Marseille Vivaux Race 6 - Port De L'eoube Stakes
GRANDPA CEN (6) placed top three in four of his five attempts. Taken to break through for his first win with cheekpieces applied following a 3.75L third over 2300m at Dax. GLAVIA (8) chased home a subsequent winner when 1.5L second in a 2100m claiming race at Marseille-Borely. Expected to play a role. NO LIMITS (2) lost out by a head when runner-up over 2400m in the Czech Oaks at Karlovy Vary on her penultimate outing. Shortlist following a fourth dropping to 2000m at Bratislava subsequently. MUNGASHA (3) failed to shine when last of eight at Marseille-Borely. Improvement expected on his second start back.

Racing second-up today. Freshened for 57 days. Last run second last of 14 at Deauville All Weather on August 12 over 1900m, 25 len behind Thinthread with 56.5kg at $27. At only start last preparation ran last of 14 at Longchamp on May 25 over 2100m, 25 len behind Zingaro with 57kg at $41. Will come on from that run and is well-placed to take this out.

Last start 8th of 10 at Salon-de-Provence on September 13 over 1800m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Thorgalle with 57kg at $7.40. The start before that 5th of 14 at Vichy on August 20 over 1850m, slow going 2.75 len behind Sarastro carrying 56.5kg at $10. Unproven on this surface but deserves another chance.
