GRANDGADOR (2) returned from a spell last start with a win in a cross-country (4500m) at Nancy with today's rider Kilian Dubourg steering. Generally goes well second up, with four wins and zero placings from six runs. Fitter and sure to go well again. DONNE LE CHANGE (4) returns from a 168-day spell. Hasn't raced since he took a tumble in a cross-country (4700m) at this track. Sure to be primed and prove hard to beat. BELABRA (9) did a good job to finish third two back in a steeplechase (4250m) at Argentan then improved sharply to record a big win in a cross-country (4500m) at Lyon-Parilly 22 days ago, arriving 7 lengths ahead of her rivals. Expect the good recent form will stack up. HILLICO CONTI (6) has returned in good style this preparation over the jumps. Placed when resuming in a cross-country (4600m) at Fontainebleau then finished second last time, beaten 3.5 lengths, in a cross-country (4600m) at Fontainebleau. Will be a force once again.
