A few betting accounts would have been lost last month when we backed Group sprinter O Trasno in an egg and spoon race at Mont-de-Marsan at 100/30.

O Trasno is one of France’s top sprinters and despite being nominated for a Group race at Deauville afterwards, finds himself tonight with a great chance in a conditions race on the polytrack. I think he’s much better than his 44.0 rating and despite needing to find 3.5kg with favourite Fast Raaj on ratings tonight (who’s won three from four on the polytrack), he’s well overpriced at 6-1 to win this.

He will strip fitter for that win last time and is much better around a bend according to his connections, where his career form reads 112721. Being drawn wide at the moment doesn’t seem to be a huge penalty with several winners coming down the middle of the track.

Winwood won a handicap over C&D last time off 40.0 but despite being trained by Andre Fabre, I think O Trasno is the bet.

He’s not run on the polytrack before but I wouldn’t be too concerned given he is trained far from Paris. It’s an added bonus that O Trasno’s trainer has saddled three winners from his last five runners.

7.45pm Deauville – 1.5pt each-way O Trasno @ 6-1 (all firms)
