Vincennes Race 1 - Prix De Metz - Attele
ORIGINE CASTELLE (1) Put the head down when winning last start at Cabourg and has minimal work to do from the draw. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Expected to fight out the finish. OUIJA BELLA (2) Won narrowly last time at Enghien and having second career run. Eric Raffin rates highly. Capable of getting into the money. OLDHAM (8) Having first race start for Ph Allaire. Market as guide. OMBRE DU CHOQUEL (4) Game effort to win narrowly last run at Enghien and was a debutant last start. Can't be left out of exotics.

Got the upper hand late when winning last start at Cabourg and drawn beautifully. Recent form of Thierry Duvaldestin is strong. Gains the services of driver Theo Duvaldestin. Very capable of taking this out.

Got the upper hand late when winning last time at Enghien and was on debut last time. Eric Raffin is a strong choice aboard. Good chance of taking this out.
