Dieppe Race 1 - Franc Picard Hurdle
NANJAYA (8) performed well debuting with a 1.25L second contesting a 3200m newcomers event at this circuit. Selected to break her maiden at the second attempt. NIRVANA DELABRUNIE (2) demonstrated improvement placing 1.5L second to a subsequent winner when racing prominently over 3400m at La Teste on his second start. Expected to play a leading role. A stablemate of the top pick NEWAIN (3) came home 1.25L clear of his nearest rival trying 3500m at Royan. Strong prospects. NINETY ROSES (9) faded late running 10L fourth in a 2350m event at Le Pin-au-Haras making her racecourse debut. One to note switching to hurdles.

At only start last preparation made ground from midfield; ran last at Nottingham on October 23 over 1678m, in the wet; 49 len behind Oratorical carrying 60.5kg at $15. Fitter but prefer to see a return to form.
