Debut winner over 2000m at Saint-Cloud in March but failed to confirm that promise when only 5th at Chateaubriant over 1950m on 27 April. Shouldn't be hastily condemned

Race Overview
VEGAS (5) made the expected improvement after a much-needed comeback outing to finish an eye-catching 4th last time out at Chantilly and is likely to fight for victory with further progress on the cards. DE SICA (1), who finished 3rd in a Listed race as a two-year-old last term, made no impression in an 1800m Group III on his reappearance but would've tightened up with the benefit of that outing and should, given this ease in grade, pose more of a threat at this level. His unexposed stablemate KALET (2) and last-start Fontainebleau winner SWANN (4) are likely to make their presence felt too.
