On a decent run of form these days, latterly 5th of 9 in a 2950m Toulouse Class C 3 weeks ago. Would, however, be preferred at a lower level

Good future prospect making first start since coming 2nd of 10 in a 2700m Vincennes Class D late-May. Shoes on though and best to wait

Last but one, on return to competition, to KYLEBEAU DU LUOT (9) in a Class E over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Will have progressed for the run and looks a serious candidate

Steps back up in class after dominating a 2850m Vincennes claimer on 5 September. Unlikely to repeat but the draw will do his prospects no disservice

Produced 4 good efforts before failing to fire, coming last of 8 in a 2775m Class E at Les Sables-d'Olonne late-August. Returns fresh, is ideally-placed in front, and should logically play an active role

Unraced since finishing 11th of 13 in a 2850m Brehal Class E 2 months ago. Has looked ordinary this term and can be ruled out

Returns to racing clockwise after running [a somewhat unlucky] 6th of 12 in a 2700m Vincennes Class D early last month. Is plainly in form and looks good enough to make first 5

Failed to confirm his Cabourg performance when sanctioned in a 2950m Toulouse Class C on 20 September. Starts wide and others easier to back

Comfortable winner of a Class E over course and distance 3 weeks ago. Has shown a different side since starting to race barefoot and, with Lebourgeois in the bike, can defy the draw and repeat

Courageous 5th of 10 in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 3.5 weeks ago. Won twice right-handed over the summer and will not be far off the mark if Franck Nivard successfully navigates the start

Encouraged at Vire before running 7th to KYLEBEAU DU LUOT (9) in a 2450m Class E here 3 weeks ago. Not a priority but can play a small part if he gets off on the right foot

6th of 10, a place behind KOKA RIGHT (10), in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 3.5 weeks ago. Honest mare with form at the venue but still no more than a minor place prospect

8th of 16, behind KYLEBEAU DU LUOT (9) in a 2450m Class E here 3 weeks ago. Proved himself right-handed at Brehal and will not be far off the mark if David Thomain manages to keep him trotting

Has not been seen out since faulting early in a 2150m Vichy Class D on 3 August. Has had time to recalibrate and will be no pushover if Anthony Barrier assures his initial strides

Got off the mark at Le Sap before faulting in a 2725m Lisieux Class F 3 weeks ago. Takes a big step up in category and the draw only compounds matters

14th of 16, behind KYLEBEAU DU LUOT (9,) in a 2450m Class E here 3 weeks ago. Has bags of talent but stays shod and will not be given a hard race
