Prestige Vendome and La Hoguette Interesting at Chantilly




Shifting Power who finished fourth in the English Two Guineas and second in the Irish equivalent runs in the Prix Jean Prat at Chantilly and may be a bigger price on the PMU than the 5/2 with English bookmakers if you fancy him. It’s worth keeping an eye on the French pools to see what price he’s likely to go off at as sometimes the Hannon horses can go off quite short as they are familiar with him and the success he has going over to France.

Prestige Vendome returns back to a mile after trying the French derby over 10.5 furlongs over ground that was a little too quick for him.  He was just beaten a neck in the French Two Thousand Guineas by Krakonite on good to soft and finished a length behind Ectot in the group one Criterium International at Saint-Cloud on heavy so ground will be fine for him while Charm Spirit and Shifting Power would like better ground.  He is currently below the 3-1 mark on the PMU but available at 5/1 with the UK bookies and a little smaller on Betfair.

La Hoguette is currently only 6.1 on the PMU but 16 on Betfair; she is another who will relish the currently heavy ground.  It’s quite a step up for her but she recently finished second to Fintry in a group two on good but her best performances have come on soft ground, the race starts at 13:50 GMT.
