Consistently in the mix before being sent for a break after coming 3rd of 10 in a 2950m Saint-Malo Class F last November. Stays shod for comeback and best to wait

Pleasantly surprised with victory in a 2825m Vire Class F earlier this month. Just front pads fitted this time and steps up in class, but still warrants respect

Disappointing on the whole since returning from a break. 9th of 11 in a 2575m Gournay-en-Bray Class F 2 weeks ago, but hind shoes off this time and, from the front row can give this a good go

Useful sort returning to the harness code after coming 6th of 8 in a 2625m monte Class F at La Rochelle 6 days ago. Front pads fitted this time but will still have his supporters

5th of 9 finishers in a 2550m Class F at Gournay-en-Bray last weekend. Shoes on this time and will have little to offer

8th of 10 in a 2600m Morlaix Class F a fortnight ago. Has some ability though and the new configuration may be just the ticket. One to note

Unraced since faulting in a 2775m monte Class E at Les Sables-d'Olonne last September, and has other priorities

Last of 5 in a 3000m Class F at Le Neuborg last Monday and can be ruled out

Has struggled in both codes for some time, most recently sanctioned in a 2550m monte Class H at Gournay-en-Bray a fortnight ago. Shoes on and no threat

Decent 4th of 13, on comeback, in a 2400m Chateaubriant Class F last weekend. Will have come on for the run and, from the front line, can put on a good show

Decent campaigner lower down the ladder on turf, but has not been seen out since trotting 4th of 14 in a 2650m Alencon Class E last October, and is not about to spring a surprise

Back under harness after winning a 2800m Villedieu-les-Poeles monte Class F 3 weeks ago. Here for a change of scenery and can be passed over

Was still being conditioned when last of 14 in a 2850m Laval Class E a month back. Shoes on again and cannot be considered a player

Imposed at Saint-Brieuc before faulting in a 2825m Vire Class F on 8 May, but David Thomain will be loathe to let the same thing happen again. Chance

Was on a fine run of form before coming 6th of 12 in a 2800m Tours Class F a fortnight ago. Placed at Argentan earlier in the year and will be expected to show improvement

Surprising 2nd of 12 in a 2750m Ecommoy Class E early last month. Pleased on lone appearance here but others still preferred

Sanctioned in first 2 this year before winning the next 2, most recently with ease in a 2825m Vire Class F earlier in the month, and makes his Argentan debut with justified ambition

Got straight down to business on re-entry, winning a 2800m Tours Class F in fine fashion. Is confirmed here and looks main danger to JAGUAR FLORAL (17)
