Has been finishing at the tail of the field in most recent outings, the latest in a hurdle (3500m) at this track. Prepared to risk here.

Did not threaten when he finished eighth in a hurdle (3500m) at this track last time out, following on from a win when resuming in a hurdle (3550m) at Fontainebleau. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.

Was unplaced two runs ago when resuming in a hurdle (3450m) at Mont-de-Marsan. Was far more impressive last time when he finished second in a hurdle (3450m) at Mont-de-Marsan. Certainly worth including.

Was not beaten far when third two starts back before a disappointing seventh in a hurdle (3300m) at Cagnes-sur-Mer last time. Chance if at his best.

Consistent gelding that looks due for a win. Placed in three of 6 runs, finishing off last campaign when pulled up in a hurdle (3700m) at Le Lion-d'angers. May need more.

Clocked-in second two runs ago in a hurdle (3400m) at Angers. Repeated the dose more recently when third in a maiden hurdle (3400m) at Angers, beaten 4.5 lengths. Cannot be written off.

Four-year-old gelding who debuted in a hurdle at this track over 3500m and was safely held, beaten 21 lengths. Expected to struggle against these.

Couldn't find the top three two back in a hurdle (3400m) at Compiegne then again missed out in a steeplechase (3400m) at Nimes last time. This looks too tough.

Racing second up. Got into a bit of bother when third in a hurdle (3500m) at this track first up. That was first try over the obstacles and can only be better for the experience. Looks well placed here and expected to go close.

Showed potential on debut last start in a hurdle (3500m) at this track. Will take a lot from that run and a better result is likely.
