Reliable jumper who did not finish the race two starts back. Put all that behind him last start when he finished third in a hurdle (3500m) at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Will prove hard to beat on best form.

Made it two jumps wins on the bounce when she scored by 5.5 lengths in a steeplechase (3600m) at Fontainebleau last start. Hard to knock.

Made a strong return from a 177-day layoff last time out in a hurdle (3600m) at Compiegne, finishing second when partnered by today's rider Gauvain Faivre-Picon. Can feature again after that bright return.

Unplaced in two appearances this preparation, both over the jumps. Finished fifth when resuming then was 7 lengths away in fifth more recently in a hurdle (3500m) at this track. Can do a lot better.

Found the frame two back in a hurdle (3400m) at Angers then could only manage sixth last time in a hurdle (3500m) at this track, beaten 11 lengths. Big task ahead.

Finished a modest fourth in a hurdle (3500m) at this track last start. That came after he eased out of the race two runs ago. Certainly worth another chance.

Is a little hard to follow. Finished tenth in a 3500m hurdle at this track last start after taking out a Fontainebleau hurdle two back. Disappointing last time and others preferred.

Scored two back in a hurdle (3500m) at Moulins then couldn't repeat the dose last time but wasn't disgraced when he finished fourth in a hurdle (3500m) at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Looking elsewhere.

Found the frame two back in a steeplechase (3600m) at Saint Brieuc then could only manage ninth last time in a steeplechase (3800m) at Angers, beaten 38 lengths. Looking to others.

Finished sixth the start before last in a hurdle (3550m) at Fontainebleau then could only manage seventh most recently in a hurdle (3500m) at this track. Major player on his best figures.
