CALICO made a promising return from 7 months off when runner-up here a month ago, worn down only late on, and he can build on that effort to get back to winning ways. The biggest threat could come from In Excelsis Deo, who also shaped encouragingly at this venue on his reappearance, with Aucunrisque not discounted on only his fifth chase start.

  1. CALICO (GER)
  2. IN EXCELSIS DEO (FR)
