IMAC WOOD still appeals as potentially well-treated on his French form with a recent wind-op seemingly having helped him regain his spark, so can strike if coping with the quick turnaround. Return Fire largely held his form well last season and is respected, despite the trip perhaps being on the short side for him, with Follow Your Arrow just about preferred for third.
