In this fillies' equivalent of the opening race, victory is likely to be fought out between the experienced EMPLOY (1), who will benefit from this step up in distance, supplemented newcomer AVENUE MONTAIGNE (7), and OASINA (5) who was very well supported on debut and should have more to offer. RITA AURORA (4) appeals most of the remainder.

A good quality Class 2 event featuring some promising sorts who could go on through the ranks, including debut winner KALBIYANN (1) who made a good impression at Compiegne first time out. SUNBURST (10) has both solid form references and the experience to trouble the selection, while improving last-start winner STRESSFREE (6) should make his presence felt too with further progress expected. TZARINSKA (9) scored on debut and is also likely to improve with the benefit of that experience.

The experience of SCHALIMAR D'IBOS (3), who opened his account in style at Toulouse, should stand him in good stead. ALSHANFARA (2), who finished 3rd that day, has a bit to find on that form and, as such, a bigger threat is likely to come from EJAABY (1), after a promising introduction, and last-start winner GHASSAN II (4) who ought to improve after a two-month absence.

BLUE RIBBON (1) did not go unnoticed on debut at this track and is taken to open her account by making a winning return to this course in a claiming race. Christophe Escuder makes the trip with MA MOME (8), who has never disappointed over this distance, and his charge ought to be competitive here. Mathieu Boutin is well armed too, with BOTTOMS UP (5) and BAWE ISLAND (7) who have the advantage of having already shone at this level.

a tough race with many having their handicap debut and others that are still unexposed. MEHGAWAY (17) was runner-up in a decent claimer last time out so would not be a surprise winner on handicap debut.

CHENNAMMA (9) is one of many more that has to be considered a possible winner.
