Pau Race 1 - Gerard Sereys Cross Country Chase
Josco du Cayrou colt AGANDJIR (5) made a highly promising debut in placing 0.5L second over 1600m at this venue. Selected to go one better stepping up in distance. KODYAC (4) has placed third in both previous starts including in losing out by 1.5L in a track and trip event. Expected to challenge for the win. BASHEQ (1) placed second twice prior to disappointing in recording a 15L eighth over 1900m at La Teste in April last year. Dangerous racing in blinkers for the first time. HM AL ARABI (7) is another to consider following a 2L fourth debuting in the previously mentioned course and distance race.
