(3) CADAMYR made a winning debut at Mont-de-Marsan where he beat (8) L'ALBASERRADA and (10) HALADILA. Both rivals are weighted to reverse that form on these terms but they're all open to any amount of improvement and it could be worth taking a chance on the selection to get the better of those rivals again and remain undefeated. (4) YLLICO showed improvement in blinkers last time and can play a role with the headgear retained. Well-related newcomer (12) FRAPADINGUE warrants respect and could get a look in too.

(4) PORTENTOSO showed promise on the flat in Germany and has the sort of profile with Guillaume Macaire thrives so will know all about this task. With a clear round of jumping in his first start over obstacles he could prove too good for these rivals. (1) ROYAL NAVY WARSHIP made a winning start over hurdles last time looks most likely to expose any chinks in the selection's armour. Both (10) OPTIMAX and (2) WUTI have references in this discipline and can get a look in although (9) SINDHA could upset the applecart if sreproducing the form her debut effort.

(1) ARROW has improved nicely since winning on debut and is seeking a hat-trick after two good wins. He should be hard to beat in this small field. (4) NORATHIR was unsuccessful in a Listed race last time out but is capable of better and could contest the finish. (2) ROSISSIM and (3) PICNIC ROYAL are two others that could get involved with the finish.

Prolific jumper (4) PRINCE SUMITAS is as effective hurdling as he is chasing. He's hard to oppose in current form and should take a power of beating in this contest. (2) POLYGAME and (1) BEAU NORA are talented jumpers in their own right. Both are capable of posing a threat but have their work cut out getting the better of the selection conceding weight. (3) APERO BLEU appears best of the rest.

After a promising start to her career last year it would be of little surprise were (1) AL GARIYAH to make a winning comeback.

(2) SCOOBY CHOP is overdue a maiden win and deserves to see his consistency rewarded which could well be the case here with his rider claiming 4kg. Top-rated (7) ALADIN is entitled to improvement after a comeback outing so could thwart the selection's winning bid. (1) FLYLEYF has been holding form and is unlikely to be far from the action again. (5) ANDUJAR and (4) SILVERED ANGEL could complete minor money.

An open event as a case can be made for several of these runners. (10) KENRISK has resumed in good order this year and after hitting the woodwork in his last two starts deserves to open his account and score an overdue maiden win. (5) BAROU is closely matched though and there should be little separating the pair on these terms after a recent meeting over this trip at La Teste-de-Buch. (9) PIXIE HOLLOW and (1) SWEET MAMBO have been in good form over 2400m and will be competitive if seeing out the extra.
