Formscan - POMPANO (3) has been admirably consistent this year, highlighted by a fine second in the Grande Course de Haies de Printemps (Grade 3) at Auteuil in late April. He can play a leading role under Theo Chevillard. JUMPER BAIE (4) looks the main danger after an encouraging third in a Listed hurdle at this venue in May. IBAN ROQUE (8) has placed on all three starts this season and appeals as a solid each-way option, while KRISTAL DU SEUIL (6) is another capable of being involved.
