German runners in France today

With flat racing in the Paris area finished for the year, attention now switches to the provinces and today´s meeting comes from Lyon. Wolfgang Gülcher has entered his consistent Millefeuille (Olivier Pacais) over the unusual distance of 1000 metres at 13.30, and the international opposition includes Italian hope Ballantynes (Giuseppa Latino/ Davy Bonilla) and German-bred Assam (Yannick Fournand) now trained in Switzerland by Carmen Bocskai. Andreas Trybuhl saddles Grazilla (Ioritz Mendizibal) in the first division of the 2200 metres handicap at 15.05, but this is a very tough race.
