Compiegne Race 7 - Hippomene Maiden Stakes
LIKE IT OR NOT (1) lost out by 1.5L placing second in a maiden over this distance at Lyon-Parilly. May go one better and shed the maiden tag on the fifth attempt. MARVEL MAX (3) won a hurdle race in 2024 then lost out by 0.5L placing second contesting a 2300m maiden at Montlucon making his flat race debut. Rates a major threat. TOASTMASTER (10) placed 14L third in the 3800m Listed Grand Steeple-Chase des 4 Ans at Cagnes-sur-Mer during January. Strong claims of being a winning flat race debutante. ETERNAL BLESSING (9) placed third twice in the UK last year. One to note after running 8.25L seventh trying 2100m at Senonnes making her initial French outing.
