Find Dominique Cordier’s predictions for the Quinté on Saturday October 5, 2024 at Longchamp, the Qatar Prix de la Place de la Concorde. Departure at 3:15 p.m. 18 starters. Flat. 1,600 meters. Great track. Soft ground. Thoroughbreds aged 3 and over.
Playing the rope is tempting, trusting the 3 year olds too. Rather, we will have to mix and match, the past of this quinté teaching us that this path is the safest. THE 5 Grey Tornado is one of two Pantalls in the race, the other being the top-weight Anthorus. Our favorite loves Longchamp, is in great shape and probably still has a handicap like this in his legs.
The 11 Harry Way is better than what he’s been showing lately. It’s a reliable base at this level. THE 4 State no longer has to prove itself in this category, where it however now operates in fairly prohibitive weight zones. However, he is in good shape and deserves to be retained too. All the lights are green also for the 9 Climate Changewhose last two attempts in this category are promising.
The 13 Blue Brother is a quality 3 year old. Associated with Ronan Thomas, he has not been seen since his victory on the Deauville sands in mid-August. Before that, he had contested the finish on this track, after having experienced many misfortunes in the final phase. As there is no return to his trainer Gianluca Bietolini, we can put our trust in him.
