Formscan - KAMYADOR (4) produced a strong second-place finish over 3900m in a handicap hurdle at this track late last month. The slight drop in trip shouldn't pose any problems, and he looks poised to go one better. PRINCESSE DU LYS (15) is well treated at the weights and caught the eye when third in a Class 3 hurdle at Angers in early September, she could be the main threat. HILL OF BAMBOO (5) ran well over fences at Strasbourg in March and can make his presence felt back over hurdles. NEON HAS (17) was a close second at Saint-Malo two weeks ago and must enter calculations, while FARCEUR DE TEILLEE (11) looks best of the remainder.
