MAGIC STARS (3) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1600m at Longchamp, finishing fourth and beaten 1.5 lengths. Has the class to take care of this field. BELLA CIAO (13) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Saint-Cloud, finishing second and only a long neck from the winner at the end of 2100m. Has the class to figure prominently. WARDAMA (12) has been in the money at both runs this time in work and the maiden win looks imminent following a good second over 2000m at this track last time. Fitter and among the main hopes. GAVIAL (4) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 2400m at Nantes, beaten 5 lengths. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat.
