Well beaten on both his runs this year over fences, the latter at Strasbourg over 4200m in mid-June. Hardly inspiring

Race Overview
Although not a frequent winner, GARE AU MARIN (5) is the selection after a solid effort when third at Clairefontaine in late July over fences. FALKO DES FLOS (2) is a threat after a good run in a Class 2 handicap chase at Strasbourg five days ago. He will not lack for match fitness. NORMANDE (1) looks to have a preference for hurdles, having won four times last year, but she can not be ruled out. PRINCE EXPRESS (3) also merits consideration.
Selection:
5 - 2 - 1
