French racing today

a high-class trotting card at Vincennes today, with 4 races carrying prize-money of 110,000 euros, notably the Prix de Belgique at 15.50, the most important trial for the Prix d´Amerique in two weeks time. There is also a mixed meeting at Pau, with 3 flat races, 3 hurdles races, 2 steeplechases and a cross-country. Best race on the card is the Prix Albert de Taillac at 16.05, a hurdles race over 3800 metres in which Tell No One (Guy Cherel/ Cyril Gombeau), who won by 20 lengths here last time, is likely to start a very short-priced favourite.
