Craon Race 9

Prix Hegler (Prix Des Bumpers) Stakes

Prize Money: $16,557

With limited form on offer a market check could prove helpful. KEEP IT SIMPLE (8) profiles well on paper being a three-year-old gelding by Doctor Dino from the stakes-winner Kalmia. Represents an in-form yard. Makes plenty of appeal. SAYMARA (12) runs for the Daniela Mele stable and is a three-year-old filly by Weltstar from Indaya. Worth including first up. FINEST CUP (15) looks one to note debuting and being a three-year-old daughter of Choeur Du Nord from Finest Cape running for a trainer maintaining an excellent strike rate. Interesting newcomer. RUSTIQUE (14) is a three-year-old filly on debut by Clovis Du Berlais from Electrostatique. Might feature.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, raced on the pace before fading ran second last of 12 at Clairefontaine on August 3 over 2400m, slow going 20 len behind Dihya with 58.5kg at $78.80. Don't think she will trouble this field.
