Respectable 4th of 9 in a 2850m Laon Class F 2.5 weeks ago but has never been tested in this category and will struggle to make his mark

Got off the mark superbly [at 16th time of asking] in a 2675m Class F at Le Mont-Saint-Michel on 23 September. In better company this time though and is unlikely to repeat

Respectable 5th of 16 in a 2450m Caen Class E 3.5 weeks ago. Will be fully-fit by now and with Benjamin Rochard reining, can open his Cabourg account

Has had a month to come on since finishing 9th of 12 in a 2550m Reims Class E conditioner. Breaks in front and is unlikely to go down easily. Place chance

Unsupported before breaking into a gallop in a 2625m Cherbourg Class E 10 days ago and appears to have too much to do

Takes a step up in category after finishing 7th of 11 in a 2625m Cherbourg Class E 10 days and is unlikely to generate much interest

Sanctioned, when going well, in a 2450m Caen Class E just under a month ago. David Thomain takes over the reins and will be competitive for a minor place cheque if his charge maintains stride

Put a pair of sanctions behind him to come 3rd of 9 in a 2400m Amiens Class F 11 days ago. Hind shoes off for the occasion and Hughes Levesque will be eager to capitalise on such a good entry

Won 2 on turf before coming 3rd of 11 in a 2850m Laval Class E a month ago but races shod on this occasion and best to wait

Entrusted to a leading driver this time after being sanctioned in a 2675m Le Mont-Saint-Michel Class E early last month. Showed his form that day and looks a decent first-3 chance

Runner-up to KARAMEL DES BOSC (14) here late-August before finishing 8th of 12 in a 2550m Reims Class B a month ago, and others easier to back
L E Simon

Has not been seen out since winning a 2850m Carentan Class D mid-August. Shoes on and best to hold off

Sanctioned in a 2400m Class D at Beaumont-de-Lomagne early-September. Has been a write-off for some time and can be ignored

Last but one in a 2150m Enghien Class D last week. Below-par since winning over shorter here late-August, and is not about to cause an upset

Reassuring 4th of 11 in a 2850m Class B at Meslay-du-Maine a fortnight ago and is capable of making first 5, provided he stays focused

9th of 14, when preparing for this, in a 2800m Rambouillet Class B 10 days ago. Has never disappointed when unshod-behind and, even from 2nd row, is thoroughly capable of giving KORIOLIS DE ZIETTE (3) a run for his money
Cl Lassagne
Race Overview
A new horse over the summer, KORIOLIS DE ZIETTE (3) gave a very good account on his re-entry; he will have come on for the run and, barefoot for the first time, can wrap this up. Just â¬90 from exclusion, KOMEO DU DOME (16) is hard to fault in the day's configuration and looks a serious proposition. First-time barefoot for his Cabourg bow, KAZAK ROYAL (4) will have progressed for his re-entry run and can go close if he takes to the new conditions. KILLER ZOFE (10) won 2 straight before faulting at Le Mont-Saint-Michel, but has been afforded time to recalibrate and the Yoann Lebourgeois-factor cannot be ignored.
