Verdict

Lou du Moulin Mas, The Kew Tour and You're Special look the three to concentrate on in this competitive handicap chase and the vote is given to Lou du Moulin Mas. The selection was a fair second behind Innox last time out off this mark, this looks easier and under conditions that suit he is taken to gain compensation here. The Kew Tour rates the main danger on his latest second behind Lothian Falcon but his best form is on a softer surface and for that reason he is opposed. You're Special is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Millenaire but he is becoming expensive to follow and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Of the remainder Little Big Horse will appreciate this faster surface but looks weighted up to his best and in a trappy affair for the winner we return to Lou du Moulin Mas.
