Clairefontaine Race 2 - Abeille Noire De Normandie - Prix Des Gardenias Stakes
TSAVERNA (1) raced from the front in delivering a 2.5L victory over a subsequent winner competing in a 2400m claiming race at Saint-Cloud. Selected to follow up debuting for a new trainer. ADICTA (4) rates a big threat stepping up markedly in distance on the back of a 0.75L second in a 1600m maiden at La Teste. Victorious three times in the past VICTORIA SECRET (2) lost out by 1L in placing third over this trip at Vittel. Danger to all switched to a claimer. PURPLE RAY (8) put a down the field Dieppe effort behind her in securing a 2.5L sixth contesting a 2200m handicap at the same venue. One to note.

Racing well recently. At the latest run won by 2.5 len at Saint-Cloud July 8 over 2400m defeating Valderrama carrying 56.5kg at $3.90. The start before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at Chantilly on June 19 over 2400m, 5 len behind Mennula carrying 58.5kg at $17. Confidence high so a repeat performance is on the cards.
