Race Overview
KELCANTO BELLO (7) returns after a significant break but is very talented and would not be a surprise winner if fit from the layoff. KAFU (12) has shown good progress with two solid recent wins and has every chance of completing the hat-trick. KING AULNAIES (11) fluffed his lines with a disqualification last time out but can bounce back to be a threat. KIMY SIMARDIERE (2) could also get involved with the finish.
Selection:
7 - 12 - 11
