The Group 2 Prix Eugene Adam takes center stage today at Saint-Cloud racecourse. The feature contest for three-year-olds is scheduled for 15:00 local time with a €130,000 purse pool on the line. The 2,000-meter race, inaugurated in 1893, features a highly select field of four runners preparing for the starting stalls.
The prominent training duo of Andre and Lavinia Fabre completely dominates the entry list by saddling three of the four contenders. Overnight leads their charge alongside stablemates Focus and Baroud. Ridden by Maxime Guyon, Overnight enters the fixture as the stable’s top pick after securing victories in two of his three career starts. He comes into Sunday’s feature fresh off a win in the Listed Prix Ridgeway.
Standing in the way of a Fabre sweep is Pearled Majesty. Trained by M. Delcher Sanchez and partnered with veteran jockey Christophe Soumillon, the colt brings high-level pedigree to the Saint-Cloud turf. Official previews confirm Pearled Majesty as the primary rival for the Group 2 crown. Although he struggled in his previous outing at the French Derby, the colt successfully captured Group 3 honors earlier this year by winning the Prix Noailles.
