One German runner at Fontainebleau

Matthias Keller´s Skittle is the only German runner in France today. The 4yo filly contests the 3000 metres claiming race at 16.35 at Fontainebleau with William Mongil in the saddle, but she has shown very little so far and needs to improve considerably to figure here. Two ex-Germans in the field of 18 are on the other hand more interesting - Kirov and Girofolo, who both ran well in Salon-de-Provence recently. As the former is badly drawn, preference is for Girofolo.
