Freshman Sire Threat Off The Mark At Marseille

[Wandering Eyes]

Sent forward to claim the lead after the opening exchanges, the 7-1 chance was shaken up at the top of the straight and came under sterner urging inside the final furlong to hold the late bid of Anaconda (Fr) (Chachnak {Fr}) by a neck.
