Race Overview
ZIPPERE (1) has demonstrated commendable consistency in handicaps and benefits from the 2kg allowance of her rider, so is good value to resume winning ways. JOAO (6) finished a reassuring 2nd at Chantilly last time and should pose a threat to the selection if confirming that improvement. VICTORY CAT (12), DOWNEVA (2) and PRINCE GEORGE (11) are place-getters, though GALALITHE (9) isn't incapable of getting into the picture either.
Selection:
1 - 6 - 12
