Race Overview
Sparingly raced HEROS D'AINAY (1) finished 2nd in both starts last year, in a Listed race and Group II contest when last seen in June 2023. He has his issues but is considerably talented, so it should pay to side with him under top weight on his eagerly anticipated reappearance. Versatile veteran RESPLENDOR (2) made a thunderous winning return to this discipline at Fontainebleau earlier this month and leads the opposition ahead of KARL PHILIPPE (4), who performed well on this track when finishing 3rd in his penultimate start.
