Race Overview
GEX (7) has not been seen since September 2023 when unplaced over hurdles. His penultimate start was in the Grand Steeple-Chase De Paris (Grade 1 ) when narrowly beaten on May 21st, 2023. He is a class act and should be ready for this return run. KENITO (3) was a decent winner over track and trip in a Class 1 chase in December on his last run and is a threat. JOLIDEE (6) fell on his latest run but was a decent second before that and warrants respect. KLITCHKO DE BELAIR (2) heads the rest.
