Forecasts

Verdict

FRANCO D'AUNOU chased home Floueur (now rated 137 for Gordon Elliott) on his hurdles debut in France when last seen and likely has a bright future for new connections. He can open his account, with A Distant Place feared most. Recent C&D winner Benson needs more to defy a penalty.
