Race Overview
LE MERLOT (4) has been running well over fences recently. He won at Auteuil in November in a handicap chase and was second twice over fences after that at Pau, with the latest in mid-January. Back over hurdles is not a concern and he can score from IL Y A (2) who failed over fences last time but was a good second at Compiegne in late October before that. PARAY (6) can make the top three. KIMFLY (7) makes up the shortlist.

4 - 2 - 6
