Marseille Borely Race 1 - Petit Cercle Claiming Stakes
NYMPHENBURG (1) showed up well prior to fading late running 8.25L fourth over 1100m at Tarbes on debut. Selected to break his maiden racing in a tongue tie for the first time. Saxon Warrior filly MELLO MELLO (2) lost out by 0.5L recording a fourth place finish in a course and distance conditions event. Warrants thought as expected to challenge for the win. Sealiway filly STRELLING (4) suffered a 2L defeat delivering a fourth tackling a track and trip event. Rates a major threat. DICANTO (3) came home 6.25L sixth competing over 1200m among claiming company at Saint-Cloud. Worth giving close consideration.

At the latest run 6th of 12 at Saint-Cloud on May 5 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Lady Chnak with 59kg at $6.60. The run before that second last in a small field at this track on April 10 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Azamra with 56.5kg at $5. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.

Raced two times to date. When well in the market at debut, 2nd in a small field at Tarbes on April 17 over 1100m, on a slow track; head behind Come Chope with 56.5kg at $2.20. Second-up 4th of 7 at Bordeaux on May 5 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Belisa Bay with 55kg at $4.70. Not far away in either run and can play a big role.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, 7th of 9 at Lyon-Parilly on March 29 over 900m, on a slow track; 13 len behind Timur carrying 56.5kg at $54. Doubt she will trouble these.
