Race Overview
HUNGRY HEART (1) appeals most in a wide-open handicap. He showed his form/well-being and versatility by finishing 2nd in a Quinte+ handicap on PSF last time and will benefit from his rider's 3,5kg allowance. CONCERTATION (4) remains maiden but will open her account sooner rather than later. She wouldn't be winning out of turn and should play a leading role. LORD SINCLAIR (6), who caught the eye on his return at Deauville, and last-start winner MARSILIUS (3) are others with legitimate ambitions.
Selection:
1 - 4 - 6
