Key Racing TrendsBetting & Favourites: Since the race is restricted to fillies, the betting market can be volatile. Only about a quarter to a third of winners are clear favourites, meaning excellent value can often be found in the top 3-5 horses.Prep Races:

Strong statistical indicators point to fillies who ran in the French 1,000 Guineas (Poule d'Essai des Pouliches) or the Prix Saint-Alary.

Experience & Form: Look for runners with at least 3 career flat runs, 2 flat wins, and prior course form at Chantilly.

Soumi said after the French 1000 to Yan Lerner the trainer of his ride there The Last Dance that he knew that there’d be no beating Diamond Necklace.
He’d ridden her in the Bousaac, came second to AOB’s filly in the Guineas.

She may re oppose here and is lightly raced.

It’ll be interesting to see is the highly touted Guilded Prize takes her chance here after the flop last time out.

The coach, winner of the recent Qatar Prix du Jockey Club 2026, will try to double down in the French classic for 3-year-old fillies over 2100 meters, namely the Prix de Diane Longines. Here are some excerpts from his press statement  where Diamond Necklace and probably Moments of Joy should defend the interests of the Tabor/Smith/Magnier team this Sunday, June 14.

The Ballydoyle trainer speaks first of all with confidence about the candidacy of the probable grand favourite Diamond Necklace:

"Everything has gone perfectly since her victory in the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches. I was very satisfied with her. The plan was always, if everything went well in the Poule, to come here. Everything has been very positive since her last success. I even think she is better on firmer ground."

He quickly came up with the distance extension for the first time from 1600 to 2100 m for his filly, which he approached with optimism: "We have always thought that the 2,100 meters should not be a problem for her. We are never completely certain before trying the experiment, but we always thought that this distance would not be a problem. She is a good filly, very easy to train. She looks a lot like her father, St Mark’s Basilica. When he climbed 2,000 meters, he again crossed a threshold and everything she does is really reminiscent of what he was. The Prix de Diane Longines is obviously a very prestigious race, very important for a filly, and which takes place at Chantilly. It’s a classic race. To win it, you simply have to have a very good filly, that’s what we’ve always thought of Diamond Necklace." Everything is said...

Regarding his likely stablemate starter, Moments of Joy, he said: "In her last race, she competed in the Musidora Stakes, the preparatory race for the Oaks held at York. The rhythm didn’t really work in her favor, but she ran well despite everything. She was therefore naturally a possible candidate for the Epsom Oaks. She had several options: the Epsom Oaks, the Ribblesdale Stakes at Ascot or Chantilly. At the moment, we think she might be heading for the Prix de Diane. We believe that she still has a lot of room for improvement, that the distance should suit her and that she should also like the racetrack. I think she will appreciate fast and very flexible ground. I don’t think she is particularly at ease in heavy ground. She is a filly with a very beautiful action.”

AOB  is looking for a second title in the French Oaks after the success of Joan of Arc in 2021 under Ioritz Mendizabal.

Some might find the below interesting seeing as she’s joint 2nd Fav @ 6/1 7/1

Prix de Diane Longines 2026 - Karl Burke: "We are 90% confident that Evolutionist will hold the distance"

Eight years after the success of Laurens in the Prix de Diane (Gr.1), his hopes are pinned this year on Evolutionist who will have to extend the distance on Sunday at Chantilly.

Since 2018 and the victory of Laurens on the racecourse of the Princes of Condé, the British Karl Burke is part of the small circle of extras coaches in the winners' list of the Prix de Diane (Gr.1). This year, the professional will once again travel from the north of England with Evolutionist, which displays, after the favorite Diamond Necklace, the second highest rating of the event.

Like her eldest in the stable of Karl Burke, Evolutionist is not unknown to French riders and sportsmen. Where Laurens had performed twice in the French races, winning the coveted Prix Saint-Alary (Gr.1), before winning mid-June at Chantilly, Evolutionist made itself known in France on 12 April at Longchamp by taking away the Prix de la Grotte (Gr.3) for his comeback run at 3 years old. Already placed in Group 1 in 2025, she found only True Love to bar her from success in the English 1000 Guineas, at the beginning of May in Newmarket.

Evolutionist and Laurens have in common that they both finished second in the English Guineas. Evolutionist was a very good filly at 2 years old. She didn’t win Group 1 like Laurens, but physically, she really did well during the winter. And above all, she has made very good physical progress since the Guineas.

Shane Foley came up with her on a work on Tuesday. He was very impressed by her. She is getting stronger and stronger. I think it will continue to build up over the course of the season, but it is clearly stronger today than it was in May at Newmarket.

Laurens had run once between the Guineas and the Diane. Evolutionist, on the other hand, took a short break between the two races. She had a difficult race in the Guineas, as one might expect. And she is also physically different from Laurens. Laurens was powerful, very mature. While Evolutionist is still in development and is not a very imposing filly.

Her program was either the Coronation Stakes, on the mile at Royal Ascot, or the Prix de Diane Longines. Given the way she worked yesterday, there is a very slight doubt that we should perhaps have gone to Royal Ascot! But we had made our decision for a while, and we even removed it from the Coronation at the last package.

I slightly regretted it, or let’s say that I wondered if it was really the right decision. But we are committed to the Prix de Diane Longines. We are 90% confident that she will go the distance.

We will mount it a little differently than in the Guineas, in a less offensive way. I’m sure she’ll hold the distance and show some speed at the end.

The favorite Diamond Necklace seems hard to beat, but she will evolve in a different terrain than last time. And above all, in a race, you should never be afraid of only one opponent!"

“She is all class and always does the minimum,” reflected Head. “I wasn't worried seeing her race in last as I think, ultimately, she will have to be ridden like that. It was really, or at least it looked like, a perfect preparation for the [G1] Prix Marcel Boussac. She too, like Nighttime, would not be concerned by softer ground and, hopefully, is a Classic prospect. Let us hope she can make it to a race like the [G1] Prix de Diane next year.”

Habbibi and Evita were close in the Saint Alry, so give the firm so substance. The first and second missed here, Lapothese I’m not sure why but Concorde Agreement wasn’t well.

The fav just outstayed Pink P, she’d ran twice over 1m 3f and been beaten on soft. She’s inbetween a mile and just above.

Alien the form looks solid through the French runners and it could be said that AOB was lucky that the 1st and 2nd from the Prix Saint-Alary didn’t show.

Half a length separated Evita and Habibi there and they’ve finished close today. Concorde Agreement wasn’t well sick so they didn’t declare.
Not sure what happened to the S-A winner Lapoteose?

The second here today (has been beaten twice over 1m3f on soft was just outstayed) she beat Regal Resolve a colt last time out, that had been beaten by Alam who was a nose 5th in the Prix Du Jockey Club.

So the right horses were showing up.

Looked like an ordinary renewal, and a stronger ride on the second would probably have got the favourite beat. Diamond Necklace still unbeaten, but clear limitations. You would have thought the slow early pace should have helped her as well so a disappointing performance.
