Bordeaux Le Bouscat Race 5 - Prix Edouard Claverie Hurdle
BE MY BELLA (6) followed up a success at Sable-sur-Sarthe on her hurdling debut with a 4.75L fourth in a 3600m event at Strasbourg. Taken to return to winning ways. MERCATO (2) raced from off the pace prior to placing 8.5L third debuting over 3500m at Pau in December. Expected to deliver a big effort on his return to action. Unraced Battle Of Marengo gelding MAITRE D'OEUVRE (5) is a half-brother to G3 winner Dame de Compagnie. Strong claims of debuting with a win. Cokoriko gelding MASTER SEI (4) is out of a mare who placed over hurdles and fences. Warrants close consideration debuting for a good stable.

Third-up today. First-up won by 1.3 len Sablé-sur-Sarthe on August 30 over 3700m defeating King De Ceres carrying 65kg in a hurdle. Last start finished fourth of 11 runners at Strasbourg on September 13 over 3600m, on slow going 5 len behind Talgat with 68kg at $3.70. Fitter now and making headway every start. Rates strongly.
