Verdict

Aidan O'Brien has a fine record in this Group 3 and is fancied to garner another success with his upwardly-mobile PIERRE BONNARD who completed a hat-trick last autumn in the Criterium de Saint-Cloud and looks a fine prospect for 2026. The very useful A Boy Named Susie chased him home at Saint-Cloud and again looks set for runner-up spot ahead of James J Braddock and Christmas Day.
