Formscan - FISTON DE BECON (5) looks like the best option in a competitive handicap hurdle. He was a good second last time in a Listed hurdle at this track in early October and can go one better this time. ATHENA DU LUY (6) is a danger and was fourth in a Listed hurdle in mid-October at this track when last racing. HOOKER DE BRENUS (9) has a good chance each way and won in a Class 4 hurdle at Saint-Brieuc late last month. MONTABELLA (4) reverts to hurdles after some chase runs and warrants respect.
