Race Overview
A hard race to assess. With Eric Raffin at the helm, it could pay to take a chance on LADY VICTORY (6) who could erase her recent faux pas if avoiding disqualification. LARA CROFT (2) is also a complicated filly but does not lack any ability and could fight for victory. LOVE LETTERS FERM (4) sets off in search of confirmation, while LAMATTA (5) isn't incapable of acquitting herself well moving up in class in her first outing at Vincennes.
Selection:
6 - 2 - 4
