Verdict

BLOOD DESTINY tends to operate at a higher level and, though he hasn’t shown much in handicaps previously, his class should count for plenty in a race of this nature. He gets the vote, with Le Nez Creux feared most after an encouraging stable debut at Ayr and Drumgill also respected from a good mark.

  1. BLOOD DESTINY (FR)
  2. LE NEZ CREUX (FR)
  3. DRUMGILL (IRE)
