Formscan - Well-bred YOOX (5) ventures into the unknown over this marathon distance for the first time but does so with legitimate ambitions. He gets the nod ahead of SIR SILJAN (6), after an encouraging debut on French soil, and improving last-start winner CATCH FIRE (1) who steps up in class but is open to further progress. LA GUERCHE (7) ran well enough in a recent Quinte+ to suggest that she is competitive for a podium berth in a race of this nature.
