Folkene has joined Roger Fell after selling for €23k at the Arqana sales 🇫🇷

I think this could provide to be a shrewd piece of business, here’s why ⬇️

www.prixdelahorse.com/post/recruit...
Recruits - Folkene
Given the way she travels into her races, the stronger early pace that she is likely to encounter in the UK should suit and once she has acclimatised, I expect her to add further wins to her CV.

Everyone would love to own a filly like Al Uqda. She’s tough, fast, front-running and progressive. She produced another classy performance to win yesterdays feature race at Vichy 🇫🇷
Here are my notes on the Prix Madame Jean Couturie ⬇️

All the talk is about Midak, but there are 2 French runners in the Derby this year 🇫🇷
Here are my notes on New Ground, who runs for Henri-Francois Devin and Juddmonte ⬇️

www.prixdelahorse.com/post/the-der...
The Derby - New Ground
Midak is the more likely of the French pair, but all of the media attention on Francis-Henri Graffard’s Colt has overshadowed that fact that Juddmonte have also chosen to send a runner from France.

A difficult renewal of the Prix du Jockey Club for a bet, even if it does look to be the better of the 3 Derbys this year…..I’ll leave that alone and focus on a couple of each-way bets on the undercard instead 🇫🇷
