"There are lots of reasons to be positive about this form in the weeks to come".

Being a gelding should not be a barrier to success and he is definitely worth keeping an eye on in the weeks ahead.

There are a couple of key names to note from the hurdle races at Angers on Sunday

His closing sectionals would suggest that he is a considerably above average type.

Jean-Claude Rouget has made a habit of winning the 3-year-old maidens at Cagnes-Sur-Mer each year...

Whilst everyone else is focussing on the National Hunt season, French Racing fans are treated to an early start to the Flat turf season.

He needs to be supplemented for the race, but there is certainly a case to be made that he will deliver a return on that investment.

As the winter nights get longer, the season at Auteuil is coming to a close, so it's time for a little reflection.

Whilst the shine may have been taken off Il Est Francais this weekend, French Racing would appear to have a ready made replacement in Kaadam

This has been a record year for the list, both in terms of numbers of horses recruited and downloads.....

She at least matched the Colts and Geldings and if she were to repeat that effort next month, she is going to be very hard to beat.

This horse possesses an extreme turn-of-foot and it will be fascinating to see how this form plays out in the coming weeks.

She was an impressive winner of a 3-year-old hurdle at Royan back in August, but since then she has taken her form to an entirely different

Both Losange Bleu and Il Est Francais make their autumnal return at Auteuil on Saturday, here is my summary of what they're up against.

It is hard not to get excited about what he might be able to achieve now that he has begun to mature.

There is really only one place to start with Tuesday's Auteuil preview and that is with the feature race.

I thought it would be worth providing a list of resources that can be used to help with the French form study at this time of year.

She looked very exciting in the Spring and her win in the Listed Prix Girofla in April was one of the best 3-year-old races of the season.

I have created a list below of 5 races from the Spring season that I think are worth some extra attention.
