5/4

Comment: Has a nice pedigree (by Showcasing); ran well when beaten a head at La Teste De Buch over 7f (maiden) 50 days ago; in the mix last time (finished runner-up); clear chance as runners from this stable always merit close inspection and his breeding catches the eye.

Comment: Admirably consistent; has won at this track; produced an encouraging effort (third of 14, beaten 2½l) over 7½f at Pont De Vivaux (handicap) on New Year's Day; layoff to overcome.

Comment: Good effort when 1l runner-up over 6½f at Deauville (handicap) last month; still winless and defeats stacking up (ten on the bounce); Mickael Barzalona a noteworthy booking.

Verdict: PURPLE RAIN can be forgiven an underwhelming run last time and he knows how to win. Beau Gars and Lover Song can give the selection something to think about.

Comment: Can be a player at this level; finished fourth but wasn't beaten too far (3½l) over 7½f at Deauville (handicap) last month; jockey booking heightens interest; big player if finding his best form.

Ignol

Jockey: Tony Piccone Trainer: Henri Alex Pantall Age/Wt: 4/9-2 F: 065806 OR: 33

11/2

Comment: Creditable effort to finish sixth, beaten just under 2l (Deauville, dropped back to 5½f) last month in a claimer; hails from a good trainer but managed just one success in his career to date; tends to find at least one too good; may be vulnerable.

8/1

Comment: Not disgraced when fifth at Deauville three weeks ago in a claimer; looks likely to be involved given there's a paucity of good recent form on offer in this contest and his last run was encouraging.

Smile For Me

Jockey: Angela Daifi Trainer: Christophe Escuder Age/Wt: 3/9-3 F: 902050 OR: 38

17/2

Comment: Likes left-handed tracks; has won here previously; failed to land a blow when tenth of 16 over 6½f at Deauville (handicap, close behind Lover Song) four weeks ago; warrants respect operating off a reduced mark and has shown she can be competitive fairly recently.

9/1

Comment: Tenth beaten 6l at ParisLongchamp over 7f (handicap, very soft) 11 days ago; reunited with Marvin Grandin, the pair have built a good partnership; likely to be a threat with drop back in trip looking the right move and he is running off a lower mark.
