Fandango has fallen in three of his last seven starts and hasn’t raced since October but is still preferred to stablemate La Mome. Toutezibure is preferred to Fancytastic of Isabelle Gallorini’s two runners while Gab Leenders is also double-handed with Sumsam and Exupery. Francois Nicolle employs 9lb claimer Gianni Siaffa to help KOREVSKY overcome his penalties and the ploy can pay dividends and help the Intello gelding, who goes well fresh, record a third victory over the larger obstacles.
