Verdict

DRAMATURGY (10) has three placings from five appearances this preparation and last start finished 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 4 ½f at this track. Key runner who should feature in the finish. ANGE RHAPSODIE (9) showed good early speed and led around the bend last start before being cut down, finishing fourth and beaten 3 lengths over this journey at this track. Will take catching. LE RIRE (8) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 4 ½f at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time. VOID (4) was well in the market when resuming last start but failed to threaten when a disappointing 11th at this track over 4 ½f. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. One of the better hopes.
