Deauville Race 7 - Prix Geoff Lewis (Chmpt Paris Turf Des Apprentis & Jeunes Jockeys) Claiming Stakes
NOBLE APPROACH (2) First up. Chimed in with a win last time at Mont De Marsan and form has been improving over recent runs. Key player. MERVEILLE (3) Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Finished 7th last time at Lyon Parilly. Should bounce back and has been racing in stronger company. Gets some weight relief. Can win. RUE RECAMIER (6) Tidy effort when 3rd last time here. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. T Brebion and Ludovic Gadbin are a strong team. Large claim helps. Right in this. KOMET CHOP (1) Moderate showing when 10th last start at Toulouse but taking on a lower class of opponents. Has early speed and positions nicely. Drawn beautifully. Winnable race.
