Chantilly Race 8 - Prix Bertrand Du Breuil Longines (Group 3)
SAHLAN (2) was safely held on return behind Notable Speech in the G1 Lockinge Stakes tackling 1609m at Newbury beaten 8L but this is far less demanding. He can be ridden patiently and looks a leading contender if finishing strongly. ELASTIC (4) was not far away when fifth attempting 1600m at Longchamp defeated 2.5L and the small field should suit. Represents the main danger. MATAURI BAY (3) has been holding form well and was second contesting 1600m in the Listed Prix de Montretout at Longchamp latest. Makes appeal. REMMOOZ (1) returned with a fair Ascot third and is not dismissed. Warrants some consideration.

Second run back. Comes off a 44-day let-up. First-up after eight months 3rd of 8 at Ascot in the LR Paradise Stakes on May 1 over 1609m, 1.5 len behind Jonquil with 61kg at $4.50. Previously second-up came from midfield and won by 3 len at Doncaster June 7 2025 over 1413m defeating Circios with 61.5kg at $2.10. Looks tested in this field.
