Race Overview
KROISADE (2) was a bit of a disappointment last time out but did better before that and could bounce back to score. SISSI DU MESNIL (8) showed improvement when only finding one better on chase debut and is a lively danger. MASKAYA (5) deserves a winning shot after two good recent runner-up performances. MASKAYA (5) may be better in a hurdle race but tat cannot be taken for granted,.
Selection:
2 - 8 - 5
