La Teste De Buch Race 3 - Criterium Des Jeunes A 12,5% Stakes
NAUSICAA TROIS (1) made the perfect start to her career in debuting with a narrow victory in a 2100m event at Dax. Selected to follow up for a trainer who does well in these races. CHAMAWAVE (2) is expected to play a leading role on the back of a 1.25L success competing over 2100m at Tarbes. NO LIMIT BLUE (7) debuted with a promising 2.75L third to the top pick over 2100m at Dax. Strong claims of reversing that form to record the first win of his career. Taj Mahal colt ZAJ MAHAL (3) raced from off the pace prior to placing second in the previously mentioned Dax event. Warrants close consideration.

Freshened since claiming her maiden victory on debut; won by a neck at Dax May 1 over 2100m on a rain affected track defeating Zaj Mahal carrying 55.5kg at $6.20. Can keep the ball rolling.

At debut, 2nd of 9 at Dax on May 1 over 2100m, on a slow track; neck behind Nausicaa Trois carrying 56kg at $25. Good effort on debut but this looks a stern test.

First-starter by Paban De France out of Thaa Valley. Tough to line up. Betting the best pointer.

At the latest run 2nd of 12 at Dax on May 18 over 2100m, slow going 1.0 len behind Charmant Da Clodia carrying 57.5kg at $24. The run before that 7th of 10 at Tarbes on April 5 over 2100m, 9 len behind Chamawave with 57.5kg. Making headway. Likely to measure up again.

At debut, 3rd of 9 at Dax on May 1 over 2100m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Nausicaa Trois carrying 53kg at $5.50. Not likely to find this quite as easy as the debut outing.

Was well-supported at debut, 4th of 12 at Dax on May 18 over 2100m, slow going 1.5 len behind Charmant Da Clodia with 51.5kg at $3.40. Encouraging signs on debut but this looks a tough assignment.
