La Teste De Buch Race 1 - For Ever Maiden Stakes
BRITANIA (14) lost out by a neck when runner-up over 2600m at Marseille-Vivaux. Selected to go one better making turf debut. MOST GLAMOROUS (15) demonstrated improvement when a head second in a 1950m maiden at Le Mans. Expected to play a role. SUNSET ASHRAM (6) came home 5L fourth over 2000m at Pau. Strong claims wearing cheekpieces for the first time. MERLE NOIR (10) enters calculations following a 4.5L third contesting a 1900m maiden at Bordeaux.
