ASTREA (2) has finished runner-up in both of her starts to date and is narrowly preferred to go one better over this slightly longer trip. This is a highly competitive contest, and both OSHIA (6) and MEFIE TOI (1) made promising debuts and are open to significant improvement. More was expected from TEMADIVA (4) on her debut at this track, but she remains capable of better and could well bounce back to win this time.

LOUIS OTHON (1) had shown promise prior to his handicap debut, so his run at Saint-Cloud can be seen as below expectations. He has scope for improvement and is given the nod to bounce back and score. DIYAA (10) is highly consistent but tackles this longer distance for the first time. FUJI HANA (8) has also been in solid form recently and cannot be dismissed. BLANCHE SACREE (4) scored over this trip in March and ran well at this track earlier this month.

BELGIAN PRINCE (3) made a solid return from a lengthy break when finishing second on the PSF last month. He should be fitter this time and, now back on turf, looks the one to beat. Both HEBE (6) and GRAZALEMA (10) have shown consistent form in Spain and could prove effective at this level in France. FORCE TRANQUILLE (5) is holding her form well and has done enough to merit consideration, especially as she is a previous winner over this distance.

Plenty hold winning chances in this open handicap. POLYSPEED (2) brings some strong form to the table and is a narrow pick to make a successful handicap debut. CLEOD'OR (1) is consistently competitive and should be involved at the finish once again. MUELHEIMER PERLE (3) is at her best around this distance and would not be a surprise winner in this field. HENRY THE LION (4) must overcome a penalty for his last win but remains a serious contender.

THREE DREAMS (1) has hit the crossbar in two of her last three starts and could be ready to get her head in front in this competitive handicap. BLUFF (8) hasn't won for a while but is consistent and should be in the mix once again. LIVING NELSON (2) is clearly more effective on turf and would not be a surprise winner here. KAPETANIOS (4) arrives in good form and looks well treated off this mark, so must be respected.

SPIRIT GREY (1) has been very consistent on the PSF this year and will appreciate the return to turf. He could finally break a long losing run. ESTOKENIA (3) scored off this handicap mark at Nimes and poses a real threat in this line-up. EKTORIA (7) looked much happier back on grass last time and can go one better here. ROSISSIM (11) has been in top form recently and also enjoys this track.

MAHJOUBA (4) has been very consistent of late and found only one too good in a handicap last month. She can go one better this time. LESBEK (6) showed marked improvement when switching to turf last time and could progress further. ELUSIVE BELARDO (1) is still a maiden but has been consistently placed on the PSF and cannot be ruled out. LILAROSE (8) is chasing a hat-trick after wins in claimers and is another who could shine in this field.

CAMBRONNE (1) has held his form well all year and ran a solid third at ParisLongchamp last month. That effort sets the standard, and he can land this lucky last. BAY D'ARGENT (4) now seems to prefer the PSF but remains very competitive in a race like this. WALLY (2) hasn't raced on turf since 2023 but shouldn't be ruled out. LE BOSS (7) has had just four starts and is open to further improvement.
