IRESINE (1) is having his first run since December 8. Goes very well when fresh - has not been out of the money in seven first-up runs and did win over 2400m at Longchamp at the start of last prep. Can return in winning form. DARING PRINCE (2) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fifth over 2000m in the G2 Prix D'Harcourt at Longchamp. Will strip fitter and is sure to be about the mark. RAIMONDIN (3) was too good when resuming in an easier race over 2300m at Angers last start, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Fitter for that last hitout and must be respected. LE COMBAT CONTINUE (6) could only manage eighth when second-up last start over 2000m in the G3 Prix Allez France at Longchamp but is yet to miss the placings when third-up. Better placed this time and can feature.
