UNIVERSAL WIND (7) took a tumble in a hurdle (3800m) at Strasbourg two starts back. Made amends last time to get the prize by 4 lengths in a hurdle (3900m) at Nimes. Tough to stop again. EMIR CHOP (1) was fresh from a spell last time out and making his first appearance over the obstacles but took a tumble on that occasion in a hurdle (3900m) at Nimes. Expecting a better display this time. SAINT CRUSH (10) fell in a hurdle (3900m) at Bordeaux two starts back. Made amends last time when he found one better, beaten 4 lengths, in a hurdle (3900m) at Nimes. Expect the good recent form to stack up. BONAPARTE FORLONGE (2) finished fourth two runs ago in a hurdle (3650m) at Mont-de-Marsan. Was far more impressive last time when he got the cash in a hurdle (3900m) at La Teste De Buch. Hard to fault on that most recent effort.
