Deauville Race 3 - Al Rayyan Cup (Prix Kesberoy) Stakes (Arab Group 1)
ALKRAR (2) Chimed in with a win last run at La Teste De Buch and will find this grade more suitable. Gets a favourable draw. Top prospects. NPEDOR DE BOZOULS (3) Strong performance to win last run at La Teste De Buch and fitter for debut run. First race for a new trainer. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Winning prospect. BALSAM (4) Honest race when 2nd last time at La Teste De Buch and was a debutant last start. Likely to get back in the run. Has drawn to do little work. Solid place bet prospects. ZAHIM (1) Lacked competitiveness when 4th last run at La Teste De Buch but up against weaker rivals. Might have to make up considerable ground. Good place bet.

Puts an unbeaten record on the line. When well in the market on debut, favourite; won by 2 len at La Teste De Buch May 15 over 1600m in soft going defeating Eljas Du Bienn with 55kg at $2.10. Last time out favourite; won by 1.0 len at La Teste De Buch G3 July 11 over 1900m defeating Neuf De Faust with 58.5kg at $1.40. Going well. Big chance again.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; won by 1.3 len at La Teste De Buch July 1 over 2000m defeating Adil carrying 56.5kg at $13.10. Improvement likely.

Was well-supported at debut, 2nd of 15 at La Teste De Buch on July 1 over 2000m, 0.5 len behind Ayla carrying 56.5kg at $3.40. Encouraging effort on debut but this might be too tough.
