Both of this afternoon’s French Classis, the Poule d’Essai Poulains (French 2000 Guineas) and the fillies’ equivalent, the Poule d’Essai Pouliches, have attracted big fields and both races are tricky puzzles to solve.
Richard Hannon spearheads a five-strong raiding party from the UK and Ireland, and the pick of the quartet is Olympic Glory who landed the Greenham Stakes on his reappearance at Newbury and is worthy of his place at the head of the betting for this Classic.
