Sunday, Chantilly, post time: 16:07, PRIX MONTENICA-Listed, €50,300, 3yo, 6 1/2f (AWT)
Field: Shaatir (GB) (Havana Grey {GB}), Bourgoin (Fr) (Ardad {Ire}), Dandy Style (Ire) (Dandy Man {Ire}), Mr Wonka (Fr) (Mehmas {Ire}), Kailani (Fr) (Goken {Fr}), Zuender (Ger) (Amaron {GB}), Rencontre Sportive (Fr) (Seabhac), My Calyx Cen (Ire) (Calyx {GB}), Break Dance (Fr) (Too Darn Hot {GB}), Showna (Fr) (Kendargent {Fr}), Thora (Ire) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}), No Tune (GB) (No Nay Never), Ananke (Fr) (Zelzal {Fr}).
TDN Verdict: This sees the reintroduction of No Tune, who was unbeaten in two starts here last term before finishing third to the re-opposing Kailani in Deauville's Prix Priolo conditions event last month. Bourgoin was impressive over this trip at Deauville in December and remains unexposed. [Tom Frary].
Sunday, Chantilly, post time: 16:42, PRIX MAURICE CAILLAULT-Listed, €50,300, 3yo, 9f (AWT)
Field: My Way (Fr) (Galiway {GB}), Gusto (Ger) (Zarak {Fr}), Arden Mist (Volatile), Apolide (Fr) (Goken {Fr}), Segall (Ire) (Sottsass {Fr}), Sorbetto (Fr) (Supremacy {Ire}), Menacant (Fr) (Threat {Ire}), Hello Jo (Fr) (Hello Youmzain {Fr}), Reveur (Ire) (Frankel {GB}), Al Rateel (Violence), Anashkaya (Ire) (Starspangledbanner {Aus}), Lethal Beauty (Fr) (Acclamation {GB}).
TDN Verdict: Following her wins at Cagnes-sur-Mer, Al Rateel is in deeper waters but her Poule d'Essai des Pouliches and Prix de Diane entries suggest she is held in high regard and she is race-hardened. Another filly Anashkaya was impressive over a mile here in January, while of the colts the Fabre representative Segall starts with a clean slate after tailing off at two. As a son of the Rockfel winner Spain Burg (Sageburg), he would be dangerous to write off. [Tom Frary].
