Salon De Provence Race 3 - Prix De L'association Des Proprietaires Province-Paris Hcp

BELL SONG (2) Did a good job when winning last time at Marseille Borely and showing improvement in recent outings. Running with confidence this campaign. Has to be included. INSTRUIT (3) Ran 4th last start at La Teste De Buch but proven performer at this distance in the past. Looks promising in this race. SPORT COUPE (1) Not in contention when 7th last time at Vichy and will be down in distance. Can give this a shake. EXCALIBUR (13) Finished 5th last time at Dieppe but gets a reduction in weight. Should come to hand quickly. Has to be strongly considered.

Recent form sound. Most recently favourite; won by 1.0 len at Marseille-Borely on September 29 over 1200m defeating Stellar Chop carrying 58kg at $3.60. Before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Lyon-Parilly on September 8 over 1350m, 4 len behind Franciscano carrying 58.5kg at $5.30. Hard to beat again.

Form hard to fault. Last start 4th of 12 at La Teste De Buch on September 24 over 1100m, 1.1 len behind Koutsounakos with 58kg at $9. The start before that won by a nose at La Teste De Buch on September 5 over 1100m defeating Dadas Boy with 56.5kg at $4.90. Not a bad effort last time and is open to improvement.

Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 9 at Marseille-Borely on September 29 over 1200m, 1.0 len behind Bell Song carrying 59kg at $4.10. Before that didn't do much in the run home; 7th of 12 at Lyon-Parilly on September 8 over 1350m, 8 len behind Franciscano carrying 61kg at $5.20. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.

Second-up. First-up after four months 5th of 10 at Lyon-Parilly on October 6 over 1350m, on a slow track; 1.1 len behind Terredeguerre with 61kg at $20.70.

At the latest run 4th in a small field at Cavaillon on October 11 over 1600m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Xaarta carrying 55kg at $8.90. The run before that 6th of 12 at Hyeres on September 19 over 1850m, 12 len behind Oblenskhy carrying 53.5kg at $42.50. Finds a few better today. Can't recommend.
