Victory in this opening event is likely to be fought out between RED GRACE (2) and BAFANA LINNGARI (9), both of whom are competitive on this track and in good shape. Consistent CRISALSA (10) is capable of posing a threat to those rivals, as is STEPASIDE BELL (4) whose means are sure but whose form is questionable. DAYSANIYA (3) appeals most of the remainder.

A big field and several with claims here, though none make more appeal than PEYTON PLACE (5) who has performed very well on this course recently and could return to success. ATLANTICA (1) and STELLAR JAY (4) demonstrate commendable consistency and deserve to be rewarded with success sooner rather than later. PENNBLE (6) and UN SOIR D'ORAGE (7) are capable of getting into the picture too.

Consistent DARIYANGEL (8) proved he remains competitive off his current mark by finishing 2nd in a handicap last time at this venue and he ought to continue his momentum by fighting for victory. LE BOLERO (5), runner-up in his last two starts, is likely to lead the opposition with reliable WIEBKE (1), proven under the conditions and from a stable in good form, also capable of playing a leading role. MARSHALL LESSING (2) and GOLD DES SOURCES (6) appeal most of the remainder.

ALKINA (2) showed last year that she has the speed to put rivals of this ilk to the sword and, as such, is given the nod on her reappearance. ATTENTIVE (5) has improved in both starts since her comeback and showed enough at Cagnes last time to suggest that she could fight for victory. Newcomers SEDSER (13) and LOVECAYAN (12) aren't without a chance either, while likely improver THIENE (1) is another to consider.

Consistent BELLBIRD (6) is still on the up so looks good value to open her account here having finished 2nd in her last start for the second time in three outings. Back on a track that he enjoys, GRUSHENKA (3) should also play a leading role over a distance he has already proved himself effective. Likely improver WAIT THE STORM (8) and capable PIPER'S HILL (5) ought to give cheek to the aforementioned principals.

LA PELEMOISE (4) returned to form last time and should have a role to play with a repeat of that performance. STRAKO (7) completes the shortlist.

ALBERI (2) caught the eye here last month when a promising debut 3rd over this course and distance and should, with the benefit of that experience, improve to fight for victory. However, GRAND CITY (4) is improving and will also have a leading role to play. Both will need to be wary, though, of newcomers DURYTHME (6) and BORGHAL (7) who represent formidable stables.
