Hardly a huge distance to travel. 4 hours from Cambridge - less from anywhere else. I think you'll find the reason for the 3 week gap is historical rather than trainer inspired. Part of my point entirely. Another two weeks gives options. We now have 3 yr olds racing over 1400m first up in black type and still having to back up 2 weeks later. -

Monday, Deauville, France, post time: 15:40, DARLEY PRIX DES RESERVOIRS-G3, €73,200, 2yo, f, 8fT Field: Kiss Melody (Ire) (Almanzor {Fr}), Miuccia (Ire) (Starspangledbanner {Aus}), Society Princesse (Fr) (Persian King {Ire}), Rhiyanna (Fr) (Elarqam {GB}), Shahbanu (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Waiting For You (GB) (Bated Breath {GB}), Lyrics Of Life (GB) (Pinatubo {Ire}). TDN Analysis: This contest was won last term by subsequent G1 Prix de Diane heroine Gezora and the dual stakes-placed Waiting For You and undefeated dual winner Shahbanu are the leading lights in this year's renewal. Kiss Melody, Miuccia and Rhiyanna all boast winning form, while the Brian Meehan-trained three-race maiden Lyrics Of Life is a notable entry from Britain. Society Princesse has a length to find with Kiss Melody and completes the line-up. [Sean Cronin]. Monday, Deauville, France, post time: 14:30, CRITERIUM DE VITESSE-Listed, €54,900, 2yo, 5 1/2fT Field: Go Ken Go (Fr) (Goken {Fr}), Kimi Rey (GB) (Kingman {GB}), Solana Rose (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Igetakickoutofyou (Ire) (Bungle Inthejungle {GB}), Hold My Hand (Fr) (Threat {Ire}), Pearl Fortune (Ire) (Blue Point {Ire}), Jeudixx (Fr) (Hello Youmzain {Fr}), Ceramic (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}), Sonatine (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}). TDN Analysis: Kimi Rey had Jeudixx and Go Ken Go in arrears when notching a three-length triumph in July's Listed Prix Yacowlef over the straight five here and holds the key in this first start since. Her main threats are G2 Prix du Calvados fourth and G3 Prix Eclipse runner-up Ceramic and Listed Prix des Reves d'Or second Hold My Hand. David O'Meara trainee Solana Rose, last seen running fifth in Ayr's G3 Firth of Clyde, holds solid claims, as does fellow British raider Pearl Fortune, who finished a close-up fourth in last month's Listed Harry Rosebery at the same venue. [Sean Cronin]. Monday, Deauville, France, post time: 16:50, PRIX VULCAIN-Listed, €50,300, 3yo, 12 1/2fT Field: Allure (Fr) (Persian King {Ire}), Aegean Prince (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), Military Air (GB) (Frankel {GB}), Viking Invasion (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Master Cath (Fr) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}), Waldnebel (Ger) (Reliable Man {GB}), Ankara (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}), Karla Jet (GB) (Le Havre {Ire}), Walleah (Fr) (Doctor Dino {Fr}), Three Pearls (Fr) (Intello {Ger}). TDN Analysis: With black-type opportunities dwindling as the season drifts towards the winter recess, Godolphin's Aegean Prince heads to France coming back off an impressive eight-length tally at Ascot earlier in the month, his first appearance since winning on the Kempton Polytrack last December. Threats include Chevotel Racing's unbeaten winner-of-two Karla Jet and the consistent G1 Deutsches Derby eighth Waldnebel, who has registered two runner-up finishes in three Listed outings since that Hamburg Classic. Allure, Military Air and Three Pearls have all placed at stakes level and should not be discounted. [Sean Cronin]. Tuesday, Curragh, post time: 15:17, STAFFORDSTOWN STUD STAKES-G3, €36,000, 2yo, f, 8fT Field: Cameo (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), Caught U Sleeping (Ire) (Cotai Glory {GB}), Ice Dancer (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), Ifweonlyhavelove (Fr) (Recoletos {Fr}), La Fogata (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Stars Will Shine (Ire) (Starman {GB}), Sugar Island (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), Thundering On (GB) (Frankel {GB}). TDN Analysis: Without the customary Ballydoyle standout, this is wide-open and could go to one of the unexposed maiden winners. Stars Will Shine impressed at Down Royal and may have more upside than stablemate Caught U Sleeping despite that runner having been third to Diamond Necklace in the Listed Ingabelle Stakes last month. Thundering On is of intrigue, bypassing the many maidens on offer at the moment which shows what Joseph O'Brien thinks of Shapoor Mistry's homebred daughter of his star mare Thundering Nights.

The betting public wagered that the Anoakia Stakes would be a return to winning form for Himika (Curlin), and she gave them no reason to worry in the lane as she powered home with ears pricked. A stylish victress at first-asking June 12 at this venue, the newly minted 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' was asked to take on graded company in her second lifetime start, and she passed that test with grace to land the GIII Sorrento Stakes by over four lengths. From there, she ran an even fourth in the GI Del Mar Debutante Stakes two back Sept. 6 and faded to fifth last out Oct. 4 when trying two-turns for the first time in the GII Oak Leaf Stakes. She was beaten by well-regarded stablemates on both of those occasions, namely the Natalie Baffert-owned Bottle of Rouge (Vino Rosso) and fellow 'Rising Start' Explora (Blame), respectively. Given 1-2 favoritism to turn her form around here, Himika watched the race unfold from just off the flank of Revera (Lexitonian) as that one set a contested pace through :22.55 and a half in :45.65. Briefly overtaking that leader at the quarter pole, she kicked clear coming off the bend and sailed home as a wrapped-up winner by 4 1/4 lengths. Revera held on to second as Stuffy Mist (Maximus Mischief) ambled in from last to claim third. “She was probably running faster last time going long,” said Bob Baffert. “She was in a good spot, had a great post and she was manageable to rate like, so I felt pretty confident. You just don't know how much that last race took out of her, but it looks like it didn't take a lot out of her.” “I was happy that she is back to winning form. She basically told us, no two turns for now but maybe down the road. Maybe something like the Test. You know, I think she is that kind of filly. Right now, we are just thinking about next weekend, the Tokyo City Cup. We go week by week, like Belichick.” Himika is the first to the races for Saratoga track-record setter Motivated Seller, who finished off the board only once in her career when she faded to ninth in the GI La Brea Stakes in 2020. Since this victress, the mare has produced a yearling filly by Complexity as well as a 2025 colt by Jack Christopher. She visited McKinzie for 2026.

Quite a number and don't forget the travelling factor also. As for trials, they keep getting called off.
