Race Overview
GOLDEN BEACH (5) won well at Chantilly last time and is confidently selected to go back-to-back. Firm first choice. LORLISALSA (3) has been knocking loudly at the door by posting two creditable seconds and it would be no shock if she were to win. MIAMI BEET (6) caught the eye last time when placing and can do so again. Expect a good effort again. MAKHZEN (10) needs to confirm the recent improvement but surely can.
Selection:
5 - 3 - 6
