Longchamp Race 4

Prix La Force - Group 3

Stake: $151,986

AZIMPOUR (1) is one-from-one securing a comfortable win in a course and distance maiden during October. Appears to be a top Classic prospect from a leading yard while second and third-placed horses have since scored again. Top chance. DREAMLINER (2) brings the benefit of race fitness. Returned after a five month spell with a second in the Listed Prix Omnium II. Equally strong tackling this trip. CUALIFICAR (4) resumed after a winter break with a front-running success at Saint-Cloud over 2000m. Proven stayer. Interesting stepping up in journey. NEW GROUND (6) will be looking to retain unbeaten record. Good winner at Chantilly last time.

Resuming after a lengthy spell. Only one run when won by 0.8 len at this track October 20 over 1800m on a heavy track defeating Batal Youmzain carrying 58kg at $2. Key chance capable of going on with it.

Second-up. First-up after five months 2nd in a small field at Saint-Cloud in LR on March 16 over 1600m, slow going 2.5 len behind Darius Cen carrying 58kg at $12. Previously second-up won by 10 len at Bordeaux October 1 over 1900m on a rain affected track defeating Blue Seabird carrying 58kg at $1.70. Must respect.

Puts an unbeaten record on the line. Closed last prep favourite; won by 2 len at Lyon-Parilly November 8 over 1600m in soft going defeating Miss Lacouma with 57kg at $1.90. In form and looks a top chance again.

Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, won by 2.5 len at Lyon-la-Soie February 7 over 1800m defeating Bo Daddy carrying 56kg at $3.20. Last start 3rd of 7 at Marseille-Borely on March 19 over 1700m, on a slow track; neck behind Dynamitic carrying 57kg at $10. Not keen on his chances.

Unbeaten two for two. Resumes from a spell. Finished off last preparation winning by long-neck Chantilly October 17 over 1800m on heavy track defeating Good Speed carrying 57kg at $2. At his first start won by head Saint-Cloud September 20 over 2000m defeating Dark Secret with 58kg at $5.90. Others rate better this time.
