Ballicod has been in good form this year and may well handle this step up in grade. Daguet had had a few runs before successful over hurdles at this meeting last year and is returning from a break today. Etudiant goes well fresh, however, and is not dismissed lightly. DIWELL STANG BLUN was beaten a long when when fifth here in March but is eased in grade and has nothing to fear from Carisandre and Eris on that latest run. La Kalici Forlonge could be better than he’s shown so far and Bandero is getting closer to shedding his maiden tag.
