CAMBRONNE (2) completed a double winning by 1.25L tackling 1800m in a conditions event at Lyon-la-Soie. Expected to play a role.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a neck at Lyon-Parilly on September 26 over 1600m on a rain affected track defeating Lord Wootton Cen with 56.5kg at $4.20. Last start ran on strongly from last on the turn and won by 1.3 len at Lyon-la-Soie on October 11 over 1800m defeating Hypercore with 56kg at $23.50. Rates highly. Key chance who can go close.

Comes here off a 33-day let-up. Most recently 5th of 16 at Saint-Cloud on September 25 over 2400m, 2.5 len behind Tamyz with 57kg at $8.70. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 9 at Longchamp on September 13 over 2000m, neck behind Louiza carrying 59kg at $11.70. Hard to fault if at his best.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign post a big 3.5 len win. Granville-St-Pair-sur-Mer August 15 2025 over 3100m defeating L'hotesse De L'air carrying 64.5kg. Previously first up; fourth of 12 at Le Lion-d'angers August 3 2025 over 3000m, 4 len behind Silver Laser with 64kg at $23. Prefer to see how he has returned.

Most recently eased back early on 6th of 10 at Toulouse on September 30 over 2000m, 4.5 len behind Loreen carrying 60.5kg at $3.40. The run before that 4th of 18 at Longchamp on September 13 over 2000m, 2 len behind Aminaco carrying 54.5kg at $17.90. Should be at peak fitness now and shouldn't be far away.
