LUDOVICUS (13) was responsible for a nice effort last time out when he scored on his jumps debut in a maiden steeplechase (2850m) at this track. Makes plenty of appeal again. ENDYMION (2) wasn't far away when resuming from a layoff last start, beaten one length into second in a steeplechase (2850m) at this track. Will strip fitter and makes plenty of appeal. PLATINA DREAM (12) returned from a spell last start successfully in a steeplechase (2850m) at this track with today's rider S Ishigami aboard Boasts strong second-up stats and looks perfectly placed to add to his record. Decent chance again in this line-up. ZARZARROSA (11) returned from a spell last start with a modest eighth in a steeplechase (2850m) at this track. Will come on from that run and is worth considering.
