POUR LA VICTOIRE returned to form with a second at Brighton earlier this month and he can go one better in this opening contest. The selection has won off higher marks in the past including off a 2lb higher mark here last year and is taken to get the better of the in-form Wild Flower who steps up in grade having won at Windsor last time out. The consistent Island Cloud can register another placing by finishing third in this.
