Race Overview
INSTAR DE REVE (2) has been competing in strong races of late without a win, although he was a good second at Compiegne in a Listed hurdle in May and will appreciate the return to fences. He can score from INSIDE MONTLIOUX (6) who ran well when fifth over hurdles recently in a competitive handicap hurdle. IRISH CHANEL (3) is also worth considering and can be involved at the finish. JOLYMIN (4) heads the remainder.
