Verdict

Having been runner-up the last twice, and clear of the rest on the latter occasion, KASHI is worth a chance to gain a deserved victory back up in trip. Champ Royal is also in top and regarded as a danger, while Gringo D'Ainay looks the pick of the handicap debutants.

  1. KASHI (FR)
  2. CHAMP ROYAL (FR)
  3. GRINGO D'AINAY (FR)
