Vichy Race 5

Verdalle Stakes

Prize Money: $19,508

BLACK DU MORVAN (4) has performed well in both starts to date including in placing a head second over 2850m at Sable-sur-Sarthe. Selected to break through for her first win. Robin Of Navan gelding DAHMAN (6) is a half-brother to multiple winner Demoiselle Kap. Bold show expected on debut. Telecaster filly MEETA (8) is a half-sister to winners Montserrat and Swing The Ring. Shortlisted debuting for good connections. MYRIA DE BERCE (7) showed ability in placing second over hurdles at Bordeaux on debut. Of note despite disappointing in a 3400m flat maiden at Moulins on her first start of the year.

Lining up for just third start. At long odds at debut, got back early 8th of 11 at Moulins on April 9 over 3400m, on a slow track; 44 len behind Queen Laurie with 54.5kg at $30. Second-up second last of 14 at Le Mans on April 21 over 3200m, 29 len behind Never Risk with 55kg at $123. Likely to find this a bit tough.
