2L third at Deauville last time is good form. That made it four placed runs from four starts so far this campaign so looks overdue a victory. Drops in grade and will prove hard to beat.

KENTISH WALTZ (9) has been progressing with racing. Went clear for a 2L success and though upped in the weights can do better yet. The one to beat in this big field. DIAMANT DE VATI (3) placed on two of his past three outings. Clearly in good form and rates well in this field. Solid pick. CHANTE BLU (6) disappointed in latest but is likely better judged on form of a 1L win the run prior. Races well for this jockey and looks a winning chance. SVOUL (5) is consistent. Sure to give usual running and is an each way chance.

FORZA SEDACA (2) holds form claims having placed on both starts so far. Looks both talented and consistent and expect to take beating. SOHO SENSATION (1) is with a good yard. Progressing each attempt this campaign and finds the right race. Solid pick. HALIPHON (5) resumes following lengthy absence. Placed when last seen and interesting if able to resume in similar form. Check market to determine readiness as could be a potential threat to all. KING ROBBE (3) rates well on best efforts. Below that level on both runs this campaign but no surprise to see improvement. Each way.
4L second at Le Lion d'Angers on reappearance. That made it two placed finishes from three starts and looks well capable of winning races. Keep safe.

Bumped into a very smart performer when an 8L second at Marseilles Borelly. Can do better than that now and on form looks the one to beat.

FAMILY WAY (6) boasts a strong pedigree and is bred to be smart. Concerning he is only now making his debut but could make it a winning one in what is a modest looking race. ROCHE LIMIT (2) sets the form standard. Placed on three of four career attempts and was unfortunate to bump into a strong winner last time. Keep safe. VADALDA (1) shaped well on reappearance. This is no tougher and could continue her progression. Threat to all. SEVERINA MAY (3) races for a good yard. Expected to be primed for debut and will enjoy this trip. Each way.
3.25L sixth at Lyon-Parilly latest was a good run. Extra distance will suit now and can progress. Interesting.

Beaten a long-neck latest but incredibly that was only enough to finish fourth. This looks easier so with a repeat effort he will go very close.

POLO DREAM (3) just missed the placings on reappearance at Dax producing a good run. Might progress. Each way.
Game head winner at Angers two starts back. Disappointing only run since but had excuses and can bounce back now.

4.25L tenth at Longchamp looks strong form in the context of this race. Apprentice claim helps and she is a big player in this field.

IL PITTORE (8) ran a great race over this journey. This is easier and may improve again. The one to beat. MASAKI (2) placed delivering best run of this campaign and can continue to progress. IRON SPIRIT (1) isn't consistent. Secured a game success only to disappoint subsequently. Big chance if on a going day. ZAVERNA (4) drops in grade having raced well at Longchamp and with this easier contest will also enjoy the trip. Consider each way.
Game long-neck winner at Compiegne then far from disgraced in much better race than this at Saint Cloud. Interesting back at this level.

TOP BY COCOONING (4) was beaten a long-neck in bid for back to back wins. Thriving at present and has a lot in his favour. The one to beat. TRES SOLID (5) is an admirable sort. Racing well aged nine and form when just missing the placings at Longchamp looks very strong. Keep safe. SMART COOKIE (2) is a consistent filly. Look sure to give her usual running and that may well be enough to land another win. Each way. VASY SAKHEE (1) won two starts back and has gone close since. In good form at present and likely to do better back in this grade. Threat to all.
Game attitude to hold rivals by a head on debut at Cluny. Had been well supported that day so clearly it was expected. Upped in grade but can improve.

HOUX GRIS (1) won on debut. Upped in grade though this does look a moderate affair given its level. Expected to improve and may take beating. HAPPY JACK (3) placed at this track on debut. Clearly well suited to this journey and on just second career start can progress. Big chance of shedding maiden tag. HISTOIRE DE REVE (6) runs first up for good yard who deliver plenty of debut winners so expected to be primed. Any market support would boost confidence. HAUTE LANDES (5) having his first start and in a winnable contest. Each way.
