Norniz Stakes

Prize Money: $32,787

Muntaser Al Khalediah colt ELJAS DU BIENN (1) debuted with a 2.5L success racing from the front in a 1500m event at Tarbes. Looks capable of completing a double. Azadi colt ALKRAR (5) is a half-brother to multiple G1 winning mare Lady Princess. Expected to challenge for the win on her first start. MIMOSA STAR (3) debuted with a promising 5L fourth contesting a 1600m event at Bordeaux. Strong prospects with a step forward expected. Nieshan colt NYX DE FAUST (2) showed promise debuting with a 12L fifth competing over 1400m at Bordeaux. Notable contender where improvement is likely up in distance.

Getting off the mark on debut; favourite; won by 2.5 len at Tarbes April 17 over 1500m in soft going defeating Chic Hasard with 56kg at $3.60. Drawn perfectly and he is a top chance.

At debut, second last in a small field at Bordeaux on March 27 over 1400m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Urgence carrying 58kg at $11. Gets a pass-mark after that debut and can go on with it.

Jumped at big odds at debut, 4th of 7 at Bordeaux on May 5 over 1600m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Nehmo De Carrere carrying 54.5kg at $35. Fair effort on debut but may need more racing.
