Fairly useful gelding. Second of 6 in minor event (6/10) at Chantilly (8f, soft). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving A. Fabre. Wears tongue strap. Sets a good standard.
Cost 150,000 gns at last year's breeze-ups. Blue Point gelding. Half-brother to 8.6f winner Timespan. Dam, 8.6f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 11f Timepiece. Hooded, fifth of 12 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f, 14/1) on debut 23 days ago, not knocked about. May well do better.
Foaled March 26. Too Darn Hot filly. Dam unraced sister to high-class winner up to 1½m Taghrooda (won Oaks/King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes) out of smart 1m-1¾m winner Ezima. 9/2, third of 11 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut, not knocked about. Off 131 days. Should improve.
ROMIEU's French form sets a good standard on stable debut. despite a stiff penalty, and he's the one to beat. Jenubiyah is likely to take a big step forward from debut though, and Earthwatch is a respected new,comer.
