Race Overview
CASAPUEBLO (1) is clearly the best of these on known form. He returns from a break and it is his first taste of this surface, but he sets a high standard for the race. CASAPUEBLO (1) is fit and in very good form, so will contest the finish again. WALLY (5) is very consistent and was touched off in this race last year. FERRARI FEVER (3) always tries hard and can be competitive once again.
