Verdict

A fascinating clash between classy trio VADENI, Bay Bridge and Luxembourg, and there's very little to choose between them. The vote goes to Vadeni, who landed the Eclipse over this trip last summer and brought the curtain down on a fine 2022 campaign by finishing second in the Arc. The French raider was a place adrift of the re-opposing Bay Bridge on return at Longchamp, but he looked rusty that day and is taken to reverse those placings here. Bay Bridge is second choice ahead of Luxembourg.
