Race Overview
AQUILON (14) was a good third when last seen at Lyon Parilly earlier this month and is the tentative selection in this handicap. BRAVE SHIINA (15) gets in at the foot of the weights and could be the main threat. GOGUEN SPAISE (3) has been third on his last three outings and looks like a logical option each way. KALIFE ALAPLACE (12) ran a credible race at this track last time and is not out of it.
Selection:
14 - 15 - 3
