Saint Cloud Race 5 - Tourbillon Stakes
SALITOS (3) broke his maiden at the second attempt in scoring by 2.5L in scoring over 2200m at Fontainebleau. Selected to complete a double. TONNANT (1) is expected to deliver a big effort returning to turf following a 0.5L success in a 1900m handicap at Chantilly AW. VAN BLUTCH (2) ended last year with a 0.75L success over a subsequent winner contesting a 1900m conditions event at Bordeaux in October. Strong prospects debuting for a new trainer. Sea The Stars colt AERONEF (5) returned to action with a 0.75L triumph competing in a course and distance maiden. Notable contender for a top stable.

Second run back. First-up after four months won by 0.5 len at Chantilly All Weather March 30 over 1900m defeating Mister Black with 60kg at $5.20. Previously second-up 5th of 8 at this track on September 2 over 1600m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Elastic carrying 58kg at $12. Hard to tip against him on that sort of form. Improver with winning prospects.
