Un Mec d’Heripre, one of the favored sprinters in tomorrow’s €200,000, 1609 meter autostart, Gr. I Grand Criterium de Vitesse at Cagnes-sur-Mer, has been scratched (reportedly due to cough and fever) leaving harness racing veteran Timoko as the likely clear choice in wagering.
Others getting early attention are Voltiguer de Myrt, Oasis Bi, Anna Mix, Trebol (Spain) and Pascia’Lest (Italy).
Nevertheless it should be a speedy affair that could result in a third Timoko victory, the 2013 and 2015 winner, for the career winner of almost €3.9 million.
