Verdict

Last year's winner Gentoo and runner-up Celtic Celeb have another crack and a bold bid is expected from the former. Shamanova has claims, though Christophe Lemaire sticks with the other Aga Khan-owned runner Shankardeh, who landed a Group 2 over C&D earlier this month. This longer trip could bring a better effort from Cavalryman, but BE FABULOUS also represents Godolphin and she's preferred. Andre Fabre's progressive filly won a Listed event over 1m6f at Saint Cloud on her latest start with three of today's rivals behind including the British raider Electrolyser and there looks more to come from her.
