Consistent hard-knocker with sound references in the handicaps off a higher mark. Finished 11th in recent Quinte+ handicaps, at Chantilly over 1200m and, most recently, over track and trip on 18 May. Dark horse

Revealed early promise but was sparingly raced last year and, on the evidence of his reappearance (11th) at Compiegne over 1400m on 31 May, appears to have lost his way. Others preferred on his handicap debut

Made a winning start on Fernch soil over 1400m at Saint-Cloud in April but finished unplaced in subsequent outings, the latest over 1200m at Saint-Cloud on 25 May. Best kept safe in his first handicap start in France

Made an encouraging reappearance on 18 May when winning a course-and-distance handicap on his return from an 8-month absence and a resultant 3kg penalty isn't likely to halt his momentum. One to beat

Confirmed the promise of his comeback (4th) at Divonne by winning over 1700m at Saint-Brieuc on 9 May, so has to be taken seriously off an unchanged mark. Competed at Group III level as a three-year-old

Returned to form with a reassuring/improved 2nd in a 1350m claimer at Angers on 21 May and reverts to the handicaps off of a reduced (1kg) mark. Candidate for success

Didn't go unnoticed when finishing 5th behind CENTENARIO (4) over this track and trip on 18 May. Not taken lightly

Would've regained freshness after a disappointing 8th in a 1200m handicap at Marseille-Borely on 24 April. Has won on this course

Bounced back to form, having dropped to his current mark, with an improved 2nd in a conditions race over 1200m at Marseille-Borely on 27 May. Needs to confirm that improvement to have a say

Unplaced in all 5 starts this year and has dropped in the weights/rating a total of 2,5kg as a result. Best just to watch after a disappointing 9th in a 1200m conditions race at Marseille-Borely on 27 May

Lightly raced four-year-old gelding with sound references/form credentials, including a creditable 5th on his handicap debut at Toulouse (1400m). Must bounce back from his 7th in a 1350m claimer at Angers (21 May)

Unreliable colt with inconsistent handicap form, albeit off higher marks. Dropped another 1kg after finishing a well-beaten 14th in a 1600m handicap at Saint-Cloud on 14 May
