SHANGHAI SPIRIT (6) arrives in good order and, given the strength and consistency of his recent form, is probably the one to be with here. Both BLACKJAC DU HOULEY (4) and MONTE CINTO (17) fit similar profiles and have solid form references at this level, so are likely to pose a threat. Nortbert Leenders-trained runners KALAMAZOO RIVER (10), who is capable but inconsistent, and improved last-start 3rd KARAKOY (16) are also capable of staking a claim, along with recent winner LIBRE (12) despite his resultant penalty.
Useful colt with solid form references and the profile to be competitive in this grade/company. Respected over a trip to his liking

GRECIAN BONANZA (8) has maintained a good level of form and consistency on both surfaces, and confirmed his competitiveness at this level by finishing 2nd in a Quinte+ race last time. On that evidence, it should pay to follow the progress of Jean-Claude Rouget's charge, who is taken to confirm his superiority over both AZKA (6) and MAGELLAN (5), who were 4th and 3rd respectively in the aforementioned event. LOFSONGUR ICELAND (4) is also capable of staking a claim and could even split that pair on her handicap debut. NEKOLETO (3) has rediscovered his form fitted with headgear recently and has the potential to make his presence felt too, despite his awkward No 16 barrier gate. TAYBET (1), one of three Mikel Delzangles-trained runners in the race, has the credentials to be competitive in this grade/company, so is dangerous to dismiss on his Quinte+ debut. HAPTICS (2) and WAY TO MARSEILLE (7) are consistent and cannot be discounted either. Tricky!

ZILRAK (6) made an encouraging start to life in the handicaps when 2nd at ParisLongchamp last time and should go one better here with a repeat of that performance. HOLLY COLOR (5) is proven at this level and likely to pose a threat given the strength and consistency of his recent form. Consistent filly DEAUVILLE (3) and last-start winner GOLDYWAY DE SAON (7) are also capable of staking a claim here. GLOIRE DE VASSY (10) and LIDISBARN (9) appeal most of the remainder.

GRAZANO (7) deserves to get his head in front again after a couple of near misses and, given his aptitude for this track and Fabien Lefebvre, gets the nod here ahead of MAESTRO CHOP (6) and RANNAN (9), who are fast-finishers likely to get involved late. Frontrunner VISIONARY DREAMER (13) is in good form and will give a good sight, while last-start winner ALABAA (5) will need luck from a wide draw but is not incapable of staking a claim.

The booking of Christophe Soumillon aboard DAIQUIRI DREAM (3) is significant and will likely to win the votes of many. Myriam Bollack-Badel's runner is preferred ahead of ROSETTA STONE (8), who returned to form last time when finishing 4th over a similar distance. VILLA DARYA (9) is favourably treated under the conditions, so capable of staking a claim too. CREATIVE (4) should have more to offer over this trip and appeals most of the remainder.

It will all rest on the fitness of L'ASTRONOME (2). He had a good year in 2022 and was not disgraced in a much higher level of races than this. If fit he should win trying further this time. BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN (1) is fit and has no issues with the distance so could make an honest race of it. WINTERLAND (6) is the unknown package as his debut win was good and he could be anything so he cannot be dismissed away easily. The other three runners will need to improve to win.
