Vincennes Race 5 - Prix Gaston Brunet-Criterium 4 Ans Q3 - Attele - Group 2
MELLOW SPEED (5) put an Enghien DQ behind him in winning by 1.25L in the G3 Prix de Geneve at the same venue. Selected to secure his seventh victory of the year. MENTOR DE PLAY (10) performed well in placing 2.75L second in the G2 Prix Phaeton - Criterium 4 Ans Q2 at Enghien. Expected to play a leading role. MAGIC MAN (8) lost out by 1.75L in placing third in the previously mentioned G3 Prix de Geneve at Enghien. Must be considered. MISTRAL DU BOIS (6) returned to action with an 11L eleventh racing off a 50m handicap in a lower grade event at Meslay-du-Maine. Claims on the form he demonstrated earlier this year.

Resumes today. His previous first-up run was successful when he posted a big 11m win at Le Croisé-Laroche beating Maestro D'elfe in 2yo race on October 14 2024 at $12. Might be better for this run.

Fair performance when beaten by 4.2m finishing second behind Mellow Speed at Enghien over 2875m in a 4yo G3 euro open restricted race on August 1 at $11.
