ZARTOP (6) could only manage sixth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 2100m at Savenay, beaten only a neck. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. TRIPPED (11) finished third, beaten 1.75 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1500m at Vannes. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field. GALIBIER (7) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when eighth in a 2100m contest at Saint-Cloud three-and-a-half weeks ago. Has the class to produce a better result. ATAMAK (5) finished 9 lengths from the winner in eighth at his most recent outing over 2100m at Saint-Cloud. Finds a suitable assignment this time and can improve.
