Meydan Race 7

Cape Verdi Fillies Stakes (Group 2) - Turf

Prize Money: $372,807

ROMANTIC STYLE (3) is a talented filly who tackled a tougher race at her last run on July 7 and finished well back over 1400m in the G1 Prix Jean Prat at Deauville. She is part of the powerful Charlie Appleby team and is the one to beat. CHOISYA (1) is back from a four-month spell and she does run well first-up, including a win over 1609m at Haydock Park at the start of last prep. Winning chance while fresh. ULTIMA (4) is back after a break of 12 weeks. Looking to emulate her win at Ovrevoll at the beginning of the last prep. She is an interesting runner and the small field will definitely help her. EASYWITHME (2) is a promising type who finished in the placings over 1600m at Bro Park at her last appearance on September 15. She can't be totally ruled out of winning this.
