Lyon La Soie Race 8 - Perouges Stakes
MAMA STRALIA (6) debuted with an impressive 4L victory racing from off the pace attempting a 2000m maiden at Salon-de-Provence just under a year ago. Selected to return from an absence with a victory. TESTERINE (2) is expected to play a role following an impressive 3.5L triumph in a course and distance conditions race. BOCCA AL LUPO (3) suffered a 3.5L defeat running second in the previously mentioned track and trip event. Shortlist. Galiway gelding LEVER DE RIDEAU (1) is another to consider making his AW debut following a 4.5L fifth tackling a 1700m Class 1 conditions race at Marseille-Borely.

Raced twice to date. At debut, 6th of 9 at Angers on September 21 over 1600m, 6 len behind Shirdihenge with 54.5kg at $9.20. Second-up scored a big 4 len win at Machecoul on October 18 over 1650m in soft going defeating Madzaline carrying 52.5kg. Freshened for this and is a major contender.

Resuming after a lengthy spell. Only one run when won by 4 len at Salon-de-Provence on November 27 over 2000m defeating Bedda Vita with 56kg at $7.80. Happy to overlook in this company.
