Race Overview
DELIUS (5) is unbeaten and is starting to catch the imagination. He holds an entry for the premier race in France and a dominant performance here will stamp his claims for the Group 1 Prix de l'Arc De Triomphe. ILLINOIS (3) comes from a powerful yard and should have no issues with the drop in trip. He brings strong form to the table and will mount a huge challenge. SOSIE (7) is another that holds an entry in the Arc De Triomphe and should enjoy the step up in trip but has a couple to beat. MONDO MAN (4) is back on home soil and could run into the money is a top quality race.
