Saint Cloud Race 1 - Prix Birum Stakes
MONT DE SOLEIL (1) was 2025's G3 Grand Prix de Vichy winner and shaped encouragingly when beaten a nose tackling 2000m at Longchamp on latest outing. Sets the standard. POSCHIAVO (3) finished only a short-head further back in third that day and his Listed-placed three-year-old form commands respect. Main danger. CLIMATE CHANGE (6) was fourth in the same contest following a break and should improve with that run behind him. Makes appeal. DRUMARD (2) won a 2000m Class 2 handicap at this venue in March before finishing just over 1L away in fifth among stronger Chantilly company most recently. Cannot be discounted.
