Marseille Borely Race 3 - P. Puget Maiden Stakes
SANAWARI (2) lost out by 1.5L recording a fourth place finish contesting a 1600m maiden at Bordeaux. Selected to break through for the first win of his career. FAITH IN YOU (4) registered a 3.75L fourth contesting a similar race to this over course and distance. Warrants thought as expected to challenge. LEVER DE RIDEAU (3) was second in all three starts this year including a 3L defeat tackling a track and trip maiden. Must be considered. Debuting for a new trainer NALON RIVER (1) enters calculations making his first appearance since finishing 1.75L fourth over 1900m at Chantilly AW in December.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd of 12 at this track on April 3 over 1700m, 3 len behind Freeze The Moment with 56.5kg at $4.30. The start before that 2nd of 7 at Cagnes-sur-Mer on February 21 over 1500m, 4 len behind Safran Dore with 56.5kg at $4.40. Rates highly on recent form and should be in the finish again.

Recent form sound. At the latest run 4th of 12 at this track on April 3 over 1700m, 4 len behind Freeze The Moment carrying 56.5kg at $4.50. The race before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track on March 18 over 2000m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Damietta with 58kg at $7.80. Good chance to claim maiden success.

Had two starts to date. At long odds at debut, ran last of 10 at Marseille Vivaux on March 4 over 2000m, 8 len behind Space Good with 53kg at $27. Last start 9th of 12 at this track on April 3 over 1700m, 11 len behind Freeze The Moment carrying 56.5kg at $82. Open to plenty of improvement and might sneak into the top three.

Was at long odds at debut, second last of 11 at Salon-de-Provence on April 16 over 1800m, 17 len behind Saint Arnoult with 56.5kg at $49. Don't think she will trouble this field.

Raced twice to date. At very big odds at debut, settled back and ran on when 6th of 9 at this track on March 18 over 2000m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Damietta carrying 56kg at $72. Last start 5th of 12 at this track on April 3 over 1700m, 5.5 len behind Freeze The Moment with 55kg at $58. Can't see her breaking through for the maiden win this time.
