A good winner for my followers yesterday: Ciel De Paris landed the 12:55 at Deauville. He returned at 5/1, which was a very decent price.

At Salon-Provence today, I like French Colorado in the 12:27. He ran well in a much stronger race last time out at Saint-Cloud (Gr.3) and was previously second over this track and trip in a Class 2 in September. He should have too much for his rivals, and at around 10/3 he represents good value.

In the 1:47 handicap, Askari carries top weight but was only narrowly beaten into second at Fontainebleau on November 3rd. He remains lightly raced with more improvement to come, and at 7/2 he looks appealing.
