Oisin Murphy not riding Evade at longchamp

Monsieur Fabre chooses the jockeys for his horses. If the owners don't like it they can take them elsewhere.

Evade was given an interesting ride last time behind today's favourite Beauvatier.  Was purposely slowly away and took a little time to settle and eventually finished second a length behind the winner.  Today's race should be run at a better pace and Beauvatier might find himself tested in a battle for the first time. 16/1 4 places a Fabre horse, Barzalona has ridden 3 of the last 4 winners of thia race.

I usually avoid hard pullers but the price was tempting with reason to think he might be more tractable today. But, like you say, more good races to come.
