Le Lion Dangers Race 3 - Paul Cochard Cross Country Chase

LYRICAL STAR (6) suffered a 2.5L defeat placing second in a 4250m event at Durtal. Selected to go one better and record her first cross-country race success. ROYAL PALOMA (3) showed up well prior to fading when 31L eighth over 4500m at Nancy. Bold show expected with a top jockey booked to ride. LE MAGNIFICO (4) lost out by 0.75L placing second contesting a 4100m event at Pau on his penultimate start. Dangerous making his first appearance since pulling up at the same venue the following month.
