I was gonna list all 4 races but here's the link instead cause there is so much good stuff...

Wow R1,the Class 3 Paris H, is a really nice field. Little Cow, Affluance of Rain, etc. Very nice

The Peak in R6 is a nice one to keep an eye on too (not to bet... no odds but good horse).

Good luck to 9 year old Jamesina (in R3, the Tokyo H.) who loves being 9th (can we bet this?). He hasn't won since his three in a row back in 2009.

Race 9 is like the field of heartbreak. Poor Beauty Flash needs to call it a day, Penglai Xianzi should have been sooo good by now,good old Fay Fay and Able Speed, Fair Trade... very nice field of horses who just didn't live up to their potential.
