KING D'ALENE (8) returns from a 355-day spell. Concluded the last campaign finishing ninth in a steeplechase (3500m) at Auteuil, beaten 39 lengths. More than capable jumper. %200% Very capable and has a good strike-rate over the jumps. Key chance who is expected to be right in the finish. JACASSE CAMARA (4) has been mixing his form this campaign over the jumps. In the placings when resuming in a steeplechase (3800m) at Angers then finished 8 lengths from the winner last time in sixth in a hurdle (3800m) at Fontainebleau. Cannot be left out. MELGARRY (1) has not raced since he parted ways with the rider at his first jumps appearance in a steeplechase (4000m) at Pau. Deserves another chance and is worth including. MANDARIN BASC (3) has been mixing his form this campaign over the jumps. In the placings when resuming in a steeplechase (3800m) at Angers then finished 10 lengths from the winner last time in fourth in a steeplechase (4000m) at Durtal. Expect a return to form.
