SPRINGBOKS (8) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing third and beaten only 1.4 lengths over 2000m at Le Lion-d'angers. Likely improver with strong prospects. LE GARDOLOT (2) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.5 lengths over 2700m at Chantilly All Weather. Has the ability to produce another positive result. PONTD'YEU (16) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten one length when fourth over 2400m at Moulins three weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. BALINA GARY (12) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race when resuming from a spell last time out over 2500m at Argentan, finishing third and beaten 1.2 lengths. Best figures measure up. Set to run well again.
