BIG FRENCH CLASSIC
GRAND PRIX DE PARIS
(Received 29th June, 2 p.m.) LONDON, 27th June. At Longchamp (France) to-day the ■ following was the result of the big three-year-old classic: —■ GEAND PRIX DE PARIS, of 800,000 francs. For three-year-olds. One mile, seven furlongs. 1 Comte de Eivaud's eh c Barneveldt, ■ The Winter King—Black Domino ............. 1 Baron E. de Rothschild's bo Toxodium ...................... 2 . M. Marcel Boussae's be Tourbillonj Ksar—Durban , 8 1 Thirteen started. Won by a -head, half ' a length between second and third. ■ . Most recent report to hand (21st ■ May) shows that Barnevoldt shared ; with the filly, Brulette, the post of early 1 favouritism for the Grand Prix. Up till ; that date, as a three-year-old, Barne--1 veldt had won the Prix Miss Gladiator and the Prix Daru, and Brulette had ' scored a remarkably easy victory in the 1 Prix Penelope. Subsequently Brulette i captured the English Oaks at JBpsom 1 on sth June, beating the One Thousand ■ Guineas winner, Four Course. Banje- ■ veldt, though bred in France, is typic- ■ ally British in origin, as he claims The Winter King, who was by Son-in-Law 1 from the Derby winner,' Signorinetta, as his sire, and is from Black Domino ;(a half-sister to Dominion and , Phanarite), by the St. Leger winner, Black Jester, from Osyrua, by Desmond. Black Domino was sold, for .export to France, at the December sales of 1923 for 400 1 .guineas.
