Aix Les Bains Race 3 - Prix La Parenthese - Prix D'hautecombe Claiming Stakes
NYMPHEAS (1) Got the upper hand late when winning last time at Salon De Provence and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Undefeated last 2 attempts. Looks a worthwhile investment today. VIDEO GAMES (6) Came in 5th last time at the track. Should improve and drawn nicely. Likely to get back. The large claim from V Dupont should help. Looks to be value. YODA (5) Came in 4th last start at Lyon Parilly. Should improve here. Likely to settle back in the field. Winnable race. LIGHTIANA (7) Uncompetitive when 6th last start at Salon De Provence. Displays good tactical speed. Each way a good option.

Form hard to fault. Last start came from midfield and won by a long-neck at Salon-de-Provence June 17 over 2000m defeating Space Good with 50kg at $3.30. The start before that won by 1.5 len at Marseille Vivaux June 6 over 2000m defeating Le Landin with 53kg at $14. Has the right credentials.

Comes off a 31 day let-up. Most recently ran last in a small field at Marseille Vivaux on June 6 over 2000m, 11 len behind Nympheas with 53kg at $27. The start before that 4th in a small field at Marseille Vivaux on May 22 over 2600m, 3.5 len behind Bedda Vita carrying 59kg at $9. Can do a lot better than that last run.
