Saint Cloud Race 3 - Prix Pleben Mdn Stakes
Sottsass gelding MAKAN (5) returned from a break managing a 0.5L second tackling 1850m in a maiden at Vichy. Taken to go one better and break his maiden at the fourth attempt. SARENZO (4) is expected to deliver a big effort on the back of a 5.5L fourth to a subsequent winner competing in a 2500m maiden at Argentan. CASABLANCA (6) debuted providing a promising 2.75L fifth over 2000m at Longchamp in June. Strong prospects with improvement expected. Motamarris filly NANCY DES PLACES (7) raced from off the pace prior to finishing 3.75L fourth trying 2200m at Clairefontaine. Claims of securing her first victory.

First-starter by Jimmy Two Times out of Toronada. Prefer to let go without a strong market move.

By Soft Light out of Kapfortuna on debut. Purchased for EUR € 20,000 (Arqana 2025 Summer Sale). Likely to be better for this outing.
