Nantes Race 7 - Grande Course De Haies De Nantes Hurdle

CHANCE DE BALLON (3) returned from a break with a 2L success contesting a Class 3 conditions hurdle over this course and distance. Looks capable of completing a double. Saint des Saints gelding SAINT LOUIS BLUES (7) performed well in securing a 6.5L sixth in the 3900m Listed Prix Geny.Com handicap hurdle at Auteuil. Major threat switched to a conditions race. EDITION ORIGINALE (2) gets a chance to shine heading into this race on the back of a 3.75L fourth over 3900m at Bordeaux. ITAL CONTI (1) pulled up in the 4300m G3 Grande Course de Haies de Printemps handicap hurdle at Auteuil. Warrants close consideration.

Having second run back today. Fresh up after four months won by 2 len this track on May 11 over 3900m on rain affected going defeating Hacker Du Berlais with 69kg at $7.20 in a hurdle. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; finished third of 7 runners at Auteuil in the G3 on November 16 over 4400m, 20 len behind Karre D'as with 66kg at $10. Strong chance and expected to feature.

Second-up today. Fresh up after five months finished sixth of 9 runners at Compiegne in the LR on May 4 over 3600m, on slow going 23 len behind Al Fonce with 68kg at $41. Previously second-up won by a long-neck Compiegne on October 20 over 3600m defeating Raffles Cipriani carrying 69kg at $23 in a hurdle. Definite chance. Worth consideration.

First-up. Finished off last preparation 7 of 10 starters at Fontainebleau December 9 over 3600m, slow track; 37 len behind Capitaine Dino with 67kg at $23. When resuming last campaign didn't finish the race at Auteuil October 7 over 3600m. Likely to struggle.
