Race Overview
The rematch is on between JEANNETTE PRIORY (8) who got the better of JEWEL DE BANVILLE (9) in a course-and-distance event on 12 January but a chance is taken in the latter avenging that defeat. Last-start scorer FREEDOM (5) and thriving IPSON DU VERNAY (10) are maintaining good form and physical condition, and they should be competitive for the leading positions again. JULIANA DE RETZ (7), making progress in the harness, and experienced GYBOR WELL (12) are others with podium prospects.
Selection:
9 - 8 - 5
