German runners in France today

This afternoon´s card at Maisons-Laffitte obviously cannot compare to last night´s star-studded Longchamp programme, but there is the chance of another German victory in the mile claiming race for 5yo´s and up at 16.10, which is contested by Pavel Vovcenko´s Naranja (Thierry Thulliez) and Erika Mäder´s Festspiel (Johan Victoire). Both should go well, and the main danger could come from Urs Suter´s La Demoiselle, whose rider Maxime Guyon celebrated the first Group One victory of his career yesterday.

Betting forecast:
1. Race: Danseur Russe - Vaziristan - Balajo
2. Race: Sainte Adresse - Lungwa - Lavetoria
3. Race: Belle Chasse - Adrar - Blue And Gold
4. Race: Lisselan Courtesan - Szerelem - Easy Target
5. Race: Karsch - Naranja - Shake Hands
6. Race: Gemo Magusta - Soriniere Du Lac - Brown Island
7. Race: To Green - Grazela - Guanaderia
