Merveille (FR)
Merveille won one of six starts, with three places, and her success came at Vittel in Aug 2026 over 1m2f – 1m4f on good ground. She has raced three times on turf for that win and three times on all-weather without success. The filly was seventh of 11 at Lyon Parilly in Sep 2026 in the Prix Oakland. By Zarak out of an Intello mare, she has shown most promise over middle distances.

Both figures are KTB's own, computed from the archive; no vendor rating enters either. Every run's figure is on its form line below with its grade. Grades measure how much the archive could see, never the merit of the run.
Run style is derived from in-running commentary, which our data provider does not supply for this horse's races.
