      Verdict

      SIMCA MILLE notched-up a hat-trick before showing further improvement with a neck defeat in the Group 1 Grand Prix de Paris here with L’Astronome back in fifth. Stephane Wattel’s colt should go close again with a similar effort. Recent Listed winner Lassaut is preferred to True Testament while the Ballydoyle colt Aikhal has disappointed either side of winning a Group 3 at the Curragh. Do Deuce has won at the highest level in Japan and trainer Yasuo Tomomichi has won this race in the past.
