FETE CHAMPETRE has taken well to this sphere so looks the way to go given he can race off the same mark as when a promising second at Ayr last month. Top-weight Defi Sacre can make his presence felt too, especially if the fitting of a visor ekes out some improvement, with Brelan d'As not dismissed either now back at the scene of his recent C&D success.
