German runners in France today

Main event in France today is the Prix de Guiche at 15.25 at Chantilly for 3yo colts over 1800 metres. This looks quite open, but the Aga Khan´s Sadiri (Alain de Royer-Dupre/ Christophe Soumillon) and the Wildenstein´s Vesuve (Elie Lellouche/ Antony Crastus) probably have the best chances. There are no German runners in this race, but several on the undercard here. The smart handicapper Zadounevees (Waldemar Himmel( Dominique Boeuf) lines up under top-weight in the tierce handicap over 3000 metres at 13.50, together with Asterio (Norbert Sauer/ Henk Grewe). Sauer and Grewe also team up with Event Dash in the 3yo claimer over 1800 metres at 17.00. Nanigata (Werner Baltromei/ Boeuf) runs in the race for mares at 14.25 over 1900 metres, while Song of Tiger (Baltromei/ Fertillet) and Kalawa (Himmel/ Oliver Schnackenberg) run in the mile claiming race for gentleman riders at 16.25.
