Salon De Provence Race 3 - Salon De Provence Maiden Stakes
With blinkers applied for the first time STUDY OF CASE (1) is selected to break through for his first win following a 5.5L third tackling this trip on very heavy going at Marseille-Borely. NATURALISTE (7) showed up well prior to fading when registering a 4L fifth attempting a useful looking 2100m newcomers event at Longchamp. Bold show expected. CELAGO (4) raced from off the pace prior to delivering a 7L fourth in the previously mentioned Marseille-Borley. Shortlist. BRUNETTE COLEMAN (5) stepped up markedly on her debut effort when one place ahead of the top pick at Marseille-Borely. Worth noting against this field.

Second-up. First-up after five months 7th of 10 at Cavaillon on May 10 over 1600m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Lightiana carrying 51kg. Previously second-up 4th in a small field at Aix-les-Bains on July 5 over 1200m, 9 len behind Miss Talvard carrying 57kg at $3.40. Likely to find this out of reach.
