Race Overview
A competitive Class 2 race with some useful performers lining up. MON BEL CANTO (7) has been in top shape on the PSF and turf of late and gets the vote ahead of PIANINO (1) who looks like the main danger. He ran well when second at this track in a Class 2 race when last seen in November. VERITABLE (9) is not to be overlooked and should play a leading role. CELESTIN (2) heads the remainder.
Selection:
7 - 1 - 9
