German runners in France today

there could be German winners at both today´s French PMU meetings - Compiegne in the afternoon and Nantes in the early evening.Jean-Pierre Carvalho has his string in good form (two winners yesterday) and runs Silver Lady in the tiercé handicap over 2000 metres at 13.40 CET at Compiegne, and Nabella in the claiming race for 3yo fillies at 16.45 both owned by Stall Lucky Owner and ridden by Mikael Barzalona. We think the former could run well at a big price, but the latter may have to give best to the other German fillies - Viareggia (Werner Baltromei/ Dominique Boeuf) and especially Laudera (Torsten Mundry/ Gaetan Masure). Another interesting runner here is the well-bred Perpignan (Norbert Sauer/ Henk Grewe) in the 1400 metres race for unraced 3yo´s at 14.10.
At Nantes, Uwe Ostmann´s Forthemillionkiss (William Mongil) has a good each-way chance in the listed race over a mile at 17.00. He won a girls´ race last time at Chantilly, and although today´s opposition is much stronger, he should still get involved in the finish. Mongil also partners I Do for Ralf Rohne in a 3yo race over the same distance at 18.30.
