Race Overview
LADY DE VANDEL (9) has won all three times she's raced at Caen and gets the vote to score again, though she will need to prove she's just as effective on this new track. LAIA D'AVRIL (5) is unbeaten in two starts since going barefoot, remains unshod, and poses a serious threat. LAZURA PRIOR (8) showed some improvement last time out and can contest the finish. LA MITIDJA (11) is not easy to trust but has a winning chance in this line-up if smart this time.
Selection:
9 - 5 - 8
