Returns from a spell. Closed the last campaign with a minor placing in a steeplechase (4100m) at Lyon-Parilly, beaten a nose. Can run a bold race fresh.

Returns from a 193-day spell, and has been successful when fresh in the past. Kicked off last prep with a solid third in a steeplechase (3800m) at Nancy. Good fresh performer who can return in winning form.

Was unplaced two back in a steeplechase (3800m) at Cagnes-sur-Mer. Made amends last time to score in a hurdle (3500m) at Cagnes-sur-Mer by 5.5 lengths. Will prove hard to beat on current form.

Wasn't popular in betting but returned from a 113-day spell on January 3 with a strong win in a steeplechase (3900m) at Pau, scoring by 2.5 lengths. Has the ability to test the top fancies.

Last start ran in a hurdle (3800m) at Pau but was eased out of it. Capable enough and is worth including.

Unplaced two starts ago in a steeplechase (4700m) at Pau then produced a better result last start when he wound up in sixth in a steeplechase (4000m) at Pau, beaten 12 lengths. Big task ahead.

Was most recently at the races three months ago. Closed the last campaign with a win in a steeplechase (3800m) at Nimes, getting home by 4 lengths. Prepared to just watch.

Back from a 167-day break. Finished off last campaign when seventh in a steeplechase (3500m) at this track, beaten 17 lengths. Others rate better this time.
