Compiegne Race 1

De L'empereur Napoleon Iii Stakes

Prize Money: $49,296

BENAMIRA (2) represents notable connections. Placed a close-up 1L second on most recent appearance at Angers last month. Can go one better. THROUGH THE FLAMES (5) broke the maiden in impressive style by 4L contesting a 2500m maiden at Evreux. In form jockey Alexis Pouchin takes the ride. Dangerous. RODOYA (3) scored nicely by 0.75L at this venue previously attempting 2400m. Rises in journey for this assignment. Not discounted. STUDY THE LADY (4) ran on well from the rear of the field to win a Dieppe maiden by 2L four weeks back. Can't rule out.
