Race Overview
MATURLO (1) flopped in the Italian Derby but had good Italian form before that and could score in France. TEN HORNS (3) could be returning to his best form and has a chance of going one better on a solid last performance. TOYOTOMI (4) did not run too badly in a Listed race last time out and knows how to win so deserves respect. THOR LIGHTNING (5) has been consistent so far and can be competitive again.
