Comment: Finished towards the rear of 14 over 6½f at Le Touquet (handicap) a week ago; recent form is unremarkable and still winless and defeats stacking up (24 on the bounce); stable has been going through a quiet spell; hard enough to fancy.

Comment: Ran out a ready winner over 1m6f here (handicap, second outing for stable) last month; record shows he knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 4-15) and looking to land a four-timer; he's a serious player with the potential to save ground from this gate.

Comment: Could not compete with Boomerang when 11th over 7f here (handicap, dropped a few pounds since) last month; struggled a bit in handicaps recently and not always shown an awful lot since winning a maiden at Pont De Vivaux in April; others more appealing as this is a fairly competitive event.

Comment: Comfortably beaten into sixth (split Sakharah and The Great Heaven) two weeks ago; useful in his prime; he has a shout despite defeat last time as ran well at Salon-De-Provence three runs back and the handicapper has given him a chance.
