won a handicap over 7f in February and has performed consistently since, finishing fifth on his last start when not beaten far.

Trainer says

He will make be making his mid-seasonal reappearance in the Prix de la Ville, a handicap over seven furlongs this Sunday, but he will be a horse to follow towards the end of the meeting. He had a little break as he ran often this winter and will be better after his first start.

Form profile

Won a maiden on her seventh attempt when stepped up to 1m 2f.

Trainer says

She is a filly in form. She just won and will be well placed in the handicaps. She will be very competitive.

Form profile

A winner at Deauville last December, she was carrying top weight on her latest start when finishing fourth in a 1m 1½ f handicap.

Trainer says

He is a regular performer in a handicap. He doesn’t win very often, but he is often placed. He only runs on the PSF - that’s his surface.

Form profile

Lightly raced this season, winning a 1m 1½f handicap at Deauville on her only start in January.

Trainer says

She is a good filly who will make her mid-seasonal reappearance in the middle of August. She hasn’t run since January, but she will be ready for her entry and should run well.

Form profile

Didn’t have the clearest of runs in the Golden Gates at Royal Ascot but still did well to finish third behind Quai De Bethune and looks like a Group horse in the making.

Trainer says

He is a really good horse, with as yet untapped potential. He didn’t have the easiest trip at Ascot and will now have to adapt to a difficult track at Goodwood, carrying quite a bit more weight than I expected. I still have to get used to the handicapping system in the UK. In France, we only go up in the handicap mark if the horse has won. He is a good horse who has to run with a weight that is quite significant. I think he is a horse that can go beyond the handicap category.

Form profile

Still looking for a first victory after seven starts, but her last start at Clairefontaine when third looked promising.

Trainer says

She is a filly who has a very small handicap mark. But she is well and could win a race during the meeting, but only a very small handicap.

Form profile

Has won both her last two starts over 7f, successfully negotiating the step up from maiden to Class 2 company.

Trainer says

She has just won her race and won’t be running at Deauville during the meeting. I’m preparing her for a Listed in Germany at Baden-Baden, which should suit her.

Form profile

Still a maiden after three starts over 1m 1f.

Trainer says

I like this horse. I am a bit disappointed that I haven’t succeeded in making him a winner yet and I’m hoping that he will win at Deauville this summer. He started his career quite late and, as I said, I am hoping he will be very competitive.

Form profile

Won a 7f handicap after finishing second in a claimer and wasn’t beaten far when finishing second in a 6f handicap at Deauville in July.

Trainer says

She is a consistent filly who should run well in a handicap towards the half-time point of the meeting. She is suited by six furlongs.

Form profile

Ultra-consistent handicapper who is looking for another victory after finishing the 2024 season on a high.

Trainer says

He is such a consistent performer and will be once more competitive in handicaps over six furlongs. He isn’t ground dependent.

Form profile

Won a maiden on debut and wasn’t beaten far when finishing third in a 1m 6f Class 2 event at ParisLongchamp.

Trainer says

She has just qualified to run in handicap races, and I think she is well handicapped. She will run in a Quinté over a mile and a half, and I hope that she has a proper chance.

Form profile

Still a maiden, he made a good impression last time out despite being well beaten into second place by the André Fabre-trained Hotheaded.

Trainer says

Ah, he is a horse that I like a lot. I have high hopes for him for the maiden races in Deauville. He is a good horse, who we had to geld. He has just come back and seems to be in very good form. I think that he obviously will lack a run, but he is a horse that will have a proper chance in the middle of August.

Form profile

Won a maiden on her second start over 1m 3f.

Trainer says

She has just won and will now be stepped up in class. She will improve, but she will need very soft if not heavy ground. That is when she will be at her best.
