Salon De Provence Race 8 - Prix De Miramas Mdn Stakes
GRASWANG (1) First up from a break of 27 weeks and threw down a serious challenge first up last preparation at the track. Will be positive in the run early. Cannot underestimate. SENTOSA (2) Honest race when 2nd last run at La Teste De Buch and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Dropping weight. Likely threat. LEIA ORGANA (4) Looked flat when 4th last start at Vichy but will try to take advantage of the draw. Shows good early pace. Can figure in the finish. NISHMAEL (5) 3yo first starter sired by New Bay for Francesco Santella. Follow the money.

Recent form sound. Most recently 2nd of 12 at La Teste De Buch on September 5 over 1600m, 2 len behind Roman Lady with 60kg at $4.10. The run before that 3rd of 9 at Vichy on August 19 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Counselor with 62kg at $5.60. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.

Was at big odds at debut, ran second last of 10 at this track on September 14 over 1800m, slow going 10 len behind Tasteful with 52.5kg at $38.10. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.

Recent form sound. Last start came from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Hyeres on September 6 over 2500m, 2 len behind Lashker with 57kg at $4.70. The race before that 4th in a small field at Vichy on August 14 over 2400m, 2.25 len behind I Am Maelia carrying 55kg at $5.30. Not far off the winner latest and looks a genuine hope.

First-starter by Sea The Moon out of La Cochere. Tough to line up. Betting the best pointer.
