Nantes Race 7 - Mellinet Claiming Stakes
MILENA (5) Ran 5th last run at Les Sables. Can show a better performance this time but will be down in distance. This field suits. DHIGALI (3) Back from break. Sub-standard effort when 8th last time at Dieppe. Looks promising in this race. EKLAIRDEGENY (1) Displayed potential when winning last run at Pau. Solid place bet prospects. MARSIHO (2) Just average when 12th last start at Le Mans but has minimal work to do from the draw. Displays good tactical speed. First start for a new trainer. Not out of this.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming didn't do much in the run home; 10th of 13 at Craon on September 27 over 1300m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Maya Chop carrying 62kg at $6. Second-up ran second last of 13 at Le Mans on October 28 over 1400m, 17 len behind Asherah with 53.5kg at $24.90. Can do a lot better than that last run.
