Chantilly Race 2 - De La Croix De Pontarme Stakes
LORD CLOVER (2) made the perfect start to his career coming home 6.5L clear of his rivals tackling 1600m on the AW track at this venue. Can maintain his unbeaten record switching to turf. ZADE (1) looks well positioned to deliver a big effort having run 1.5L second competing in a 1600m conditions event on the AW here. WOOTTON CENTURION (6) debuted with a 6L success attempting a newcomers race over the course and distance in September. Must be considered. WADI (4) gets a chance to shine dropping in grade and journey following a 14L sixth in the 2100m Listed Prix Francois Mathet at Saint-Cloud making seasonal debut.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 34-day let-up. Last start 2nd of 7 at Chantilly All Weather on February 27 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Nurlat with 57kg at $2.50. The race before that 3rd in a small field at Deauville All Weather on January 16 over 1300m, 3.5 len behind Kailani carrying 57kg at $1.70. Close to a win. Definitely one to consider.

At the latest run second last of 14 at Saint-Cloud on March 24 over 1600m, 11 len behind Howitzer carrying 58kg at $14. The run before that 4th of 14 at Saint-Cloud on March 5 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Alexander Maximus with 57kg at $33. Plenty of these look to have him covered.

Second run back. First-up after five months struggled in the run home; second last of 7 at Saint-Cloud in LR on March 15 over 2100m, on heavy track; 14 len behind Saint Martin with 58kg at $20. Previously second-up won by 1.5 len at Saint-Cloud October 16 over 1600m on a soft track defeating Roi De La Liberte with 58kg at $3.70. Can do much better this time with the run under his belt.

Resuming from a lengthy break. Only one run when won by 6 len at this track September 20 over 1600m defeating Roi De La Liberte with 58kg at $7.10. Nicely placed to pick up where he left off.
