Vincennes

Sent for a spell after winning a Class B here in early-November, LORD DELO (6) showed his form despite being eliminated here 2.5 weeks ago. He has nothing to prove under these conditions and can wrap this up if Nicolas Bazire keeps him focused. The young handler will still be justifiably wary of LORD DU BASSIN (9) who won unopposed here a month ago. Runner-up to him that day before repeating here mid-month, LUDIVINE (5) is plainly close to her race and should again finish close, but may first have to defer to the difficult but talented, and reconfigured, LOUIS VITTON MIJO (1) who won 3 straight over course and distance last spring.
