Vichy Race 7 - Prix De Saint Nicolas Des Biefs - Attele
NEC DES PLANS (4) raced on grass in all three previous starts including when coming home 6.25L clear of his nearest rival among Class F company at Royan. Taken to complete a double stepping up in standard. NOBLE SAUTONNE (8) broke his maiden at the second attempt securing a nose victory at Nancy. Expected to deliver another big effort. NAIROBI DE CHENU (5) recorded a 10L third attempting a Class D event at this venue. Must be considered dropping in grade. NEVENE CHALEONAISE (9) recorded her first victory when winning by a nose racing off a 25m handicap on grass at Montier-en-Der. Worth giving close consideration.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Nyaka at this track over 2950m in a 3yo race on June 15 at $33. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind No Limits Quick at this track over 2950m in a 3yo handicap on June 29 at $16.40. Going along well. Top prospects.
