Runner-up at La Capelle before finishing 2nd to GO ON BOY (2) in 2840m Grand Prix de Wallonie at Mons 3 weeks ago. Is clearly close to her race and is not out of the picture

Has not put a foot wrong since the spring, latterly beating 5 others here in the 2840m Gr.1 Grand Prix de Wallonie at Mons 3 weeks ago, and is not incapable of denying IDAO DE TILLARD (3) once more

Won over 1800m at La Capelle before being denied a run, finishing 3rd to GO ON BOY (2) in 2840m Grand Prix de Wallonie 3 weeks ago. Shod differently this time and Clement Duvaldestin will be eager to put things right
C Sevestre

Won a brace of nordic Gr.1 races before coming 3rd of 8 in Gr.1 2140m Sundsvall Open Trot at Bergsaker on 24 August. Is new to the venue but has remarkable speed and, given the chance, can put it to good use

Competitively-shod this time after finishing 6th to GO ON BOY (2) in 2840m Grand Prix de Wallonie at Mons 3 weeks ago. Has a lot of ground to make up though and will have little to contribute

Left a good impression at La Capelle before finishing 7th of 10 in race of reference and once again appears to have his work cut out

Can prove a handful, latterly sanctioned in a 2600m Cherbourg Gr.3 on 25 September, but is clearly at the top of her game and, barefoot again, must be respected

Surprise 4th in Argentan Gr.2 over a mile before trailing in last but one in an 1800m Gr.2 at La Capelle on 4 September, and is not about to influence the outcome

Blows hot and cold but boasts a solid Vincennes record. Below-par however when 8th of 11 over 2640m at Aby 2 weeks ago and will need to find more

Failed to confirm his Prix Rene Balliere performance when last of 9, to BORUPS VICTORY (4), in 1609m Gr.1 Hugo Abergs at Jagersro late-July. Matthieu Abrivard reining this time and can get a look-in if he keeps his charge focused

Takes first steps in France off the back of a pair of good wins, most recently a valuable mile race at Syracuse a fortnight ago. On back line and, while not a contender, should at least hold his own
Pachino Horse Srls

Classy Swedish trotter that has won 25/30, most recently Gr.1 2140m Sundsvall Open Trot at Bergsaker on 24 August. Thrives over these distances and has a dominant role to play if he takes to Vincennes conditions

Started to get back in the game when 4th in GP de Wallonie 3 weeks ago, but a repeat performance is unlikely to materialise

Race Overview
Simply remarkable over any distance, and shod as he was at La Capelle, IDAO DE TILLARD (3) was very unlucky in the Gr.1 Grand Prix de Wallonie last month and will be expected to exact revenge on the excellent sprinter GO ON BOY (2) who is barefoot for the occasion. Admittedly less well-positioned Swedish phenomenon, FRANCESCO ZET (12), won the Gr.1 Sundsvall Open Trot last time out and his driver knows Vincennes well. AMPIA MEDE SM (1) has sharpened up her game since moving yards and, 3rd at Mons, is unlikely to go down easily.
Selection:
3 - 2 - 12
