Race Overview
ILLUSION D'AMOUR (3) was an impressive eye-catching finisher last time out at Vincennes in a Class E and in similar form should be hard to oppose. INDIAN PACIFIC (6) ran a good race too in his last outing but goes unshod only on his hind feet this time around. He remains a big player in this field. HAIKIDO (1) is going through a purple patch and should be given plenty of consideration. HOOLIGAN (11) reassured last time out in a competitive event and is a good each-way play.
Selection:
3 - 6 - 1
