Race Overview
A regular fixture at Quinte+ level, I'M A BELIEVER (6) should relish the ease in grade and he is taken to reconnect with success in these calmer waters. Thriving HAVANA SIX (2) is course-and-distance suited and she should play a leading role here, especially having been supplemented for this commitment. Versatile ANCTOT (5), last-start winner LA TEMPLIERE (3) and Adrien Fouassier's recruit LORENZO DE MEDICI (7) should fight out the minors.
