Sandown, Friday, July 1: The Summer Festival at Sandown begins today with a seven-race program centered on three Listed trials. Over the middle distance is the Gala Stakes (5th race/5.05pm/52,000 pounds/2000m). Addeybb (Tom Marquand), worth around four million euros, could record his first success of the season after finishing a good third here in the Brigadier Gerard Stakes (Group 3). Among his fiercest pursuers are Harrovian (James Doyle), Regal Reality (Ryan Moore) and Foxes Tales (David Probert), who currently finished third, fourth and sixth in the Wolferton Stakes (Listed race) during Royal Ascot. Passion And Glory (Hollie Doyle) has not been on the course since finishing fifth in the Dubai Gold Cup (Group 2), but should come to the start well prepared. Soto Sizzler (William Buick) may fancy his chances with a handicap finish.

Grand Prix of Lotto Hamburg kicks off the final weekend
Hamburg, Friday, July 01 - Also the third day of the Derby meeting in Hamburg-Horn offers first-class sport, because on Friday there are not only twelve races between 11:35 a.m. and 5:35 p.m., but also again a group highlight: The Grand Prix of Lotto Hamburg (Group III, 55,000 Euros, 1,200 m) is all about the class flyers.
First choice seems to be Waldersee (E. Pedroza), trained by Andreas Wöhler, who showed his best side at List level in Hanover and finished fourth here last year. His training companion Danelo (J. Bojko) has recently shown good improvement and can be expected to make this jump. Best Flying (M. Seidl) should continue last year`s performance as a two-year-old and the hit in auction races in Dresden. Of the guests, the Norwegian double winner Could Be King (C. Lopez) could be the most interesting.
The first three races are also part of the PMU card. An Equalizer II over 2,200 meters deserves much attention. Panjari (E. Pedroza) looks to continue on his way up.
The four-race bet with a payout of 10,000 euros each will be offered in the 7th race (Equalizer IV, 2,800 meters) and in the 12th race (Equalizer IV, 1,400 meters).
Young riders in the Prix Jean Paul Fairand
Paris-Vincennes, Friday, July 1: With horses in the prize category up to 650,000 euros, the Prix Jean Paul Fairand (7th race/22.11 p.m./90,000 euros/2200 m) will be decided today in Vincennes. In the saddle of the nine participants sit without exception young riders. Florida Sport (Noe Perron), who won impressively during the Elitloppet meeting in Solvalla, is on the verge of another success, but to do so he will have to get rid of Chalimar de Guez (Alan Gendrot), who recently finished second in the Prix Paul Delanoe (Group 3). Fulton (Matilde Herleiksplass) runs his best races under saddle. In the Prix Roger Ledoyen (Group 3), however, the seven-year-old did not get around the course smoothly and finished well behind Chalimar de Guez and Carioca de Lou (Thomas Roullier), who was better than Egao Jenilou (Leo Balu) in the Prix Perseus (Course A). Caban Prior (Alexandre Bodin) runs reliably to the front and is long overdue for the win.
