Once this weekends meeting at Paris Longchamp is over the attention will quickly move on to the Jumpers again and there were...

Here are the time comparisons for all of the 9 races run at Auteuil on Tuesday, as well as the speed ratings for the hurdles races.

He is likely to be a very short price next time, but I'd need to see him produce a better set of numbers before I would want to get stuck in

In the Spring, only Jigme ran to a rating of 100 or more, but in the last 5-days there have been 7 Juveniles who have all gone beyond him.

This was the fastest 3-year-old hurdle that I have recorded this year.

Isn't it wonderful to have the Racing return at Auteuil? The autumn season gets underway on Friday afternoon.

I have actually had a small bet on this horse to win the Triumph hurdle.

This is an easy case to make. A Juvenile hurdler who has already won a Graded hurdle in France by showing a great attitude.

It's that time of year again. Welcome to the 2023 French Recruits series.

Losing so many good prospects to the UK and Ireland is not ideal, but the assumption that every good French hurdler leaves is clearly wrong.

The chances are fairly slim, but there is always the possibility that we could see a Triumph hurdle contender at Auteuil this weekend.

The best chaser in training, a Triumph hurdle contender and an Old Warrior who is a big price in the feature race, what's not to like?

She is lightly raced over hurdles and I do have a soft spot for Fillies who know how to win races.

I will not be backing him to make a winning Irish debut at Galway on Sunday, but he could be one for next time.

He has a much better record than the 0-4 on his form book page would suggest, including a 2-length 3rd placed finish behind Sel Jem

She has regularly run good time figures and looks a nice prospect for Mares races....

There is a definite edge to understanding the level of form that a horse has reached in France.

Each horse has shown enough in France for their new connections, who are most likely far wiser than me, to decide they are worth buying

The Final piece in this years series that will cover some of the better types who are heading to a British racecourse in the near future.

Willie Mullins has dominated the French Recruits this year, with almost half my list having his name next to them.
