Formscan - GRAND BALCON (5) finished a good 2nd over this trip in a Marseille Vivaux Class 2 and has every chance of winning this back at a track he relishes. LEPARD (12) was a winner of the penultimate race over 2000m but in a weak claiming race but nevertheless, should be able to go very close iunder a very workable mark. CHARLESQUINT (6) is on a career-low mark and is one for all betting calculations. He can do way better than last few starts suggest. Stablemate AMERICAN FLAG (1) ran well in this division early December and is another short list material as well as VENTS CONTRAIRES (3).
