Longchamp Race 1 - Esoterique Listed Stakes
ANAKOVA (10) returned from a break when runner-up at Saint-Cloud in a Class Two over 1600m beaten a long-neck. More than entitled to improve second up and can go close. BRECKENBROUGH (1) finished third in a Listed race here after a break trying 1400m. Previously won tackling 1600m and can improve back to this trip. MOON CLOUD (2) concluded last campaign with a 2.5L win in a Listed event at Saint-Cloud over 1600m. Down field on comeback in the G3 Prix Edmund Blanc. Entitled to rediscover best. VELIKAYA (3) has not been seen since finishing second at Longchamp beaten 1.25L tackling 1800m in a Listed event at Longchamp. Interesting first up.
