Has thrived since returning to racing barefoot, latterly 4th of 14 in a 2700m Segre Class E 11 days ago. Boasts a fine record at the venue and, from the front row, can give this a good go

Unbeaten in 4 starts this year, latterly romping in a 2625m Cherbourg Class E on 16 June. Front pads fitted again and will take all the beating

Authoritative winner of a 2875m Enghien amateurs Class F, on re-entry, late last month. Eric Raffin in the sulky this time and looks main threat to HELIOS DJEMA (2)

Reassuring 3rd of 17 in a 2675m Class D at Le Mont-Saint-Michel 2 weeks ago. Starts on the front line but cannot be considered a priority

Generous type that came 2nd of 13, at 23/1, in a 2450m Caen Class F on 24 June. Change of drivers but not an obvious choice this time around

7th to FINGER DES BORDES (8) in a 2800m Pontchateau Class E mid-June, when being conditioned. Shoes on and best to hold off

Took some time to get going this term but runner-up in last 2, latterly to FINGER DES BORDES (8) in a 2800m Pontchateau Class E mid-June, but represents no more than a minor place chance

Imposed at Pontchateau at 100/1 mid-June before coming 6th, behind GIANINA BELLA (9), in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 3 weeks ago. Is no champion but nevertheless has the capacity to pick up come crumbs

Blows hot and cold but is plainly in form, most recently 4th of 16 in a 2700m Vincennes Class D 3 weeks ago. Olivier Raffin reins this time and will be competitive for a first-5 spot

Sprang an 18/1 surprise winning a 2750m Class E at La Capelle on 16 June, but a repeat seems improbable

Would have finished 2nd/3rd behind HELIOS DJEMA (2) in a 2625m Cherbourg Class E on 16 June had she stayed in stride. Benjamin Rochard at the helm this time and should figure prominently if he can keep her trotting

Facile winner of a 2975m Jallais Class E mid-June. Has never disappointed here, incurs the penalty but Eric Raffin will be ably replaced by Damien Bonne this time. Chance

Sanctioned twice after winning at Vincennes, most recently in a 2950m Vichy Class D mid-June, and others easier to trust

Disappointing of late despite having bags of ability. Sanctioned in a 2100m Vincennes Class C on 23 June and must get his house in order

13th of 16, on return to competition, in a 2675m Class D at Le Mont-Saint-Michel a fortnight ago. Front shoes off this time and, if fully fit, can get a look-in
