Shuka Sho (3rd leg Triple Tiara)

[specialweek]

As posted in the Reve d'essor thread the Shuka sho looks open this year with a number of chances. No barrier draw yet and final field yet to be decided.
I do believe Whale Capture is over due to win. Marcellina will trim fitter and Aventura looks to have ability. Exotics has to include Erin Court and Pure Brise
