Race Overview
VERDANT LADY (7) does set the standard in a weak race and gets a golden opportunity to score. This track and distance should suit her nicely. L'ARGENT (5) has been holding form in the UK and deserves respect. PIANTARELLA (10) showed improvment last time out and can do even better this time. ZENIGATA (3) has run well at this track before and could contest the finish.
Selection:
7 - 5 - 10
