XYLOPHONE (2) is returning from a spell of five-and-a-half months. Finished fifth at Argentan over 2900m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Xavier Blanchet. Can make an immediate impact for the new mentor. PLAIN BEAU (6) is on a quick turnaround after a solid third over 2400m at Lyon-Parilly nine days ago. Strong run last time and should prove tough to beat. KEEN APPROACH (5) is back after a break of four months. Looking to emulate her win at Deauville All Weather when returning from a spell last prep. Comes here with definite top-three claims. BAKHCHISARAY (3) got the prize two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when sixth over 2200m at Fontainebleau, beaten 8 lengths. In the mix.
