Quickly sanctioned in Prix du President 2 weeks ago and even at this level, faces a tough task

2nd of 8 finishers a fortnight ago, in a 2850m Vincennes Class D, on return from a 2-months' spell. Won over course and distance in April and is not incapable of repeating

Always gives her best, most recently 4th to KELVALSE CASTELETS (7) in a 2700m Vincennes Class C late-May, and appears to have a decent chance of repeating

Took his game to a new level before being sent for a break. Last of 12, on re-entry, in a 2700m Vincennes harness Class C on 21 June but, if fully-fit, can bring home the bacon

Hardy filly that was sanctioned on re-entry in a 2150m Vichy harness Class D early last month. Has previously won at a superior level, sports a new configuration, appreciates Enghien, but may still be race-rusty

Has not been seen out since trotting 2nd to KEL AIR D'EOLE (11) in a 2700m Vincennes Class C late-April. 4 pads fitted this time and others preferred

Won a Vincennes Class C late-May before faulting in a 2700m Gr.2 at the same venue 10 days later. Has ample ability though and, with application, will not disappoint

Last of 17 when preparing for this in a 2750m Craon harness Class B on 24 June. Just hind shoes on this time but still looks to have too much to do

Makes just 2nd appearance under the saddle, most recently faulting in a 2700m Vincennes harness Class B on 31 May. Unshod behind for the first time, with Mathieu Mottier onboard, but still no more than a minor place chance

Complicated filly dropping back in class after being sanctioned early in Prix du President late-June. Is not without merit but others still easier to back

Bit off more than he could chew when last but one in 2850m Gr.1 Prix du President 2 weeks ago but showed his capacity earlier in the year and is eminently capable of finishing in the mix

Race Overview
A tough campaigner with excellent monte credentials, KILOU D'YMER (4) returns to the code after a much-needed conditioner under harness, and barefoot for the occasion, can get straight down to business. Enjoying something of a renaissance since returning to the monte code, KILOU D'YMER (4) was unable to secure the hat-trick on his return from a spell but he will have come on for the run and can challenge for the win. KELVALSE CASTELETS (7) did not enjoy the best of trips in the Gr.2 Prix Lavater but has been given time to get her morale back and, with application, will not be far from the action. KEL AIR D'EOLE (11) drops back to a more reasonable level and, already a winner under these conditions, can play an important role.

4 - 2 - 7
