Verdict

Halcon Genelardais, Lou du Moulin Mas, All In The Stars and L'Aventure are a handful against the field in a competitive affair with the vote going to Halcon Genelardais. The selection won well last time out over hurdles, he returns to chasing off what remains a fair mark and as he looks a progressive type under conditions that suit he will be hard to beat with his yard continuing in good form. Lou du Moulin Mas rates the main danger as he appears to have improved for a breathing operation and he won well last time when beating Kerstino Two. However he has yet to prove he stays this far and at likely odds he looks worth taking on. L'Aventure is another that could go well as she has won this race in the past and is sure to have the race run to suit. Liam Heard takes a handy three pounds off her back and she should be watched in the market but the suspicion is she will get into her stride too late and she is taken on with this in mind. All In The Stars is another that has conditions to suit and he was going well last time until making a mistake if his jumping holds up he would have definite place claims but that is a big if. Simon looks on a handy weight and he could go well at a price but he looks sure to be taken on for the lead and he is taken on with this in mind. This is wide open and few can be ruled out but for the winner we return to the unexposed Halcon Genelardais.
