Saint Cloud Race 3 - Prix Caracalla Stakes
PROXIMA DU CENTAUR (6) performed with credit in securing a 5.5L fifth in the 2500m G3 Prix Lady O'Reilly at Deauville. Taken to double her career tally dropping markedly in grade. COSY BEAR (2) is expected to play a leading role chasing back-to-back wins following a 1.25L triumph in a course and distance handicap. Placed twice at this venue in the past VAN BLUTCH (3) lost out by a neck in placing second competing over 3000m at Dieppe. Bold show expected dropping in distance. RUBIA QUEEN (5) showed up well prior to fading in finishing 9.5L fourth over this trip at Compiegne in May. Claims debuting for a new trainer.

Last start raced on the pace when 3rd of 8 at this track on September 7 over 3000m, 2.25 len behind Amadeo carrying 52kg at $8.70. The start before that 7th of 14 at this track on August 31 over 2400m, slow going 5 len behind Zarababy with 54.5kg at $7.50. Likely to run around at long odds and deservedly so.
