Marseille Vivaux Race 8 - Prix Du Clos Guiot Mdn Stakes - Awt
VIOLET LEDUC (1) is racing consistently with five placed efforts past six outings including when third in a maiden at Bordeaux a month ago. Delivers first visit to this track and expected to challenge. KANEWKO (2) aims to turn two placings from three attempts into a win. Finished runner-up behind a subsequent winner in a maiden at Marseille-Borely on most recent appearance. May go one better. KARAMA AL LEITH (5) failed to make the frame since May. Missed top-three when fourth in a handicap at Marseille-Borely previously. Anticipated to be thereabouts. PARDO BAY (3) cannot be dismissed after placing third at Vichy delivering penultimate start.

Racing well recently. Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at Marseille-Borely on October 12 over 1700m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Altostratus with 58kg at $6.60. The race before that 4th of 15 at Saint-Cloud on September 11 over 1400m, 2 len behind Il Magistero with 59kg at $9.70. Sure to be in the thick of things again.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, ran second last of 9 at Vichy on September 22 over 1600m, 15 len behind Killwining carrying 54.5kg at $13.10. Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading ran second last of 10 at Lyon-Parilly on October 6 over 1600m, on a slow track; 13 len behind Charmye carrying 57kg at $39.80. Doubt she will trouble these.

First-starter by Zelzal out of Piquiri. Prefer to let go without a strong market move.

Three-year-old filly (Stellar Mass - Synchrone) making her debut. Should kick off on the right note.
