Vincennes

With just under half of the field sporting a fresh formula, this should prove a very interesting affair. A case in point, MALANDRINO (10) takes to the main track for the first time, after having imposed at Angers last week and, unshod behind, can double his money. Julien Dubois will be legitimately wary though of the more complicated, and reconfigured, MYSTIC HAUFOR (7) who was not beaten when eliminated here mid-month, and the promising MUST DE LOU (6) who will be both unshod-behind and entrusted to Alexandre Abrivard for the first time. MINIMUM (4) showed marked improvement earlier in the month and must be afforded respect.
