Marseille Borely Race 5 - PRIX DE VIEILLE CHAPELLE
LIGHTED GLORY (5) showed plenty of promise here when a close second in a 1700m maiden. Can improve further and rates a top chance. MANO DE DIOS (1) produced a good 1.5L third tackling a Salon-de-Provence 2000m maiden. Consider. SEA THE BEST (6) caught the eye on debut with a promising 1.5L second attempting a Salon-de-Provence 2000m newcomers race. Open to progress and holds claims. COUR BLANCHE (3) is another who went well on debut finishing 3.5L fourth at this venue tackling 1700m. Interesting.

Comes off a 35 day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 9 at Salon-De-Provence on April 8 over 2000m, 1.75 len behind Tessel carrying 58kg at $3.50. The race before that couldn't go on with it; 5th of 11 at Cagnes-Sur-Mer All Weather on February 19 over 2000m, 6 len behind Enola carrying 56.5kg at $3.30. Impressed last start. Right in the mix again.

Third race start. First start failed to make an impression; second last of 14 at Chantilly All Weather on February 7 over 1600m, 14 len behind Laura Trezy carrying 57kg at $33. Went for a break before returning struggled in the run home; second last of 8 at this track on April 29 over 1700m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Force Tranquille with 55.5kg at $51. Unlikely to threaten.

Racing well. Comes here off a 39-day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 8 at this track on April 4 over 1700m, 0.8 len behind Maritot carrying 54.5kg at $2.30. The run before that 2nd of 9 at this track on March 17 over 2000m, nose behind Franky Forever carrying 56.5kg at $3.30. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.

Three-year-old filly first-starter by Panis out of Slipstick. Hard to gauge so let the betting tell the story.

Three-year-old filly first-starter by Affaire Solitaire out of I'm Sensational. Likely to need the run.
