Marseille Borely Race 4 - Prix Delahante - Pellegrin - Fonds Europeen De L'elevage
WITCHWAY (1) Basic showing when 7th last time at Craon. Has the potential to improve sharply. Hugo Besnier is very comfortable aboard. Tracking very well this preparation. Can measure up to this company. HODAYA (6) Won by a big margin last time at Salon De Provence and has the ideal draw. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Has the ability to take this out. PLEASETOMEETYOU (3) Shot clear to win last run at this track and was on debut last time. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Include in chances. BLACK ARMOR (4) Displayed potential when winning last start at Salon De Provence. Displays good tactical speed. Has not missed the money this campaign in 2 attempts. Solid place bet prospects.

Odds of $3.00 and not competitive when 7th last time at Craon. Has the potential to improve sharply. Jockey Hugo Besnier has been successful before. Gets a chance against these.

Was competitive when 2nd last run at Salon De Provence and has a positive draw. Running with confidence since returning from a spell and putting a tidy record together. Will be tested in this.

Pulled away to win last run at the track and having second race start. Likely to be well placed early. Value runner at good odds.

Handy enough when winning last start at Salon De Provence. Has shown early pace in races to date. Been in the money each attempt this preparation. Looks like solid value.

Was $6.00 and struggled when 8th last start at Craon. Should race on the speed. First race for a new trainer. Hard to have.

Gave nothing else a chance when winning last time at Salon De Provence and has minimal work to do from the draw. Has definite claims.
