Race Overview
LE PHILOSOPHE (4) won well by three lengths in the Grand Steeple- Chase De Compiegne (Grade 2) on November 2nd when last seen and can win again back over smaller obstacles this time. His main danger looks like it could be KAMARO D'HUEZ (5) who was fourth in a Grade 3 hurdle at Auteuil last time in late October. GALLIPOLI (3) looks like the each way must. DOCTOR SQUEEZE (2) makes up the shortlist.

4 - 5 - 3
