Race Overview
GOLIATH DU RHEU (3) is an honest performer who has been plying his trade over fences recently. He won the Prix Jean Stern (Grade 2) over fences two runs back in April 2023, and his latest run was in September 2023 when he was second in a Grade 3 chase. He returns over hurdles and should be ready to go. KOLOKICO (6) won a Grade 3 chase over this course in December and is a threat, he will have no fitness worries. JEUNE COKO (2) looks best of the remainder.
