Ferland with two List chances

Bordeaux, Thursday, October 6: Youngsters will contest the Grand Critérium (5th race/14.07 p.m./60,000 euros/1600m), run as the Prix du Hong Kong Jockey Club, at Listed level in Bordeaux today. Following the withdrawal of Angelaba, trainer Christophe Ferland has two chances remaining in the race. Precious Sea (Enzo Corallo) won her first two appearances, then expired in the Prix de Condé (Group 3) and did not finish beyond midfield. Today`s task looks solvable. The mare will be helped by Galishko (Antoine Werle), who currently scored his first win in Toulouse at his fourth attempt. Sea The Lady (Gregory Benoist) was only narrowly beaten in the Critérium de l`Ouest (list race). She also has two early career successes to her credit. Showay (Anthony Crastus) made a good figure as list third in Craon in front of Ghrainne (Gary Sanchez). Blue Bayou (Jean-Bernard Eyquem) made two appearances in August, failing to break through at the Group 3 start at Chantilly. Lery (Guillaume Guedj-Gay) is an alternative to the mean with his good forms. Also Kamino (Adeline Merou) and Dabiradja (Alexandre Gavilan) already showed usefulness.
