German victory in Chantilly?

Chantilly, Thursday, 30 March: Eight races are on the programme in Chantilly today. From a German point of view, the sales race Prix de la Fu Madame (4th race/15.35 h/19.000 Euro/1900 m) will be in focus.

Said (Hugo Besnier) from Michael Figge`s stable is one of the outsiders, but he showed talent last year when he won in Munich. Hella Sauer`s Chief Mambo (Mickael Barzalona) only ran behind in a handicap recently, but judging by his triumph in Deauville in October, the almost 80,000 Euro gelding is conceivable in the front. Carmen Bocskai saddled the ex-series winner Morcote (Ambre Molins). Just three weeks ago, he finished last in Deauville, not far behind Royaumont (Ayman Bentahar) and By The Way (Christophe Soumillon). The latter won at Riviera against Not So Silly (Marie Velon), who was clearly better than Baikal (Kobe Vanderbeke) on 3 March. Need You Tonight (Perrine Cheyer) runs reliably to the front and can win at any time.
