No favors : Lombok Night
Winner of Prix Albert Viel (Gr. 1), Lombok Night (13) hit the rock Lovino Bello in the 3 Years Criterium. For his semi-return on the occasion of Victor Régis Prizethe champion of Jean-Luc Dersoir returned to victory, while relaxing to finish (maintained after investigation). This Sunday, the son ofEnino du Pommereux et Surabaya jail finds a course more to his liking, the 2700 meters of the main Vincennes track, and will be completely tackled this time.

Watch Lombok Jiel's victory in the Prix Victor Régis on October 25, contested on the 2175 meter course of the main track:
Son principal rival : First of Mind
Lombok Jiel must be wary of Italian First of Mind (14)a colt developed by the formidable Alessandro Gocciadoro. The son of Face Time Bourbon et Peace of Mind (three-time Group 1 winner) won the Derby Italyin Rome, at the expense of Frank Gio (12). In the Grand Prix Orsi Mangelliin Turin, he dominated the winner of the Critérium des 3 Ans, Lovino Belloin the qualifying battery before placing second in the Final, where he made up considerable ground in the straight. His debut at Vincennes must be followed with keen interest.
Relive the coronation of First of Mind in the Italian Derby, October 13 in Rome:
The other challengers: Frank Gio, Loulou de Mye, Luciano Menuet, Lucky Jackson
The runner-up to First of Mind in the Italian Derby, Frank Gio (12)is also there. Not seen since this release, the protégé of Sébastien Guarato has already shone three times on the classic Vincennes course. It will once again be piloted by Matthieu Abrivardwhich could have been at the sulky of Loulou de Mye (10).
Author of a pleasant end of the race (2nd) in the Prix Victor Régis, the resident of Romain Larue is therefore entrusted for the first time to Tony Le Beller. He is one of the candidates for the podium, like Luciano Minuet (11)who still had the advantage at the time of his mistake in the last semi-classic reserved for males of his promotion, and Lucky Jacksonnoticed after his mistake during the reference test.
Les outsiders : Light My Fire, Lemon Tree, Feldenkrais Pal
Disappointing in the Critérium des 3 Ans, the semi-classic placed Light My Fire (3) regained morale in the provinces: he won easily in the Sables-d'Olonne and to Nantes in less valuable lots. For his return to the Parisian ashes, the full brother of Bold Eagle will try to continue its good momentum. Fourth of Count Pierre de Montesson Prize (Gr. 1), Lemon Tree (6) now has three courses in his legs and will present himself tackled with all four feet for the occasion. He can talk about himself again. Second in front First of Mind at Group 2 level in Sweden (Jägersro), the Dutch Feldenkrais Pal (5) then had a series of disqualifications. Wise, he should not be underestimated.
