FOX TROT (1) finished fourth when fresh from a spell last start in a hurdle (3800m) at Dieppe with today's rider Clement Lefebvre aboard. Key runner who is expected to feature. LE GENE BLEU (3) did fairly well when he finished second in a hurdle (3800m) at Lyon-Parilly two runs back. Franked that form when just 2.75 lengths away in fourth last time out in a steeplechase (4700m) at Nancy. No surprise to see him in the finish. SOPRAN LEGER (6) is taking on the jumps for a second time after he lost the rider at his first attempt in a steeplechase (3900m) at Dieppe two weeks ago. Classy type who was a black-type winner on the flat. Cannot be ruled out after one mishap. SPES ENERGICALL (8) filled a minor prize two back in a steeplechase (3850m) at Fontainebleau. Couldn't match that effort last time out, beaten 36 lengths into ninth in a steeplechase (3900m) at Dieppe. Sure to be thereabouts.
