Verdict

STRONGBOWE's propensity to miss the kick means that there are risks attached, but he's very capable when things drop right and the 5-y-o is worth chancing in this wide-open handicap. Safran wasn't beaten far over C&D a couple of weeks ago and he is one of several viable alternatives, along with recent winners Ugo Gregory and Oso Rapido, while the unexposed Abbey Heights also needs considering.

  1. STRONGBOWE (FR)
  2. SAFRAN (FR)
  3. UGO GREGORY
