Formscan - METASEQUOIA (3) was a decent second in a Class 3 chase in early April and can be expected to be fit after a layoff. He was second in April in a Grade 2 chase at this track behind Gex, when not beaten far. LA MARCHE BLEUE (1) can make the selection work hard for the win. He won by 2.5L last month at this track and was second in the Prix Ferdinand Dufaure Chase (Grade 1) on May 21st. NIKO HAS (2) won recently over fences at Clairefontaine in early September and looks best of the remainder.
