Comment: Towards the rear of 13 (Lyon-Parilly) on his first start for this trainer last month upped to this trip in a conditions race; if replicating best previous efforts warrants respect.

Comment: Worth noting that all her wins have come racing right handed; not really built on success in a conditions race in August at Saint Malo; not beaten that far in sixth (just over 4l) when close behind Forza Sedaca 24 days ago; this line-up contains some strong opposition so others make more appeal.
