Race Overview
BURSARD (7) could be the best option for an open handicap to end the card. He has dropped to an attractive handicap mark and is expected to be competitive after a better run last time when he was fifth at Lyon La Soie 9 days ago. PAS RADINE (10) has been in decent form with four placed runs of late and poses the main threat to the selection. GREENWOOD (5) looks like a sensible option for the each-way backers to latch on to. BELLE ANSE (3) makes up the shortlist.
Selection:
7 - 10 - 5
