Yet to bother the judge this prep. Two starts back when resuming. Finished eighth at the latest appearance in a hurdle (3800m) at Fontainebleau, beaten 17 lengths. Ready to return to form.

Handy run when not far from the winner resuming but was easily accounted for latest when beaten 35 lengths hurdle. Place hope only on latest effort.

Was very good when returning from a 87-day layoff most recently, beaten 2 lengths into second in a steeplechase (4100m) at Lyon-Parilly. Strips fitter and is again a top chance.

Second-up after a disappointing ninth in a steeplechase (3850m) at Fontainebleau when resuming 42 days ago. Fitter but needs to improve sharply.

Was unplaced two back in a hurdle (3800m) at Pau then again missed out in a hurdle (3900m) at Auteuil last time. Hard to beat in this suitable event.

Returned from a 125-day spell last start and lost the rider in a steeplechase (3850m) at Fontainebleau. Forgive latest. Key chance this time.

Failed to complete the course last start over the jumps at Fontainebleau after finishing fifth the run before in a 3850m steeplechase at Fontainebleau. Capable of turning things around.

Finished third when fresh from a spell last start, finishing third (3500m) at Treviso. Generally goes well second up, with four wins from 10 runs. Improvement in store.

Not raced for three months. Closed off last preparation when fifth in a steeplechase (3800m) at Cagnes-sur-Mer, beaten 13 lengths. Must include among the chances.

Nothing too positive to say about this gelding who hasn't looked likely in 13 runs to date. Prefer others at this stage.

Hasn't tasted success for more than a year. Last start finished 4 lengths from the winner in fourth in a steeplechase (4400m) at Fontainebleau. Rates highly in this field and can find winning form.
