Dax Race 7 - De L'Hotel De Chievres Stakes

CHACONNE (6) debuted with a 1.5L triumph competing in a 1600m maiden at Lignieres. Selected to follow up representing top connections. ALEXANDER MAXIMUS (3) raced from the front prior to scoring by 0.75L over 1600m at Saint-Cloud making his penultimate start. Rates a major threat despite disappointing at Marseille-Borely subsequently. SENATRICE (5) won twice on the AW before registering a 9L seventh in a 1200m conditions event at La Teste. Strong claims of registering her first turf victory. Having won his only previous attempt at this venue MERLE (1) is capable of better than he demonstrated when 7L eleventh tackling 1400m at Chantilly AW.
