L'AMIE LARISSA (5) was unplaced two back in a hurdle (3600m) at Compiegne. Made amends last time to fill a minor placing, beaten 4 lengths, in a hurdle (3400m) at Dieppe. Should run well again. ROIMIX (1) has returned in great order this prep. Filled a minor placing when resuming in a hurdle (3500m) at Moulins then scored last time by 2 lengths in a hurdle (3500m) at Royan La Palmyre. No surprise to see him in the finish again. LE DIVIN (2) returns from a 236-day spell. Closed the last campaign when lining up for just the second time, finishing fourth in a hurdle (3600m) at Saint Brieuc. Yet to win over the obstacles from two tries. Ideally placed to perform well. PIRATE REBEL (4) is making his debut over the jumps. Returned from a spell last start and was 35 lengths away in tenth in a flat race over 2600m at Morlaix. Sure to be well-schooled and is going to be hard to beat.
