Marseille Vivaux Race 3

Cordoba Mdn Stakes - Awt

Prize Money: $31,169

HOUBLON (2) ended his two-year-old campaign with a 3L second to a subsequent winner in a 1600m maiden at Chantilly AW. Selected to go one better making his first start for a new trainer. PERSIANROMY (5) is expected to deliver a big effort dropping in distance following a 3.5L fourth attempting a 2600m handicap at this circuit. Delivering his initial AW outing since debuting at Pau in January is SKALI (3) who gets a chance to shine following a 6.75L sixth contesting a 2600m maiden at this track. Unraced Victor Ludorum filly HAREMOTION (8) is a stablemate of the main selection. Notable chance with a tongue tie worn for her debut.
