A 15-start maiden who failed to convince in his first appearance at this level last time (7th), even with all 4 shoes removed for the first time, in a 2900m claimer on this course on 12 March

Inconsistent but is very experienced at this level and has sound references - seldom far off the mark on a going day, which he confirmed with a reassuring 4th on this course in a 2900m claimer on 12 March

Won a 2875m claimer at Vincennes in January and acquitted himself competitively in stronger races/fields in both subsequent outings - finished 7th over 2650m at Bordeaux on 9 March. Respect back at this level

Unreliable but capable performer with sound references at this level in the same configuration (barefoot). Showed his form and well-being by finishing 4th over 2550m at Reims on 25 February

Capable but inconsistent mare with sound references in claiming races and against better opposition at a higher level. Didn't go unnoticed when finishing 6th over 2650m at Laval on 7 March

Inconsistent but is very experienced at this level and has sound references - rarely finishes far off the mark on a going day, which she confirmed with a reassuring 3rd in 2525m claimer at Bihorel-les-Rouen recently

Went off the boil before making a splash by winning in his first start in the claiming category over 2525m at Bihorel-les-Rouen on 10 March. Confirmation expected

Unreliable and currently out of sorts but has references at this level under these conditions so should fare better in a race of this nature, despite finishing a well-beaten 11th over 2850m at Vincennes last month

Achieved his last success in April 2022 and has references at a higher level but is no longer the force of old. Hasn't gone unnoticed in recent outings at this level - was 5th in a 2100m claimer at Vincennes last month
