Dieppe Race 2 - Metatero Hurdle
BLANC PAIN (2) returned from a break with a creditable 8L third in a 3400m hurdle at Clairefontaine. Leading contender second-up. LE POETE (3) finished 14L fifth on debut tackling a 3400m hurdle at Clairefontaine. Likely to improve and rates a danger. OPTIMUS (9) resumes for a new yard providing first jumps start. Last seen winning a 2900m flat race at Durtal and not ruled out if well-schooled. DRUT (11) faces the starter for the first time. By Triple Threat out of Question Of Mood. Worth a market check.

Three-year-old gelding by Balko out of Chenaie Du Plessis having his first start today. Making race debut here. Tough to line up and betting is likely to provide the best guide.

At debut, finished fifth of 12 runners at Le Lion-d'angers on August 3 over 3000m, 5 len behind Silver Laser carrying 57.5kg at $17. Can improve on that effort. Likely improver going over the jumps this time.

Three-year-old gelding (Triple Threat - Question Of Mood) making his debut. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Likely to be well fancied.
