Race Overview

ALWAYS LOVE YOU (1) won over fences at Pau in late January and should have no issues on his return to hurdles. He can score from KALEB (3) who won over hurdles at Market Rasen (GBR) last May and was fifth on his latest start in mid-September over hurdles. He making his French debut. UNDENIABLE ALIBI (5) won at Ayr (GBR) on his last start over fences last September when trained in Ireland. He can make things interesting on his French debut. FILE AU POTEAU (7) is also worth considering.
