By Stéphane Davy. MERRY NONNA (304) will be at the start of Prayer Prize, Saturday, at the Paris-Vincennes racecourse (R-1). His trainer Pascal Castel (photo) tells us regarding it:
“The horse took a good 3rd place at the beginning of September, in Vincennes. His time was good that day (editor’s note, 1’13”6). Since then, he has suffered two disqualifications. In his defense, he has experienced some foot problems. He remains sensitive at this level, and the unshoeing has had undesirable effects. He has not been seen since the end of October but the horse is good. He is easy to train. He adapts at all, know that I prefer him when he comes from behind. Know that the distance doesn’t matter to him. Saturday, it’s a great commitment for him. He is also one of the richest in the race. Besides , it is well located behind the wings of the autostart. Even if it will remain shod, I expect a good performance. In my opinion, it has a decent winter to achieve.”
