Verdict

This race looks to be at the mercy of southern raider D’ELIRE D’ESTRUVAL who brings a different class of form to the table to his six rivals. He is hard to oppose. Best of the rest may prove to be in-form James Ewart’s Calix Delafayette who may find further improvement following a wind op, while L’attendue also has place prospects if building on her latest effort.
  1. Delire D'Estruval
