Auteuil Race 3 - Prix Des Platanes Hurdle
PURPLE POWER (1) won all three hurdle starts including by a head over 3500m at this circuit in May. Taken to complete a four-timer. RUNNIN'BLUE (12) debuted with an impressive 3L success contesting a 3200m event at Compiegne in May. Expected to play a role in the finish. CLOTH OF GOLD (3) built on a promising runner-up effort tackling 3400m at Clairefontaine when gaining a 3L success over the same course and distance making his hurdle debut. Must be considered. TROTINETTE (4) lost out by a neck to a subsequent winner racing from the front contesting a 3400m event at Clairefontaine end of June. One to note.

Had two starts to date. At debut, settled back and ran on when finished fifth of 10 starters at Clairefontaine on June 24 over 3400m, on slow going 6 len behind Mix Match carrying 67.5kg at $30.10. Second-up rolled along in front and was edged out late finished second of 10 runners at Clairefontaine on July 15 over 3400m, on slow going a head behind Glorious Day carrying 67.5kg at $10.80. Promising galloper. Can win without surprising.
