Chantilly Race 2 - Prix Saraca Listed Stakes
ZEN POETRY (1) built on two good second place finishes securing a 1.75L victory in a 1400m maiden at Saint-Cloud. Taken to complete a double stepping up in class. EVENEMENTIELLE (6) broke her maiden at the second attempt registering a 1.25L victory racing from the front trying 1600m at Chantilly. Leading contender dropping in trip. HINATA GREY (4) enters calculations following a 7.25L fourth in the G2 Prix du Calvados over this distance at Deauville. DREAM OF GLORY (3) followed up a handicap triumph at Deauville with a 0.75L fourth contesting a 1200m conditions race at Saint-Cloud. One worth noting.

Recent form sound. Returns from a 29-day let-up. Last start won by 1.75 len at Saint-Cloud on September 11 over 1400m defeating Numeri Hooves with 58kg at $1.90. The run before that 2nd of 7 at Deauville on August 9 over 1400m, head behind The Highlight carrying 58.5kg at $1.60. Going well and looks hard to beat again here.
