Dax Race 1 - De La Chalosse Maiden Stakes
Representing a top stable ARMANO (7) recorded a 6.75L sixth over 2600m at Marseille-Borely providing his first start on turf. Taken to break his maiden at the fourth attempt. SAND SWEEPER (4) is expected to challenge on his first appearance since placing 2.5L second competing in a 2000m maiden at Pau in January. Anodin gelding KUMPEL (8) lost out by a head finishing runner-up contesting a 2100m newcomers event at Tarbes. Holds strong claims of going one better. NELSON DREAM (6) recorded a 4L fourth in the previously mentioned Tarbes race. Worth giving close consideration with improvement expected.

Was at long odds at debut, ran last of 7 at Toulouse on April 6 over 2000m, on a slow track; 43 len behind Duro with 56kg at $36. Will need to improve sharply.

Resuming after a spell of three-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign second of 9 at Pau All Weather January 18 over 2000m, 2.5 len behind Tulsa King carrying 58kg at $24. Previously first up; sixth of 9 at Bordeaux November 4 over 1600m, 10 len behind Westminster Coyote carrying 58kg at $44. Certainly one to consider.

At the latest run failed to make an impression; 6th of 9 at Marseille-Borely on April 3 over 2600m, 6 len behind Basquiat with 56.5kg at $2.80. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 at Cagnes-sur-Mer All Weather on February 11 over 2000m, 2.75 len behind Sundara carrying 58kg at $3.10. Looks well placed to break the ice.

Last start held ground to the line 3rd of 9 at Toulouse on April 6 over 2000m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Balkadisha with 58kg at $5.40. Progressing well and is sure to prove hard to beat.
