Race Overview
ILLICO MICHA (6) is in the form of his life and this represents an ideal opportunity for him to add to his tally. HEROINE DE CHENU (4) should make life difficult for the selection with a repeat of her last start (3rd) at Agen. Consistent GALAXIE LIMOUSINE (2) and ISEA D'HOULBEC (3) are also serious contenders for the podium and could join the fight for victory.
Selection:
6 - 4 - 2
