Form Snapshot: Late developer that was soundly beaten in a Lisieux Class F 10 days ago and in this category has no possible chance
7 17:22 Caen (France) 27 May 2026
Prix De Blonville - Attele (4YO only)
1m 4f 39y Standard
Form Snapshot: Has yet to get off the mark but always gives his best. Held his own at Angers a fortnight ago and is similar form will not be going home empty-handed
Form Snapshot: Took some time to come into himself but has simply thrived since. Gave a good account here recently despite missing the break and will be well-backed to win this
Form Snapshot: Useful type but has better references in the claiming category and is unlikely to set off any fireworks
Form Snapshot: Lost his way late last season and has picked up this term where he left off. Is first-time barefoot but still seems to be out of his league
Form Snapshot: Moves back up in category after running 2nd in a 2675m Class F at Le Mont-Saint-Michel mid-month. Is not a priority but has never disappointed racing clockwise and is unlikely to begin now
Form Snapshot: Opened his 2026 tab at Gournay-en-Bray in March, then ran 3rd in a 2450m Class E here 3.5 weeks ago. Is unlikely to shake things up but is still worth keeping an eye on
Form Snapshot: Has evident ability and won at Amiens last month, but at this level will need to find more
Form Snapshot: Still chasing that elusive maiden victory, and has placed just 3 times in 16 starts. Not a concern
Form Snapshot: Ran 3rd over course and distance on comeback earlier in the season but has been less-productive in 2 since. Top pilot at the helm and will be afforded every chance. Place prospect
Form Snapshot: Capable on a good day but eliminated in both starts this term. Goes first-time barefoot, with his handler reining, and can get a look in if he keeps his action together
Form Snapshot: Strangely lacklustre in a Class E over track and trip a month back but has been re-shod and David Thomain will have redemption on his agenda
Form Snapshot: Not the most reliable but has ample ability which he displayed at Chartres 3 weeks ago. Is not the best horse here but benefits from a superb entry and Franck Nivard will be keen to deliver
Verdict
Well-regarded at home and clearly in fine shape, MY NAME IS FLASH (3) is a class above most here and Yoann Lebourgeois will be keen to prove the point. Oddly below-par here last month after winning 3 on the trot, the well-engaged MAKAO DE REVE D'OR (12) has been reconfigured and represents the main threat. Just 190 Euros from elimination, MATCH LOVE (13) showed his form at Chartres and a similar effort would see him contest another place on the podium. Considerably better than recent results would suggest, MAESTRO BLANC (10) reverts to his Meslay formula and has been entrusted to Alexandre Abrivard for the occasion.
