Cholet Race 7 - Des Lauriers Hurdle
MANAMORY (9) debuted with a promising 6L third contesting a 3500m event at Moulins. Selected to break her maiden at the second attempt. MACALO DE GREZ (1) managed to take a significant step forward running 0.75L second in a 3700m contest at Le Lion-d'Angers making his first appearance of the year. Expected to play a leading role. Unraced Telecaster gelding MICKEL ANGE (2) is a half-brother to the stables winning debutant Nina d'Ange. Strong claims of making the perfect start to his career. Stablemate MAFOLIE D'AIRY (8) is a daughter of Masked Marvel out of a mare who won tackling hurdles and fences. One to note.

Third-up today. First-up ran last at Compiegne on April 21 over 3600m, slow track; 51 len behind Illyadame with 67kg at $59. Second run from a spell raced on the pace then finished third of 12 starters at Moulins on May 25 over 3500m, slow track; 16 len behind Le Professionnel with 67.5kg. Safely held latest but looks suited here and worth considering.

Racing second-up today. Fresh up after four months won by a head Corlay on June 7 over 3100m defeating Meleagrine with 64.5kg. Previously second-up pulled up at Pau on January 30 over 3500m. Inform, but this a much tougher race than last outing. Prepared to watch this time.
