Race Overview
HIP HOP CONTI (1) seems to come alive at this racecourse. He scored on all four of his runs at this track last year over various trips. He will be a short-odds favorite to keep up his winning streak. SAINT GODEFROY (2) is also a course specialist. He scored on his latest two starts, the latest a Class 1 cross-country over 4700m on December 11th. UNIKETAT (5) was second to the main selection when they met in February 2023 at this track. If fit to go he warrants respect.
Selection:
1 - 2 - 5
