Chantilly Race 5

Du Canal De La Machine Stakes

Stake: $51,295

OZAT (6) impressed winning by 3L over 1700m at this track. Selected to record fourth victory of his career. HYPERCORE (4) rates a big threat on the back of a 1.5L success in a 1900m handicap at this venue. GAMESTARS (2) disappointed when 3L tenth in the 1900m Listed Prix Lyphard at Deauville AW in November. Strong chance he makes amends with a win racing top connections. Veteran performer MONTY (10) came home 2L seventh contesting a 1900m conditions race at Deauville AW. Shortlist.

Finished off last preparation tenth of 12 at Deauville All Weather in the LR November 26 over 1900m, 3 len behind Glaer carrying 56kg at $2.40. Previous preparation first-up favourite; to post a big 3.5 len win. Compiegne October 11 over 1800m on heavy track defeating Juneberry carrying 58kg at $2.40. Best figures should see him run well.

Racing well. Comes off a 30 day let-up. At the latest run won by 1.5 len at Chantilly All Weather March 4 over 1900m defeating Love Is Gold with 55.5kg at $8.10. The start before that 3rd of 9 at Chantilly All Weather on February 13 over 1900m, 2 len behind Wakaburn carrying 56.5kg at $13. Fitter for recent racing and is a strong chance.
