No slouch but unplaced in last 2, latterly 8th of 16 in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche on 24 June, and must get his house in order

Complicated trotter that consistently gives his best, when applied. 3rd of 12 in a 2800m Strasbourg Class E a month back, sports a new configuration, but others still easier to back

Made up for some poor runs when 2nd to JERZINHO SPORT (9), at 40/1, in a 2850m Laval Class D 2 weeks ago, but a repeat seems improbable

Had been making good progress elsewhere before losing his action early in a 2875m Class D here late-June. Hind shoes off for the occasion but still looks to have his work cut out

Hard to knock when focused and unshod. 3rd of 11 finishers in a Class D over course and distance late last month. Not a priority but will still have his supporters

At the top of his game over past 3 months, latterly 3rd to JANNIG D'EREVAN (12) in a Class D under these conditions late-May. Has freshness on his side and is not to be underestimated

Sanctioned when heavily-backed in a Class D over course and distance late last month. Has nothing to prove in this category, reverts to racing unshod-behind and, on good behaviour, can make a big splash

Runner-up to JANNIG D'EREVAN (12) in late-May before coming 7th behind JOKER D'OCCAGNES (5) in a Class D over track and trip on 29 June. Is better than that though and looks a respectable first-5 chance

Had a tricky start to the season but came good with victory in a 2850m Laval Class D 2 weeks ago and will not be available at 16/1 this time around. Chance

Prepping shod for this when last of 9 over 2600m at Duindigt on Sunday. Won here 13 months ago, is barefoot this time, and is unlikely to disappoint

No closer than 4th in 7 starts this year, most recently last but one in a 2775m Craon Class D on turf late last month. Barefoot this time but others still preferred

Seldom far off the mark when he can stay focused. Comes here of the back of 2 solid victories and will be expected to garner the lion's share of support
