I-year-olds in the Prix Vindex

Paris-Vincennes, Thursday, 3 March: The introductory Group 3 Prix Vindex (1st race/13.50pm/90,000 Euros/2700m) at Vincennes today is aimed at four-year-olds of domestic origin with a maximum bank balance of 175,000 Euros.

Intouchable (Matthieu Abrivard), who has always finished in a honoured place in the current meeting and is due for victory, will find a suitable task. Inmarosa (Leo Abrivard) also has the best chances. The four-year-old currently won the Prix d`Avignon (Group 3) very confidently against If I Tell You (Jean-Michel Bazire) and Intouchable. In her most recent appearance in the Prix d`Orthez (Group 3) she lost honourably and close behind Instinct d`Am (Gabriele Gelormini) was stuck with reserves. The latter has seen quite different opponents and meets it much easier today. Inexess Bleu (Alexandre Abrivard) would have won the Prix de Mansle (Group 3) by a hair, but in the end it was enough for silver ahead of If I Tell You and Iron Meslois (Alexis Collette), who is recommended by his triumph in the Prix Bellino II (Group 3) against Intouchable, Ikacou des Cinty (Pierre-Yves Verva) and Inmarosa.
