Only four line up for this Class 1 event, with all having claims for success. The marginal vote goes to KIFFEUR (1) who was a good 2nd at this track recently and won before that at Angers. He can score from KAMONDO (2) who could be the value in the betting market. KERMILLIS (4) is improving and has run well at this track recently. ZEPHYR DE BEAUMONT (3) is also a player having made a pleasing effort when second in a Class 1 race at this track last month.

SAINT GODEFROY (3) won at this track over 4700m last time in mid-December when last seen from arch-rival again today HARMONIE ROQUE (4) who meets on 2kg worse terms today. The finishing positions will likely remain the same over a bit further today. HIP HOP CONTI (1) is versatile trip-wise and scored over 600m further last time at this track 20 days ago. He can not be discounted.

CHANTEUR DU BOURG (1) made a favourable impression when winning a Class 1 chase at this track at the end of December and should be too good for his rivals. KORISTE (7) was successful on her chasing debut last month and will make progress from that win. She can make the likely favourite work hard for a win. KANTAGUA DU LARGE (6) deserves a crack at a Class 1 race after a win in a Class 2 chase over this track 22 days ago. LES LOYAUTES (4) heads the remainder.

WATHAB (1) has a good opportunity to get off the mark after a solid effort when third at this venue on January 8th. He has more experience than possibly the main danger GARCILASO (2) who shaped with promise last month on his debut over 1600m when sixth in a maiden. With improvement, he can make the selection pull out all the stops. WEST OF WICHITA (6) and the unraced RED LIST (8) could have a say in proceedings and warrant respect.

IN SHALAA (10) can follow up after success at this track in a similar type of race when last seen 10 days ago. Her main threat could be PRINCE EXPRESS (6) who also ran well at this track recently. He was second two weeks ago and should once again be involved at the business end. GASTIBELZA (8) is one for the each-way backers to take seriously. JOJO MOME (1) has work to do to beat the main selection having finished behind her last time but can not be left out.

Although he has top weight SOMKIYR (1) can score on his first attempt in handicap company. He ran with credit in a Class 2 race last time and probably has the most to fear from LE PHOCEA (2) who also is at the top end of the handicap after a win last time at this track earlier this month. ALMANSUR (3) has talent but can be quirky. He can play a lead role if in the correct frame of mind. EAGLE MOUNT (7) makes up the shortlist on her handicap debut.
