Trois Etoiles looks the pick in this competitive handicap with Capitole and Kinbrace just two of many dangers. This is not the strongest of races and this John Hills trained filly is no world beater, however she has put up some decent displays over this trip, including a third behind Tuscarrora at Chepstow last time. She is still off a decent mark and should go close under the champion jockey. Kinbrace has improved from two to three and should be spot on after showing promise in both her races this season. Capitole is also going the right way and with the stable in great form at present he should go well on his handicap debut. Royal Zephyr and Zuri are from big stables, and although they have shown very little form to date, should be monitored closely in the betting. So not a race to be too confident, but Trois Etoiles does hold strong claims.
