I’ll make this brief, as the race is off in 20 minutes.

 

I put Vandrimar up at 12-1 on his latest outing at Pau a month ago.  Given plenty to do by his inexperienced conditional jockey, he was nevertheless running a big race in second when unseating at the last.

 

This doesn’t look any stronger, Gabin Meunier is a definite upgrade in the saddle, and the Pacault yard are already on the scoresheet this afternoon.

 

2.22pm Pau – 2pts win, 1pt place Vandrimar @ 16-1 (most firms)
