Longchamp Race 2

Prix De Barbeville (Group 3)

Stake: $151,986

PRESAGE NOCTURNE (3) was a commendable fourth in Riyadh on seasonal reappearance. Form of a third in the G3 Prix Gladiateur gives him a strong record at this course. Improvement expected from first-up effort. INTERNAUTE (7) returned with a victory in the 2400m Listed Prix de la Porte de Madrid. Yet to try this distance. Interesting to see if the colt enjoys additional stamina test. CANDELARI (4) remains unbeaten after three starts. Comfortable victory in a Class 1 conditions race at Chantilly. Exciting prospect. BEL ET BIEN (1) holds each way claims after a reappearance win in the Listed Prix Right Royal.

Looking to keep his unbeaten record intact. When well in the market, favourite; won by 8 len at Chantilly All Weather February 14 over 2700m defeating Kapani with 51.5kg at $1.50. Going well and looks hard to beat again here.

Previously second-up 2nd of 11 at Chantilly on March 30 2024 over 2000m, on rain affected going; 2.5 len behind Savannenstern carrying 58kg at $2.50. In form and looks a top chance again.
