FRENCH CHARDONNAY (1) comes here off a break of five-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 4100m at Brno. Looks a winning chance. SIC ET SIMPLICITER (4) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was beaten 88 lengths into eighth over 3500m at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. PATRICIEN (3) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was beaten 58 lengths into seventh over 3500m at this track. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. VINO SUPREMO (5) resumes in a similar race to his only run last prep back on February 25 2024 when second, beaten 1.75 lengths. Lining up today for the first time for trainer Vana Josef Jr. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Solid claims on best form.
