Last of 11 in a 2450m Class E here 3 weeks ago. Is significantly better than that and can challenge for the win if Sebastien Baude keeps him trotting

8th of 11 finishers on comeback in a 2050m Cabourg Class F on 1 June. Well-drawn and hind shoes off, but appears to need the race

Solid as a rock this season, latterly winning a 2725m Lisieux Class F on 26 May. Breaks from the 3-spot and looks a leading contender

Versatile type that came in 3rd of 14 in a 2400m Amiens Class F a week ago and, perfectly-positioned in front, can make first 5

Raced better than his 7th of 12 finishers in a 2850m Laval Class E last week would suggest. Is plainly in fine form and racing barefoot can make all the difference

Made up for his early-May performance when 2nd of 10 in a 2875m Argentan Class E on 26 May. David Thomain stays faithful and is not incapable of getting that maiden monkey off his back

Returns to the harness code after coming 6th of 8 in a 2850m Laval monte Class E a weeks ago. Trainer in the wagon this time but others still preferred

Below-par in last 3 outings, most recently last of 12 in a 2700m Vire Class E 8 days ago, and is not about to influence the outcome

Was on a fruitful run of form before coming last of 11 in a 2800m Pontchateau Class E a fortnight ago. Should not be too hastily judged though and is thoroughly capable of making amends

2nd of 12 in a 2550m Gournay-en-Bray Class F a month ago. Fitted with 4 pads for the first time and steps up in class with a respectable chance of picking up a minor-place cheque

Last of 10 in a 2400m Amiens Class F last week. Shoes on again and best to keep one's powder dry

Failed to confirm his Cherbourg success when sanctioned in a 3125m Questembert Class F later last month and, at this level, will have his work cut out

Sanctioned early in a 2825m Vire monte Class F when preparing for this 8 days ago. Races first time barefoot but already looks out of his depth

Produced a decent effort to come 3rd of 14 in a 2400m Amiens Class F on 8 June. Pitted against better this time and the draw only compounds matters
