Formscan - Veteran TURANIA (2) was an easy winner of a similar contest over the same course and distance earlier in the month and, on that evidence, the 2,5kg penalty is unlikely to prevent him from winning again. SAINT LANGIS (11) and AUEN ADVENTURE (6) finished 2nd and 4th respectively in the same race, and they ought to make their presence felt on these revised weight terms. However, a bigger threat could come from BARBADIN (3) who, although out of sorts, has dropped to a competitive mark and will appreciate heavy ground.
