"This was a very striking debut and I can’t help but feel that both the visual impression and the data suggest that this filly will be a stakes performer".

"He put this race to bed with such ease that it’s hard to imagine that he isn’t an above average type".

"Whilst I’m sure there are plenty of promising 2-year-olds still to be unleashed by Andre Fabre, Kosuma would look to be the best of his 2-year-olds to have run so far".

"Given the way that Hawk Mountain finished his race, he would appear to be the Ballydoyle number one for the Prix du Jockey Club".

"Her connections will be hoping that they can land a Group 1 with her and if the last year has taught us anything, it is that her trainer is undoubtedly the best trainer in France to achieve that goal"

"He is just about the best of the 3-year-old Colts in France, but he certainly isn’t out on his own, so I will hold on before I pencil him in as a Classic winner".

"She is clearly talented and if she can be persuaded to consent, she may well prove to be a class above this field".

"After watching her demolish the field in the Prix Cleopatre on Friday afternoon, I’d be confident enough to say that she is the best 3-year-old filly in France".

"As fillies trials go, this looks to be one of the better ones and she must now rank amongst the favourites for the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches".

I am in no doubt that he should be capable of developing into a Group 1 performer later in the season based on the evidence that we have from this performance.

"I thought that he was the best horse in this field and he should get the chance to go one better with a clear run around next time".

"This was his first run since October, but having sat behind the pace on the inside rail, I really liked the way that he finished his race".

Everyone loves a big galloping grey horse don’t they? Le Kerry is from a very good family and his connections seem keen to make up for lost time with this 5-year-old.

"The most notable thing about this horse is the fact that he is a half-brother to Iroko, who has already brought festival success for these connections".

"He showed plenty of speed and was a nice winner to get his precocious sire off the mark".

With the firm view that the form will work out and that the best horse won the race, I think Mississipi is worth making note of.

Adam reviews the Listed Prix de la Porte de Madrid at Saint-Cloud, won by Marquisat for Andre Fabre.

"The fact that they moved to make this purchase in March is highly significant and he is a name to note".

"Whilst I certainly won't be getting carried away with this form, there was potentially an above average winner of this race to take note of".
