Debuts under the saddle after 5 straight harness sanctions, most recently a 2700m Thouars Class H mid-September, and can be confidently passed over

Respectable 5th of 10 in a 2750m Ecommoy Class E 2 weeks ago but has a lot more to find this time around

Sanctioned in 3 of last 4, most recently a 2450m Caen Class E 2.5 weeks ago. Has little aptitude for the monte game and can be ruled out

Reassuring 3rd of 11 in a 2775m Class E at Les Sables-d'Olonne a month ago. Gets the green-light to race at Laval and with front shoes off, could pleasantly surprise

Got off the mark at Le Mont-Saint-Michel on 18 August before missing out by little for the repeat in a 2675m Class E at the same venue 3 weeks later. Has a lot more to give and makes Laval debut with a realistic chance of imposing

Ran 2nd under the saddle at Pornichet before coming 6th of 15 in a 2800m Bernay Class E harness conditioner late-August. Comes here fresh but nevertheless appears to have too much to do

Valiant 6th of 13 in a 2200m Vincennes Class E early last month. Is proven under these conditions and has a reasonable chance of finishing close

Opened her autumn account with solid victory in a 2200m Langon Class E a fortnight ago. Won here last February and can play an active role. Place chance

Opened her account on 19 August before faulting in a 2750m Ecommoy Class E on 8 September. Sports modified shoeing and the engagement of Alexandre Abrivard will only work in her favour

Tricky filly that reassured at Rochefort-sur-Loire before faulting in a 2600m Class E at Le Mont-Saint-Michel on 18 August. Comes here fresh but represents no more than a minor place prospect

Imposed at La Capelle before faulting in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 2.5 weeks ago. Drops back in category and will be expected to redeem himself and win this
