Produced a fine effort on debut 11 days ago, coming 2nd of 8 in a 2450m Caen Class D. Will have progressed for the run and is not incapable of getting her nose in front

Made up for debut sanction when 2nd of 7 finishers in a Class D over course and distance on 13 September. Has had time to freshen up and, while not a priority, is still good enough to make first 5

Race Overview
After having qualified in fine fashion during the summer, MARION D'ATOUT (12) made short work of her debut last week and if still on the boil, can make her Vincennes debut a winning one. David Thomain will still be keeping a watchful eye on the promising MIDWAY LADY (10) for whom Alexandre Abrivard has been drafted in, and MARALE SIBEY (8) who also made no bones about winning at the first time of asking. MAESTRIA GALAA (6) showed considerable potential on her recent debut and Yoann Lebourgeois will have a reasonable chance of getting her off the mark.
