Race Overview
This has the makings of a potential Rouget-Reynier rivalry being renewed. The former's well-related ROAD TO ESCONDIDO (8) is only marginally preferred to the latter's COMME QUOI (6), whose dam has already produced several well-performed runners. Fabrice Vermeulen has two strings to his bow, with KINGSALE (4), the full-brother to Group I winner Dream And Do, as well as COMTE DE LA ROSE (3), who is closely related to the stable's Listed-placed Back To Black, and both runners are likely to acquit themselves competitively debut too.
