Le Mans Race 4 - La Fleche Stakes
BLACK SWAN (2) First up after a break. Landed the spoils when winning last start at Pornichet but back in trip. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Respect. PERSIAN IMP CEN (4) In the money when 2nd last time at Saint Cloud and putting a tidy record together so far. Should come to hand quickly. Will be competitive. LIMPIDE (6) Tidy effort when 2nd last start at Le Croise Laroche but dropping back to a shorter trip. Should muster plenty of early toe. Should go close. PISTOIA (5) Not in contention when 5th last start at Bordeaux Le Bouscat but facing weaker opposition. Worth strong consideration.
