Verdict
MOUNT WELLINGTON is making hard work of getting his head in front but was beaten only a neck in a handicap over track and trip last time and is preferred to stablemate Lucius Tiberius, the first foal of a Listed winner in France, here. Quizical also finished runner-up when favourite for a maiden race here last time but one of the newcomers could prove a threat. Of those, Shareva is a half-sister to a Group 2 winner and makes more appeal than the likes of Haunting Vocals, Bronagh's Belle and Rockfish.
