Longchamp Race 1 - Des Tertres Stakes
Caravaggio gelding ERDENALI (2) made the perfect start to his career debuting with an impressive 6.5L victory in a 1600m newcomers race at Saint-Cloud. Selected to complete a double. FOCUS (6) returned to action managing a 1L third in the 1600m Listed Prix Aymeri de Mauleon at Toulouse. Expected to play a role. VERNON (4) built on a promising debut effort at Chantilly AW when breaking his maiden by 1.25L in a 1600m event at Saint-Cloud. Must be considered. TALMAS (5) faded late running 5.75L sixth in the G3 Prix de Fontainebleau attempting 1600m at this venue. Notable contender dropping in grade.

Second run back. Comes off a 53-day let-up. First-up after four months came home strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 7 at Saint-Cloud in LR on March 15 over 1600m, on heavy track; 6 len behind Elastic with 58kg at $11. Previously second-up 8th of 12 at Saint-Cloud on September 12 over 1400m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Dostoievsky with 55.5kg at $5. Needs something easier.

Third-up today. First-up 2nd in a small field at Chantilly All Weather on March 12 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Synaran carrying 57kg at $4.80. Second-up 6th of 8 at this track in the G3 Prix De Fontainebleau on April 12 over 1600m, 6 len behind Komorebi with 58kg at $19. Fitter and is one of the chances.

Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Last start won by a nose at Chantilly April 2 over 1600m defeating Evita with 57kg at $14. The run before that 3rd of 7 at Marseille-Borely on March 18 over 1800m, slow going 0.9 len behind Cosmic Boy carrying 55.5kg at $15. Harder here and place is preferred.
