Chantilly Tips

Form suggests the winner will come from the top three picks. DROLE DE DAME has a lot of early speed and should run fitter for past attempts, one of the main hopes. BROTHERS OF LILY'S has the speed to overcome drawing the widest barrier, in the mix. DROGO has a lot of early speed and has won three times at Chantilly before, right in this. FORZA CAPITANO let-up for 12 weeks and has the speed to overcome an unfavourable draw, not without each-way claims.

Bit of a guessing game here with only limited data. NAKED MEMORIES finished four lengths off the winner last start at Compiegne on a soft track when resuming, has solid claims. LE SID finished at the rear at only start at Deauville, don't dismiss. GRAND DETOUR in the money at only start running third at Craon, looks threatening. EGGLESTON ran 17 lengths back from the winner at only start at Clairefontaine, could upset.

Expecting this to be run at a genuine clip. HOOKING first-up after 14 week break and has a lot of early speed, serious player. CICCIO BOY has a lot of early speed, for the wider exotics. ROCK BLANC first-up after 13 week break. Proven first-up winning two from two when fresh and won at Chantilly last go, consider in exotics. PERLE ROUGE won last start at Chateaubriant on a soft track and capable of racing on speed, for the exotics.

Can’t imagine one of the top two not winning. EMMANUELLE finished 14 lengths off the winner at only start at Deauville, among the main chances. AL JAFARA finished in the middle of the pack at only start at Chantilly on a heavy track, must be considered. SPRING LILY drawn the rails, in with a chance. MISTYSEA has plenty of early speed and a likely leader, don't treat lightly.

Hard to split the top two picks. BELLA INDIA has placed in both races run, has solid claims. RAYEVKA finished a nose back from the leader at only start at Deauville, for the exotics. STAR OF BRITTANY has a lot of early speed, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck. MAGGIORE ran sixth at only start at Deauville, for the wider exotics.

A number of horses will look to battle it out for the early lead. MEHMIST ran fourth at only start at Dieppe, genuine contender. PRECIOSO finished three lengths off the winner at only start at Compiegne, looks threatening. IRONICO hasn't been far away in first two races, still in this. DYONISOS drawn the rails, sneaky chance.

A race that should be solid pressure applied in early stages. KUMITE back from long 57 week spell and hasn't run a bad race, big chance. ZORKEN has genuine early speed, dangerous. SHAMROCK GLITTER let-up for six weeks and has been flying of late, in with a chance. TOMAKAY has a lot of early speed and three wins from six attempts this campaign, capable of getting into the money.

Backmarkers should get their chance in a good speed race. BABA SIM looks the leader and C Demuro has had success aboard previously, well placed. VICTORY SALUTE has plenty of early speed and a likely leader, could upset. LOVELY ANGEL has genuine early speed and won once this prep at Le Touquet three runs back, cannot be ruled out. SCARFACE should find the lead easily having drawn well, looks threatening.
