(5) SALAM BOMBAY was rewarded for consistency with a last-start win in a similar contest over 2200m and with a repeat of that effort over the extra could see him follow up here. Veteran (1) ETALONDES (4) SAN CALIMERO and (7) TESSDELL have disappointed in recent starts but are all capable of posing a threat in this lineup. (9) CYCLONE VALERIE is inconsistent but could also make her presence felt if on her game.

(11) FLACANALE made a pleasing start to life over fences last time having shown promise over hurdles and she'll be hard to beat in this contest if building on her most recent outing. (2) ECOUTILLE concedes 7kg to the selection but has the form credentials to pose a threat and should be competitive. Both (6) FOLIE D'ECUPILLAC and (9) FREDERICA DE THAIX have earning potential while (3) EROHINE LA COLMINE and (10) HALE are also capable of getting a look in if as effective chasing as they are hurdling. Good race!

A competitive contest but one from which promising chaser (4) SERIAL could emerge victorious. He fell on his reappearance at Argentan recently but had shown enough over the bigger obstacles last year to warrant another chance in this. The same fate befell (5) BANONITO last time and he too should be competitive. (6) APATRIDE (2) DOULOS and (3) MISTER EMILY all have the credentials to play a role too.
