Whether it be "the race of the day" or a small prize round the gaffs, we will attempt to use our knowledge of the formbook to highlight the fancied horses participating each day and their characteristics and requirements. Hopefully this 'second opinion' provides you with a winner or two each day, or even reinforces your own view on a particular may even convince you to back some of those horses which we feel are the "ones to fear", or have decent eachway claims. whichever is the case, we hope the information is of use to you.
SELECTIONS - For each race, we have given you who, in our view, are the likeliest winners;
(1er. _ LE GAGNANT?), as well as any runners who could run well at eachway odds;

¦ .l.e. .h.o.n.g.r.e. .n.o.i.r. ¦:>- Royaleety, Black Honor, and Vésuve renew rivalry in the opener to Auteuil's card. They met here in the Prix des Platanes (Hurdle) here two weeks ago. On that occasion Royaleety, came out on top, finishing ahead of Black Honor, (btn 1
½lengths), with Vésuve well behind in sixth. As Black Honour has failed to beat Royaleety in their previous meetings, it is unlikely that he will reverse placings here, however Vésuve will come on appreciably for that run and this immature son of Villez will improve as the season continues [hence his inclusion in this season's One To Jump feature]. Royaleety is taken to score but I wont be surprised if he isn't hassled by Vésuve.

¦ .l.e. .h.o.n.g.r.e. .n.o.i.r. ¦:>- Fourteen runners line up for the second on the card, a hurdle race confined to non-thoroughbreds. Kalmist des Pictons, Kokin, Krosedoun, Kissaissa, Kadalmo, Kiss Baloo and Kalypsonn make most appeal. Guillaime Macaire's Kissaissa will improve from his "educational" run over hurdles at Vichy on his debut, however Kalmist des Pictons, [third on his hurdles debut in the Prix Tornay at Auteuil three weeks ago after showing promise on the level] and Kokin, [making his debut over obstacles having won at Angers on his latest effort] should fight this out. Kokin is taken to score for the Doumens.

¦ .l.e. .h.o.n.g.r.e. .n.o.i.r. ¦:>- A wide-open handicap comes next, where several have strong claims. Sangar, - Akarus, Ogham, Innox, Royal Bric, Jet du Bosc, Philastre, Montjoie, Janville, Broiswink and Clayton make most appeal. Innox, [a familiar horse to British fans, who has his first race since finishing second to Le Cid in the Prix du Président de la République (The French Grand National), and Sangar [an excellent third in teh Prix World Citizen (Chase) here two weeks ago] are likely to be strongly fancied, as are Ogham [formerly a decent hurdler in his youth, who has returned from injury to rattle up a hat trick of wins over fences; most recently here in the Prix Oeneas two weeks ago]; and Philastre, [who stayed on best of all to finish fourth in the Prix du Président de la République]. Ogham is definitely the horse to follow of these, however top weight may well anchor him here. If Philastre can lay handy enough his change of pace in a finish may be decisive. Anyone looking for a fun bet could do a lot worse than bottom weight Clayton ... this horse is huge and is better than the bare form-figures suggest.... it wouldnt surprise me if he got into the money.

¦ (ONE TO JUMP 2003) - are there any horses from "one to jump 2003" our feature which; each season, provides a list of horses to follow during the national hunt season?¦:>- Saint Des Saints,
¦ .l.e. .h.o.n.g.r.e. .n.o.i.r. ¦:>- Saint Des Saints, the leading four-year-old hurdler attempts to return to winning ways in this Group Three event. He was so impressive in landing the Prix Jacques d'Indy (Hurdle) (Grade 3) here in March; the Prix de Pepinvast (Grade 3 Hurdle) and Prix Amadou (Hurdle) (Grade 2) in April, and the Prix Sageris - Prix de Longchamp (Hurdle) (Grade 3) at the end of May. That was the eleventh race of his career, [which began when he won the Prix Grandak (Hurdle) in April 2001], so its possible that he went to the well once too often in the Prix Alain du Breil (Hurdle) (Grade 1) on his last start... its the only logical reason why Great Love (who he'd thrashed on his previous three meetings) was able to overturn the form. Karly Flight finished well behind him in fifth, however this brilliant chaser [the best four year old filly this year] is still improving. She has a fitness advantage having won the Prix Melanos (Hurdle) here two week ago wand will give Saint Des Saints, plenty to think about, and may Eperson [ third (btn 4
½length by Karly Flight in teh Prix Melanos (Hurdle), but now meets that rival on 4lbs better terms] and Cybergenic [consistently placed behind Saint Des Saints this year and virtually guaranteed to get into the frame]. Saint Des Saints, gets the vote, but it may not be pretty viewing.

He concedes 7kgs to Mystérieux Mr No, [a decent handicapper on the level] who connections will be hoping clears the practice obstacles after his spectacular fall in the race eventually won by Royal Ceti. I think connections will be pleased with a clear round from Mystérieux Mr No, who I expect to make the frame behind Royal Ceti

Carmarthen Junior, [a five year old son of Sandhurst Prince] has been in good form of late and a repeat of his good second to Turnium in the Prix World Citizen (Chase) should see him go close... He gets the selection.
