German runners in France today

Saint-Cloud today stages one of the better cards of the year so far in France, with two listed races. Both have only 5 runners and in each case a German-trained runner is likely to be second favourite to a local hotpot. In the Prix Altiplan at 14.35 over a mile Rolling Home (Andreas Wöhler/ Eddie Pedroza), who has won his last 4 races including the Grosser Preis von St.Moritz, gets 3 kilos from CD specialist Gris de Gris, but if the latter is in top form, this is unlikely to be enough. Similarly in the Prix de la Porte de Madrid, Eminem (Norbert Sauer) faces Pouvoir Absolu (Elie Lellouche/ Antony Crastus). The amazing Eminem never runs a bad race, and has won his last 6, including 4 in France; however he has never yet met an opponent as strong as Pouvoir Absolu. The other German runner today is Peter Schiergen´s Thalamon (Andrasch Starke), who also faces tough opposition in the tiercé mile handicap at 15.08, but is not without a chance if at his best.
