KUCHARSKY (4) failed to complete the course in a hurdle (3600m) at Auteuil two starts back. Turned things around last time when he found one better, beaten 2 lengths, in a steeplechase (3450m) at this track. Can add to the recent impressive effort. MAGUELON (1) made a strong return from a layoff last time out in a steeplechase (3450m) at this track, finishing third when partnered by today's rider Kilian Dubourg. Has ability and strips fitter. Worth including. MESSY (3) has been going well. Saluted in a steeplechase (3450m) at this track two starts back then finished third last time, beaten 5.5 lengths, in a steeplechase (3700m) at Auteuil. Since the latest run he has gone over to the Kevin Plisson yard. Sure to be thereabouts. LOLITA DES MOTTES (5) was eased out of the race in a hurdle (3600m) at Auteuil two starts back. Bounced back last time when she found one better, beaten 15 lengths, in a steeplechase (3500m) at Toulouse. Sure to run well again.
