Strong two-year-olds in Marseille

Marseille-Borely, Monday, 24 October: Eight promising two-year-olds will contest today`s Prix Delahante in Marseille (3rd race/13.05 h/60,000 Euro/1700 m), which is part of the Listed class. The Nicolas Perret-trained Harry Way (Stephane Pasquier) won his second race here three weeks ago and must not be missed in any consideration.

He has priority to beat Hayejohn (Tony Piccone), who was recently overmatched at Group 3 level but before that won a Listed race clearly in his favour. Of the three contenders saddled by Patrice Cottier, Horizon Dore (Marvin Grandin) and Pacific Boy (Mickael Barzalona) deserve increased notice after their two debut successes. Cambronne (Theo Bachelot) has yet to make amends for his recent disappointing run in Lyon. Bolivie (Anthony Crastus) also fell short in Toulouse. The unbeaten Una Stode (Guillaume Millet) and Mquise de Maintenon (Simon Planque) are two other horses in good form with chances of winning.
