Last of 6 in a 2700m Class D here 10 days ago and, quite simply, runs on a prayer

8th of 9 in a 2700m Class C here a fortnight ago after twice pleasing across town. In this company though, will struggle to make her mark

Produced a remarkable effort to win 2700m Gr.2 Prix Camille de Wazieres here on 6 September. It was not unexpected in her own camp and, on good behaviour, will be no easy touch

Races barefoot for the occasion after prepping for this, coming last of 10, in a 2825m Chartres harness Class B on 13 September. Will nonetheless need to show another side

Put on a good show to come 2nd to KAYA DREAM (4) in Gr.2 Prix Camille de Wazieres here earlier in the month. Shoes off for the occasion and, with form maintained, could pleasantly surprise

Ran 2nd over course and distance before coming 4th of 6 finishers in race of reference. Barefoot this time and can pick up another cheque

Could have finished in the money behind KAYA DREAM (4) in Gr.2 Prix Camille de Wazieres here on 6 September had she not faulted. Paul Ploquin knows her well and will be keen to make amends. Attention

3rd to KAYA DREAM (4) in Gr.2 Prix Camille de Wazieres here earlier in the month. Already a Gr.2 winner under these conditions and, in current form, may just be the horse to beat

Gr.1-winning filly that finished a lacklustre 5th of 6, on re-entry, in 2700m Gr.2 Prix Camille de Wazieres here earlier in the month. Will have come on for the race though and has every chance of imposing

Race Overview
A veritable steamroller in 2023, KYT KAT (9) returns to his distance of choice after having reassured in the Gr.2 Prix Camille de Wazieres here earlier in the month, and can have his way this time. Winner on that occasion, at 20/1, KAYA DREAM (4) should again have a good hand to play, but she will first have to defer to Gr.1 winner, KYRIELLE DES VAUX (10), who will be expected to improve on her 5th that day. Tenacious runner-up when shod, KALIF LANDIA (6) races first-time barefoot and a place on the podium is well within his reach.
Selection:
9 - 10 - 4
