Many of the runners are lightly weighted so both form and experience should give SHE'S BOX OFFICE (4) the upper hand in this race. NYMPHENBURG (2) has finished fourth in her two races and although well beaten in both, should be competitive at this level. EL DIABLO (1) ran below expectations on debut but could improve, while QUICK CHICK (3) is not out of contention dropping in class.

THE DIG (2) is riding high currently and comes off a convincing win. He does have a wide draw to contend with but does hold a few of these runners on that last run. Top of that list is GO JOHNNY GO GO GO (7), who finished second to the selection and is well weighted. RISKI CHOPE (6) is reunited with Marvin Grandin who has already scored a victory with her and should enjoy the drop in trip. EXPLORAR (9) had the top two selections in his sights last time and must have a winning chance.

MUENCHEN (1) will make his comeback after an almost eight-month break but his form is good and he should do well over 2000m for the first time. SPACE GOOD (4) does have better form on the sand but he has run well enough on turf to be competitive at this level. Coming from an in-form yard, OCRA (2) needs to be taken seriously. PERSIANA (3) has won at this course and will benefit from the drop in distance from her last run.

It has been some time since TRANQUIL FORCE (8) last picked up a race victory but she looks ready to end that drought and this could be the day, especially as she will be receiving weight from her rivals. MOABI (4) is in a good vein of form and she must have a winning chance. PIERRE LE GRAND (2) has regained his best form and runs well under Hugo Besnier. With her rating dropping, this could be the ideal race for DENGIE (9) to make a comeback.

SOUS INFLUENCE (1) is unbeaten over this track and trip and also maintains a perfect record with Marvin Grandin. He has plenty in his favour but should not underestimate TOIMY SON (5), a new recruit to the yard of Frederic Sanchez. Also in very good form, MERCI ELIE (2) benefits from a weight allowance. CALA ROSSA (8) will be partnered by Antonio Orani for the first time and can also get involved with teh finish.

An impressive all-the-way winner in her last two starts, BEDDA VITA (1) concedes weight to her rivals but can remain unbeaten in this grade. Runner-up to our selection at the end of May, ZELZANA (8) was never able to trouble her that day but meets her on much better weight terms this time. NEVER LOST (4) returns to the scene of his best performance. MAGIC STORM (2) will be partnered by Marvin Grandin for the first time and can contest the finish.

Placed in all four starts with Hugo Besnier, SOUPIR (6) was only narrowly beaten by HASHTAG JOA (8) last time and meets that rival on better weight terms here. Despite a 5lb penalty, HASHTAG JOA (8) should once again give a very good account. Partnered by Antonio Orani for the first time, PROPRE SOEUR (2) can bounce back to form. Already a winner with Marvin Grandin, LAGOONE CHOPE (1) can also get involved.

An interesting lucky last race. In great form, EXCELSIOR (1) benefits from Marina Brunelli's allowance and could well notch up a second win of the season. UNFURLED (2) will not go down without a fight, having produced a pleasing effort over this course and distance last time out. RIO GRANDE (5) looks capable of defying his penalty. Judged on his early-April success at Le Croise-Laroche, ALICANTO (6) can be very competitive in this field.
