La Teste De Buch Race 2 - Prix Theault Stakes
ALHAMA RIVER (1) Honest race when 3rd last run at Dax and promising career start. Has early speed and positions nicely. Good to see jockey Jb Eyquem is jumping on. Warrants a bet. MR LOPE CEN (3) Ran well when 3rd last start at this track and putting a tidy record together. Should race on the speed. Worth an investment. NEW CONNECTION (2) Tailed off to finish 29th last run at Ascot but has a positive draw. Shows good closing speed. Fh Graffard (S) stable are on fire recently. Keep an eye on the market for any leads. ZANINA (4) Mediocre attempt when 9th last start at Le Lion Dangers but has a nice advantage with a good draw. Change in trainer and gets a reduction in weight. Good place bet.

Comes off a 48 day let-up. At the latest run ran second last of 30 at Ascot BRITANNIA STAKES on June 18 over 1609m, 18 len behind Moonfall carrying 57.5kg at $67. The start before that 4th in a small field at Longchamp on April 23 over 2150m, 3 len behind Chamali with 57kg at $3.70. Capable of more – worth another chance.

Second run back. First-up after three months 3rd in a small field at this track on July 15 over 1600m, 2 len behind Saint Arnoult carrying 57.5kg at $3.20. Previously second-up 2nd in a small field at Longchamp on April 16 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Mijas carrying 57kg at $2.10. Strips fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
