Ce n’est pas pour rien, à notre avis, si l’établissement Jean-Michel Henry aligne à nouveau Tsitsikamma Dance. Son entraîneur n’était visiblement pas satisfait de la prestation de son cavalier la semaine dernière et les Racing Stewards avaient reproché à Ségeon son manque d’initiative durant le parcours. Il sera cette fois associé à Swapneel Rama et avec sa charge raisonnable, on le croit capable de remettre les pendules à l’heure.
Les adversaires, ne viendront cependant pas avec la fleur au fusil. King’s County avec sa bonne ligne pourrait se retrouver seul à l’avant et le voir doubler la mise n’est pas à écarter. Tout comme Opera Royal, qui est resté très bien depuis sa victoire dans le prélude du Maiden, et Ready To Attack, qui reste sur une belle deuxième place.
