TERESA MENDOZA (2) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Le Croisé-Laroche, finishing third and only 2.25 lengths from the winner at the end of 1800m. Nicely placed to find winning ways. MADAME DE SAXE (1) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 4.5 lengths away in seventh over 2500m at Argentan. Likely improver with strong prospects. AKAGERA (10) has not won for a long while. Last raced on March 28 when beaten 4 lengths into sixth at Compiegne over 2000m. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. BALERION (3) is a 16-start maiden who returned last time and finished ninth at Chantilly All Weather over 1600m, beaten 8 lengths. Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat.
