FormscanBy Tom Weekes - JEU DE PIC is a 12-race maiden but ran well in a similar race last month and should cope with softening ground. The selection has been frustrating in his career thus far but nonetheless had useful hurdle runs last summer and, on his second chase start at Killarney, bumped into a nicely handicapped winner, with Meehall finishing third and three of today’s other rivals further behind. Western Model has run two useful races in recent times and while he remains fairly treated from a rating of 94, he would prefer good ground. General Hubble is able at this level but would also prefer a sound surface.
