LONGCHAMP PREVIEW AND TIPS | EXPERT TIPS | SATURDAY OCTOBER 4TH 2025
TRACK: Very Soft (akin to Aus heavy 8)
Longchamp should play the way it traditionally has: wet and on-pace. There looked a chance of good to soft ground until a biblical deluge arrived and quite literally put a dampener on it.
7. Tennessee Stud
3. Emit
4. Espoir Avenir
2. Native Irish
Betting Strategy
BACK: 7. Tennessee Stud (WIN) for 4 units (Rated at $2.25)
Tennessee Stud campaigned in France at the end of his 2yo season and came away a G1 Criterium winner. It came down to a test of stamina on heavy ground against a weak field and this race shapes the exact same way, having shown he likely wants further than the 12 furlong trips he has been contesting. While the Epsom and Irish Derby form has taken a battering, he was the longest-striding horse in those races which profiles him as the likeliest to relish this rise in trip to 3000m with proven form on the going.
8. Sacred Spirit
6. Queenstown
5. Coltrane
7. Caballo
Betting Strategy
BACK: 8. Sacred Spirit (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $5.00)
Five of Sacred Spirit’s six wins have come on rain-affected going and that’s what we’re presented with here. It’s a massive ask to step up an extra mile to 4000m but he might just have the scope to improve and deliver the goods having produced two strong wins this prep and seemingly wanting further.
BACK: 6. Queenstown (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $5.00)
Queenstown seems a bit of a one-batter in terms of pace but I think a long, stiff test of stamina on wet ground is the key. 3rd of 30 last week, the quick backup means there’s rock hard fitness which might catch a few of these out who can’t handle the brutality of the Cadran on a bog.
Purebred Arabians race. No.
7. Harper
2. Babakool
15. Gilded Dragon
6. Kiaro
Betting Strategy
BACK: 7. Harper (WIN & PLACE) for 1 unit (Rated at $5.00)
Harper is a wet track Longchamp specialist and has finished in the top three 9 times from 10 starts here. The rain arriving means he is once more a good each way play.
BACK: 7. Harper (PLACE) for 1 unit
Harper is a wet track Longchamp specialist and has finished in the top three 9 times from 10 starts here. The rain arriving means he is once more a good each way play.
13. Isaac Newton
15. Cape Orator
1. Evanesco
11. River Card
Betting Strategy
BACK: 13. Isaac Newton (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $2.50)
The wide gate means there’s a bit of a price for Isaac Newton who could be a genuine star. This is a restricted sales race so the depth is lacking, the main issue will be traffic/wide trip. If he’s able to slot in handily he may just steamroll this field.
4. Quddwah
6. Alcantor
3. Zabiari
8. Dreamliner
Betting Strategy
Really tough race. Any one of 7 could win this. Sit out.
7. Rabbit’s Foot
10. Consent
3. Latakia
9. Bedtime Story
Betting Strategy
BACK: 7. Rabbit’s Foot (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $9.00)
Rabbit’s Foot is seemingly the only horse in the race with credentials that match the possibility of heavy going. She has been battling on okay on good to soft ground her past few runs behind some of these much shorter in the market. Returning to much heavier ground like when she bolted up at Toulouse it could see a reversal of the form in a big way.
BACK: 10. Consent (WIN) for 1 unit
She may not win another race until the jockey is upgraded, but she’s still an exciting staying prospect who is a realistic chance of winning this. Her past two runs were not exactly brimming with tactical brilliance but she was staying on stoutly. Pedigree says she’ll enjoy the ground.
5. Swagman
2. Bright Picture
1. First Look
8. Bay City Roller
Betting Strategy
BACK: 5. Swagman (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $7.00)
Swagman could bounce back in a big way if he takes to the softer ground. He looked top class earlier this season when beating the likes of Damysus but unfortunately suffered a setback. I’m forgiving of the fresh run when beaten a long way owing to a lack of fitness. A repeat of his Sandown form wins this with ease.
BACK: 2. Bright Picture (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $5.00)
Bright Picture is a winner, and he’s won five times from seven starts. He hacked up by over 4L last start after a year off and looks suited to the conditions here. Two of the only four horses to finish in front of him in his career thus far were the superstars Economics and Calandagan and that form screams way too good for this.
