Formscan - JAVA (5) was a decent second at this track in a Grade 3 chase when last seen late last month and is a marginal choice ahead of KLITCHKO DE BELAIR (1) who ran a pleasing race when he was fourth in a Grade 3 chase at this venue in mid-November. LE LISTRAC (2) is one to include in all of the place bet permutations. FILE AU POTEAU (4) warrants respect and can be involved at the business end.
