In fine shape since returning to competition, latterly a fast-finishing 2nd of 8 in a 2850m Laval Class E late last month and looks assured a place on the podium

In the frame in last 3, most recently 3rd of 11 finishers in a 2525m Class E at Les Andelys a fortnight ago. Is not about to lose her maiden status but the retention of Yoann Lebourgeois will not harm her cause

Produced a brace of good efforts before finishing 6th of 10 in a 2450m Caen Class D on 20 June. Fitted with four pads for the first time and, from the 3-spot, can get a look-in
A Dabouis

Got off the mark in a 2400m Amiens Class F 3 weeks ago. Is well-positioned on the front line but may just be biting off more than she can chew on this occasion

Showed improvement 2 weeks ago when 3rd of 8 in a 2525m Class E at Les Andelys. 4 pads fitted this time but will have nothing to bring to the party
Ecurie Du Cojeul

Sent for a break after her good Cholet debut, and returned victoriously in a 2975m Jallais Class G a month ago. Takes on better this time, but starts in front and can play a small role
Ecurie La Tour De Vandel

Last but one, on re-entry, in a 2200m Caen Class D on 24 June. Will have progressed for the run, but still not a priority

Made up for her Rambouillet sanction with maiden victory in a 2850m Laval Class F 10 days ago. In better company this time, but nevertheless looks a major player
Ec Wave France

Produced a good effort on comeback mid-June when 4th of 13 in a 2850m Laval Class E. Has masses of untapped potential and every chance of opening her metropolitan account

3rd, a place behind LIMA MARY, in a 2850m Laval Class E late-June. Unlikely to strike gold here but can still hold her own. First-5 prospect
Ecurie Tony Le Beller

Debuted nicely at Le Mans before winning a 2525m Class G at Savigny-sur-Braye early last month. Should appreciate the Enghien profile and steps up in category with legitimate ambition
Ch Germain

Sanctioned in all 3 starts to date, most recently a 2850m Laval Class F 10 days ago. David Thomain drafted in for the occasion, but other more attractive options available

Lost her maiden status in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche on 17 June. Form is clearly heading in the right direction but handed a tough draw and, in this company, will have limited chances
S Van Den Brande

Trounced on debut at Rambouillet before imposing with Franck Ouvrie in a 2825m Class F at Le Croise-Laroche on 17 June. Nicolas Bazire reining this time but the draw will do her no favours
Mme Y Guedj
Race Overview
Not one of the principal protagonists has been fortunate with the draw but it is hard to ignore the promising LONG ISLAND (9) who made a most encouraging re-entry at Laval a month ago. LAUREATE DRY (11) steps up in category but won sufficiently well last time out that a repeat performance is a distinct possibility. LOULIANA DE VANDEL (8) starts wide but the nature of her Laval score nevertheless augurs well for her chances. Starting from the inside line, LIMA MARY (1) is plainly close to her race and the engagement of Alexis Collette will do her prospects no disservice.
Selection:
9 - 11 - 8
