Angers Race 4 - Robert Lavallee Maiden Stakes
BALLADE EN BARQUE (2) missed by a head on debut over 2500m at Nancy finishing runner-up. Finds a suitable contest to go one better. CORALIA (11) shaped creditably first-up in a 2500m Argentan race when 2.5L third. Warrants consideration. SO GATSBY (6) finished fourth in the aforementioned Argentan event. Capable of reversing form. CLEOPATRE (13) is a three-year-old filly facing the starter for the first time. By Churchill from Best Side. Market check advised.

She is resuming after a three-and-a-half months break. Not seen since she finished last of 15 at Deauville All Weather January 17 over 1900m, 30 len behind Jones carrying 58kg at $140. On debut tenth of 14 at Saint-Cloud November 10 over 1500m, on heavy track; 12 len behind Al Uqda with 57kg at $63. Maybe later.

Third race start. Promising on debut 3rd of 11 at this track on November 18 over 2000m, slow going 1.1 len behind Miss Davier with 56kg at $4.60. Returned from break 8th of 11 at Compiegne on March 4 over 3200m, 24 len behind Former Forest carrying 67kg at $8.30. Will come on from that run and is one of the leading chances.
