BLACK HAWK (2) improved sharply on his 13th two starts back at Longchamp with a win over 2500m at Saint-Cloud five-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by a nose. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to be right there at the finish. ALMACADO GREE (1) is back from a spell of 11 weeks. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 3200m at Lignieres. Comes here with definite claims. DSCHINGIS RANGER (3) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 2200m at Dieppe. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. MOOR MALPIC (6) produced another moderate effort last start when 8 lengths from the winner in 12th over 2300m at Angers at the second run back from a spell. Capable of featuring prominently.
