Nantes Race 3 - Prix De La Saint Valentin - Attele
MOYANO (4) shed the maiden tag at the second attempt securing a 0.25L victory at Machecoul. Selected to follow up racing in a new shoeing combination. MIKADO (8) placed twice prior to fading late running 7L fourth at this circuit. Worth giving close consideration holding strong claims of recording his first win. MUSTANG DU POHOSE (1) demonstrated improvement coming home 7.25L third in the previously mentioned Machecoul race. Rates highly with further improvement expected. MAGIC DIGEO (9) placed third past two starts including when losing out by 9.5L attempting a Vincennes mounted race. One to note returning to a driven contest.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Maximus Du Dome at this track over 3000m in a 3yo colts and gelding handicap on December 7. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Mister Du Loisir at Vincennes over 2200m in a 4yo colts and gelding race on January 30 at $9.90. Nicely placed to take this out.
