Bordeaux Le Bouscat Race 1 - Pmu Plus Maiden Stakes
FLEUR D'ORANGER (10) placed top three at Toulouse both previous starts including recording a 0.5L second over 2000m. Selected to go one better. URBES (5) returned to action finisihing 8.25L fourth competing in a 1900m maiden held on very heavy going at this venue. Expected to deliver a big effort. PURPLE BAY (3) ran 8L sixth contesting a 2400m maiden at Nantes. Strong claims of shedding the maiden tag at the fifth attempt. Frankel colt COLBERT (1) raced from off the pace prior to coming home 6L sixth contesting a 2400m event at Saint-Cloud. Rates a notable chance in what looks an easier event.

Third race start. First start 5th of 12 at this track on October 21 over 1900m, slow going 12 len behind Sport Wood carrying 58kg at $5.50. Went for a break before returning ran on strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 8 at this track on March 10 over 1900m, 8 len behind Micocoulier with 58kg at $5.30. Fitter and looks set to improve sharply.

Third race start today. At very long odds at debut, got back early 10th of 13 at Pau All Weather on February 20 over 2000m, 10 len behind Plutarque carrying 54.5kg at $53. Last start 4th of 12 at Langon-Libourne on April 6 over 2500m, 2.75 len behind Rockonado with 56kg. Thereabouts last time but looks tested.

Raced two times to date. When well in the market at debut, 5th of 9 at Toulouse on March 18 over 2100m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Easy As Pie carrying 58kg at $3.80. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at Toulouse on April 6 over 2000m, slow going 6 len behind Duro with 58kg at $2.70. Key chance expected to feature.

Raced twice to date. At debut, 6th of 9 at Toulouse on March 18 over 2100m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Easy As Pie carrying 56.5kg at $9.40. Last start didn't do much in the run home; 6th of 9 at Toulouse on April 6 over 2000m, slow going 10 len behind Balkadisha carrying 58kg at $18. Unlikely to threaten.
