Although FRIENDLY SOUL hasn't been since winning the 2024 Prix de l'Opera that Group 1 success marks her down as a class act here and she returns with her yard in very good form. Wemightakedlongway could provide the chief threat if first-time cheekpieces help her to recapture her best form. The progressive Dreamasar is next on the list.
