Verdict

Gibralfaro and Leoncavallo are interesting contenders, though the handicapper may just hold sway with both of them and preference is for PROTEK DES FLOS, who likes to get his toe in and should be able to do so today. Allee Bleue is another likely to be involved in the scrap for some money. 1. Protek Des Flos 2. Gibralfaro 3. Allee Bleue
