Having watched racing in France a lot since the resumption of the French racing, one thing that I see very often is a lot of the jockeys seem a bit one dimensional !

It is clear that Andre Fabre likes his horses to come from off the pace, it is very rare that they make the running.  His main two jockeys are P Boudot and M Barzalona- and both have plenty of experience of riding in France.  Barzalona is still retained by Godolphin, so he rides the horses he is retained for, and Fabre has a lot for Godolphin.  Boudot rides for numerous owners, and for me is riding with great confidence, he seems to be winning on a lot of horses that he shouldn’t , of late.  I think he could well win the 4.00 At Deauville, on Bring On The Night for Fabre, he is very short odds, and L’aigle looks his main rival, in the 12f event.  Both horses are possible improvers.

It looks like racing in the UK will get the green light to start on the 1st of June.  Let’s hope that no complications are likely over the next few days.  I am sure every precaution is being looked at.

More later.
