Race Overview
EMID'IO PEPE (1) was a pleasing second on his latest start over course and distance in a Class 1 handicap hurdle and can defy top weight. LEBANDACARL (4) showed plenty of promise in three starts last year and can make life difficult for the selection on his handicap debut. LORENZO DU CHENET (2) can make his presence felt. He has decent course form and should be on the premises. NONOLETA (9) has a good racing weight and can be competitive. MON PETIT PRINCE (10) is another to consider each way.
Selection:
1 - 4 - 2
