STINGO (2) is yet to find the frame in two runs this preparation. Opened with a tenth in a LR hurdle (3900m) at this track then was 5.5 lengths adrift in a steeplechase (3800m) at Compiegne 13 days ago. Tough to stop on his best form. HADDEXA DES OBEAUX (7) has not appeared since she did not finish the race at her first jumps appearance in a steeplechase (4700m) at Pau. Can get the job done if on her best behaviour. HIRSON (3) missed the frame two runs ago in a hurdle (3900m) at La Teste De Buch then again missed the top three most recently but was only beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth in a steeplechase (3800m) at Compiegne. No surprise to see him back in form. KAP LORD (1) is very fit after two runs back from a break. Finished in the placings last start in a steeplechase (3500m) at this track after a good win by 0.8 lengths in a steeplechase (3800m) at Angers when resuming. Will make his presence felt.
