A 5-time winner in France (twice in Cross Country events) J'ARRIVE DE L'EST shaped encouragingly starting out for his new yard when chasing home re-opposing Final Orders over C&D in December. It's feasible to think he'll come on for that run and with cheekpieces back on he can reverse placings on these more favourable terms. Final Orders was impressive that day though and commands serious respect. David Cottin pair Placenet and Iceo Madrik are also respected.
