Nantes Race 1 - Hubert Hardy Hurdle
MISSIS SURF (3) broke through for her first win in registering a neck success in a 3550m hurdle at Fontainebleau. Selected to complete a double. CORTINA DU BERLAIS (5) debuted with a 0.75L second over 3600m at Saint-Brieuc. Expected to deliver a big effort. MR NOBODY (4) has been off the track since finishing 5.75L fifth contesting a 3700m steeplechase at Clairefontaine in August last year. Danger to all with a tongue tie applied for the first time. ABONDENSE (10) debuted with a 6L second over 3500m at Dax. Claims despite fading in finishing 60L seventh competing at a higher level at Auteuil subsequently.

Useful gelding. Last run lost his rider at Saumur on November 1 over 4100m. Before that lost his rider at Moulins on September 18 over 3700m. Sure to improve again. Can bounce back and comes into calculations.

Third race start today. When well supported at debut, finished third of 9 starters at Saint-Malo on September 27 over 3900m, 2.5 len behind Eneko Aritza carrying 64kg at $11.90. Second-up favourite; came from midfield and won by a long-neck Fontainebleau on October 12 over 3550m slow track defeating Luna Nostra carrying 64kg at $3.30 in a hurdle. Forward showing expected. Ideally placed to keep the ball rolling.
