HOUBI (7) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 3 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1500m at Marseille Vivaux. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. FORTUNATE SON (6) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2 lengths when eighth in a 1400m contest at Longchamp four days ago. Finds an easier assignment and can turn things around. KELLY KEY (8) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1400m at Chantilly All Weather. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. GOGOKA (4) has not won for a long while. Last raced on March 18 when beaten 12 lengths into 13th at this track over 1200m. Placed to advantage so expect a bold run.
