KAP LORD (1) made a winning return from a layoff last time out in a steeplechase (3800m) at Angers, partnered by today's jockey Earine Dubourg. Leading contender. FIDELE AU POSTE (2) could only manage to finish fourth 21 days back in a steeplechase (3500m) at this track. That result followed a solid third in a steeplechase (4000m) at Pau two starts ago. Likely to be thereabouts. IN MEMORIA (6) wasn't popular in betting but returned from a spell on March 4 with a sound third in a steeplechase (4100m) at Compiegne, beaten 6 lengths. Decent chance in this line-up. HOKUSAI VALLIS (4) made a strong return from a layoff last time out in a steeplechase (4200m) at Saint Brieuc, finishing third when partnered by today's jockey Guillaume Viel. Capable of another forward showing.
