Kiss Queen due for victory

Lyon, Monday, December 19: Eight races will be run today at the Hippodrome in Lyon-La Soie. A sales race, run as Prix Cinq Cinq (7th race/20.00pm/12,000 euros/2150m), is the target of Waldemar Hickst with Kiss Queen (Aurelien Lemaitre), who is still winless this year despite two very good performances (second in Compiegne and Clairefontaine). She could be threatened by Pink Birthday (Marie Velon), who announced herself emphatically with a third place here in November and could also benefit from the weight advantage, as could Chaam (Ambre Molins) and Fullditch (Manon Germain). Amie Soledad (Thomas Thrullier) is recommended by his win at Longchamp in October. At the last appearance, the gelding ended clearly behind Sibuyu (Tony Piccone), who finished a good third in the handicap.
