Deauville Race 4 - Arqana Series - Criterium D'ete Stakes
MOONDANCE (6) lost out by 0.5L placing second in the 1200m Listed Criterium du Bequet at Mont-de-Marsan. Taken to go one better and double her career tally. BOLT OF BLUE (3) broke his maiden scoring by a nose a 1005m maiden at Pontefract. Expected to deliver a forward showing stepping up in distance. ARALIA (7) failed to shine recording a 10L fourth to a subsequent winner in the 1200m G3 Prix du Bois here. Strong chance of returning to winning ways. MASTER MAN (4) backed up a debut win at Marseille-Borely with a head second racing from the front over 1200m at Chantilly. Holds claims up in trip.

Last start 3rd of 16 at Vichy on July 20 over 1400m, on a slow track; 1.0 len behind Kristolyx carrying 58.5kg at $7.20. The race before that 6th of 10 at Chantilly on June 19 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Soufina carrying 57.5kg at $5.90. Not far away last time but happy enough to avoid.
