Quote ="Carneys Pint"Final bet on the day:
14:40 Auteuil - Katenko @ 11/2 ew. It's the first meeting of the new Paris Spring season at the major track in the Bois De Boulogne. Katenko won three of his four chases at the course in the Autumn and fell on his only other start, he picked up a nice Grade 3 at the end of November on his final start as a 4yo and is up against a few useful horses - most notably his fellow 5yo Kauto Stone who took home the big 4yo Chase last year though this half-brother to Kauto Star will undoubtedly have bigger fish to fry in Paris this season, most notably in the Grand Steeplechase De Paris at the end of May so is likely using this as a prep and will come on for the run and also Tell No One who was a very useful hurdler having raced in age restricted chases in his younger years.'"
3rd - took it up going up the back straight but then dropped back as Quarouso and Oculi went past him approaching the last before staying on again.
Kauto Stone travelled well enough but dropped out in the straight to finish 5th or 6th. He'll improve for the run.
