Race Overview
KARMA DE REVE (1) has dropped in the ratings but remains capable and should be too smart for his rivals. He was a fair sixth in a handicap hurdle at Pau earlier this month on his latest run. STELLOMAKER (2) won at Cholet in early November and has acquitted himself creditably since that success. LITOTE DU LANNIER (7) looks like a sensible option for the each-way players to look at. KEEP CALM DARIYAN (3) is also worth considering.

1 - 2 - 7
