Cholet Race 1 - Prix Des Lys - Monte
LEGEND DREAM (9) won both starts since returning from a short break including scoring by 3.25L at Cherbourg. Selected to complete a hat-trick. LILA D'OCTAV (12) is expected to play a leading role stepping up in grade following an 8.25L triumph racing off a 25m handicap at La Guerche-de-Bretagne. KAKOU ALDO (6) suffered an early DQ at Meslay-du-Maine on her return from a lengthy absence. Warrants thought as rates a major threat on form demonstrated in 2024. KENAVO RUSH (7) suffered a 0.5L defeat placing second on grass at Fougeres. Worth giving close consideration making his first start at this venue.
