Longchamp Race 7 - Qatar Prix De La Foret (G1)
TRUE LOVE (8) Not in contention when 6th last time at Leopardstown. Rl Moore is a suitable booking. Performing honestly since coming back from a spell. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. THESECRETADVERSARY (4) Ran 6th last start at Deauville. Capable of a strong comeback. Has shown early pace in races to date. Has won 3 from 6 starts this campaign. Will be around the mark at odds. SAMANGAN (2) Secured the win by a slim margin last time at Deauville and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Jockey Mickael Barzalona and trainer Fh Graffard (S) work well together. Goes close. MY CALYX CEN (6) Was nothing special when 8th last run at Deauville. Has early speed and positions nicely. Can get the job done.

Jumped at $29.00 and lost momentum late when 6th last run at York. Should come to hand quickly. Entitled to be a big price.

Odds of $11.00 and not up to scratch when 8th last run at Deauville. Likely to be well placed early. Genuine claims.
