Caen Race 6 - Prix Des Ducs De Normandie - Attele - Group 2
More than twice as wealthy as his nearest rival here, HOHNECK (12) won this race in 2023 before running 4th 12 months ago, and in the day's configuration will be a tough nut to crack. Leading the opposition, IGUSKI SAUTONNE (4) was superb in the Prix de l'Atlantique at Enghien and will not be sent out at 30/1 this time. Convincing winner of an Angers Gr.3 early last month, INO DU LUPIN (7) steps up in category but should appreciate these conditions and must not be underestimated. FACE TIME (8) is clearly close to his race and has won 3 of his last 4 here.
