The majority of these are having their first start since arriving from France so the market could prove a decent guide. KALDOUN DES ROCS (2) shaped nicely when second on debut finishing behind a useful performer at Compiegne in March. Could prove the one to beat representing the all-conquering Dan Skelton team. POURQUOI PAS PAPA (6) did well when runner-up at Clairefontaine first time out although that form was diminished with the winner failing to land a blow on his UK debut recently. Narrow French winner THEWOODCORNER (7) cannot be ruled out having joined top trainer Nicky Henderson. MACKTOAD (5) also needs to be considered.
