FASHIONABLY (11) finished an encouraging 4th on debut on this course and is likely to fight for victory, as improvement is expected with the benefit of that experience under the belt. NATIVE PEARL (7) has Group I entries to her name and is, despite two disappointing previous outings, ought to acquit herself competitively in a race of this nature. Runner-up to the excellent Calandagan on debut, SILVER SPUR (5) has legitimate claims too on his reappearance having been gelded. PEBBLESSHINYBRIGHT (1

After finishing 4th in a tougher race on the PSF at Chantilly last time, it could pay to side with LA TOUR DU BOIS (6) who proved her efficiency on turf last year when 4th on debut at Le Pin au Haras on soft ground. She will, however, be tested by MANOIR (2) whose consistency and versatility will stand him in good stead. LA VUELTA (3) confirmed the improvement of her previous start (5th) with an encouraging 3rd last time and is likely to make her presence felt too with a repeat of that performan

MANDRES (7), the joint top-rated runner in the race, ought to capitalise on these favourable conditions by opening her account, especially with the benefit of her rider's 1,5kg allowance. She will, however, have to thwart the likely challenge of LOVER WITH A G (9), another joint top-rated entrant whose rider also takes 1,5kg off the back. DORIANELLO (6), a winner on this track last year, makes the trip for this commitment with legitimate ambitions too. TATOO (3) completes the shortlist.

Veteran TALLINSKI (9) caught the eye with a reassuring 3rd at Chantilly last time and has sound references at this venue - albeit without success - so is marginally preferred in this sprint handicap. Veteran GLICOURT (14), twice a winner over this course and distance, is ideally positioned in the starting stalls and has the means to play a leading role too, having finished an encouraging 4th over this track and trip last month.

This is another wide-open handicap and cases can be made for several runners. However, it could be worth siding with veteran ASTURIAS ROAD (10) whose 3 career victories were all achieved over this course and distance. BARBUDA (3) is, like the selection, also favourably positioned in the starting stalls, so has legitimate ambitions here on her seasonal reappearance. TWO TWO TWO (5), although out of sorts, isn't incapable of making her presence felt either, having finished 4th over track and trip

Inconsistent of late, although particularly efficient with Australian blinkers, TEMPO (6) seems the most likely winner of this race, especially if judged on the form of his last start (2nd) in a 1300m PSF handicap at Chantilly last month. RUE MIA (8) fits a similar profile, though, having finished 3rd on the turf at Chantilly last Monday, so should fight for victory. WAHAYEB (11) lines up here in good form and physical condition with legitimate ambitions too, after finishing 3rd over course and

After finishing 4th once, 3rd three times, and 2nd on another five occasions (including the 3 most recent outings) in his last nine starts, KENOR (4) ought to be rewarded for his consistency with an overdue and well-deserved third career success. RED SUGAR (8) is, however, a hard-knocking mare who is likely to pose a threat, having shown her form and well-being with a reassuring 3rd over 3000m at Fontainebleau last week. MITARC (9), who won this race last year, has been primed to make a bold def
