French racing today

There is French racing this afternoon from Maisons-Laffitte (8 flat races) and Chateaubriant (6 flat races, 2 over jumps) and this eveningfrom Vincennes (trotting). Most interesting race is the 1100 metres sprint for 3yos at 15.50 CET at Maisons-Faffitte, in which German interests will be represented by Andreas Wöhler´s Ceodora, who won on her debut last August at Hannover before finishing fourth in the Kronimus-Rennen and then running-up to the smart Overdose in Austria. Another German-bred, Avanguardia (Yves de Nicolay/ Christophe Soumillon),bred by Gestüt Katlshof, could be the main danger.
