Chantilly Race 4 - Le Fabuleux Listed Stakes
The exciting MIDAK (3) returns to the track after finishing downfield tenth tackling the G1 Derby at Epsom Downs in June beaten 16.5L over 2400m. Gelded and dropping in trip may resume progress. Obvious interest. DIEGO VENTURA (1) is well exposed compared to most of these. Needs to bounce back for a fifth attempting a G3 in Germany six weeks ago. Down in grade and could play a role. NITOI (8) was not disgraced in the G2 Prix Niel when fancied at Longchamp four weeks back. Drops in standard and needs a close look. The unbeaten MARCHON (6) steps up in grade to listed level and warrants thought. Danger

Comes off a 38 day let-up. At the latest run won by 1.3 len at Lyon-Parilly September 3 over 1600m on a soft track defeating Queen's Trial with 57kg at $2.10. The run before that 9th of 12 at Deauville in the G3 Prix Daphnis on August 10 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Sahlan with 57.5kg at $16. Would have to improve even further.
