A smart stayer on the Flat in France for Andre Fabre (dual Group 2 winner), SOBER made the perfect start for his new yard when successful over hurdles at Killarney 6 weeks ago. He makes plenty of appeal returned to this sphere for a stable that has won this race 4 times. Samui was an encouraging third in a handicap over shorter here earlier in the week and is feared. Wild Waves and Dallas Star are others in the mix.
