Showed her form and well-being by finishing 2nd (barefoot) over 2450m at Caen on 17 June. Could confirm, even in this (unshod in front) shoe-fitting

Last-start winner over 2750m at Le Croise-Laroche on 29 April when unshod behind. Unlikely to repeat that feat in those shoe-fitting (shod behind)

Race Overview
Speedy YOUNG IMPERATRICE (5) has regained momentum recently and will, undoubtedly, enjoy this speed course. She gets the nod ahead of consistent JAVA DES CAILLONS (12) whose form and experience should stand her in good stead. Last-start winner JELGA DU VIVIER (7) and delicate JOFESCA BUISSONAY (2) complete the shortlist.
Selection:
5 - 12 - 7
