10th May 2025

Looking ahead to the racing in France tomorrow at Longchamp. The racing starts at 12.58 with a Group 3 race over the minimum trip of 5 furlongs. Electric Storm won a Listed race at Bath on her return to action last month over 5 furlongs.

She has the assistance of Christophe Soumillon on top and could get the favourite backers off to a good start.

Audubon Park in the Group 2 race at 1.33 looks like she can keep her unbeaten record and give Soumillon a second winner. She was impressive when scoring in a Listed race at Saint-Cloud in early March and will be hard to beat.

In the Poule d’Essai des Poulins (2,000 Guineas) for colts at 3.25 it looks quite open. Ridari could be the best of the French runners and scored in his trial run over the course and distance in a Group 3 race on April 13th. He can give a good account of himself from stall 5. He is trading at around 8-1 and looks value.

In the fillies race Poule d’Essai des Pouliches at 4.05, it is hard to look beyond the favourite Zaragana, who won her trial race by a neck but will improve from that outing and is well drawn in stall 7.
